WTK 2.5.2 has been integrated into Java ME SDK 3.0. While you are welcome to use WTK 2.5.2, we highly recommend the newer feature-rich Java ME SDK 3.0.
The Sun Java Wireless Toolkit (formerly known as J2ME Wireless Toolkit) is a set of tools for creating Java applications that run on devices compliant with the Java Technology for the Wireless Industry (JTWI, JSR 185) specification and the Mobile Service Architecture (MSA, JSR 248) specification. It consists of build tools, utilities, and a device emulator.
What's in WTK 2.5.2
The Sun Java Wireless Toolkit implements impressive capabilities which are exposed through standard APIs. The APIs are defined through the Java Community Process (JCP):
The Sun Java Wireless Toolkit 2.5.2 includes all of the advanced development features found in version 2.2, 2.5, 2.5.1 such as MIDlet signing, certificate management, integrated over-the-air (OTA) emulation, push registry emulation, and more.
This release of the Sun Java Wireless Toolkit includes Nokia's Scalable Network Application Package (SNAP) Mobile API and the SNAP Mobile Sample Application as part of the toolkit's External API feature. SNAP Mobile is a combination of client software and server infrastructure that supports the creation of networked, community-enabled multiplayer games.Please see SNAP Mobile Emulation Environment Installation for further information.
Note: Sun Java Wireless Toolkit Version 2.5.2_01 for CLDC is a Security Update that corrects vulnerabilities that might allow an untrusted application to execute arbitrary code. The vulnerability can only be exploited if you obtain a malicious program and run it in an earlier version of the toolkit. The only change in version 2.5.2_01 is the security update, so references to version 2.5.2 on this page and in the documentation correctly identify the most recent feature release. The version 2.5.2 documentation (included in the download) remains valid.
