Sony Ericsson10 How to use Capuchin? 1. Packaging pure Flash Lite content - full Flash UI, no Java service access Flash games and apps encapsulated in a MIDlet suite (*.jar), using Java ME distribution infrastructure and security mechanisms. Flash games and apps encapsulated in a MIDlet suite (*.jar), using Java ME distribution infrastructure and security mechanisms. 2. Java MIDlet using Flash Lite for the UI layer - full Flash UI, Java services Flash Lite handles the entire presentation layer while Java ME is used as a service provider, feeding the presentation layer with necessary data. Flash Lite handles the entire presentation layer while Java ME is used as a service provider, feeding the presentation layer with necessary data. 3. Java MIDlet using Flash Lite for parts of the UI - Java UI and Flash UI, Java services In cases where it is not feasible to use Flash Lite as a full presentation layer, Flash Lite could be used for presentation of some UI components, for example menus in 3D games.
