Introduction

In an earlier four-part series for InformIT, I introduced the basics of Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) development. J2ME is a slimmed-down version of the venerable Java 2 Standard Edition (J2SE) designed for mobile computing devices with limited display, bandwidth, storage, and processing capabilities. In my previous article, I built a simple application named AddressBook that demonstrated J2ME's GUI and data-storage capabilities (using the J2ME Record Management System). In this article, we'll take a huge leap forward by adding support for XML data retrieval to our application, using the Open Source kXML parser—the first XML parser built specifically for J2ME.
