The Mobile Tools for the Java Platform (MTJ) project extends the Eclipse SDK to provide an environment for developing Java ME applications for mobile devices. MTJ, itself, is an extensible environment that exists to allow vendors to customize for the diverse device world, providing a framework that can be customized and extended for mobile developers. This tutorial will hit on both aspects of MTJ. It will show the end to end life cycle of a simple Java ME project using the tools provided by MTJ. It will follow this with information about extending the MTJ framework to show developers how to create and add custom SDKs and other framework providers.
