Hello Oracle!
I got some suggestions how to make Java ME mutch better.
- Increase the support of more devices, such as Raspberry Zero, Banana Pi, BeegleBone, NanoPi and so on. Look at http://wiringpi.com/ which uses C to control the GPIO pins from all Raspberry Pi's.
- Have a look how www.pi4j.com they have structure their page. Oracle should do the same.
- Show a benchmark how fast Java ME is compared to C. C-programmers still think Java is very slow.
- Create a video tutorial how to use Java ME. I think very few people are using Java ME due to lack of support. I have tried to use Java ME, but it's too difficult to understand what to use to make it work.
- This is the best one: Show how to use Java ME with Java EE. Then you can create web applications who controlls the GPIO pins = Internet Of Thing. I have combine Pi4J + Java Server Faces. Works great! Unfortunately Pi4J is for Java SE and not Java ME.
Here is my GitHub for embedded systems and web applications with Java: https://github.com/DanielMartensson/Embedded-Systems
I would like to help Oracle create a motivation to use Java ME. But I can't do that without make Java ME to work first. My suggestion is that if show me how to use and install Java ME, I can create lots of projects on a new repository at my GitHub.
Now to my question:
When does Oracle update Java ME from 8.3 to 8.x ?
Best regards
