Technology to be released in the second half of 2008, allows Java ME applications to offer user interfaces that are entirely defined in Flash.
Sony Ericsson today announced plans to release a new technology that, for the first time, bridges the Adobe Flash Lite and Java ME development platforms. The new technology and tools, referred to as Project Capuchin, will allow developers to utilize the best attributes of both software stacks to create content-rich mobile applications. Sony Ericsson plans to make the technology available during the second half of 2008.
Project Capuchin will provide developers with a tool to create applications with a cleaner user interface (UI) without sacrificing the strong, feature rich and widely deployed Java ME infrastructure, including secure, well-developed content distribution. Project Capuchin's bridging software will empower two distinct developer communities to leverage their respective expertise to create the next generation of highly engaging and immersive mobile content.
Project Capuchin will allow pure Flash Lite content to be encapsulated in Java ME applications with the help of Sony Ericsson Developer World tools, making content created by Adobe Flash technology appear as Java ME applications. More advanced capabilities will allow Flash Lite technology to handle an entire presentation layer and make it possible to create Java ME applications where some or all UI components are defined in Flash.
