Hi all,

I am developing an application that enumerates all files in public phone directories for music files. Our baseline phone is something like the Nokia 6230, which I notice from the developer documentation has the MMAPI JSR for music playback but not the FileConnection API for sourcing the actual files. Are there any approaches I can use here instead of the FileConnection API? Does the 6230 permit access to memory card via J2ME applications?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Many Thanks,
Paul

Hi Paul,

Then answer is no. You do need to have JSR-75 and the FileConnection Opt Pack in order to get access to filesystem.

Note that Nokia 6230i does support FileConnection and you can access the filesystem (and memory card) using it - http://www.forum.nokia.com/devices/6230i

Hope this helps!

Thanks for the quick response. So I guess the MMAPI API on the 6230 is for playing streamed content back only then?

"So I guess the MMAPI API on the 6230 is for playing streamed content back only then?"

downloaded content. Streaming is not possible on 6230
or then audio files stored in the JAR file

Just as an addition, to play files from file system, you do not need to have the fileconnection-permissions, but to browse and find the files you want to play, you most definitely need read-access
