Java ME SDK 3.0 and IntelliJ IDEA

Having problem to select device in IntelliJ 8.1

Finally I found some time to download and install Java ME SDK 3.0 to find that there is problem in using it with IntelliJ IDEA 8.1. The problem is that when I try to run compiled application there is no way to select single emulator as all of them are listed in single line instead of drop down menu.



Looks like Sun Microsystem played a prank joke. NetBeans does show emulators nicely in drop down, as for Eclipse I cannot confirm situation. What is even worst they removed previously so easy to use ktoolbar and provided a guidelines how to run emulator from command line which I give up trying to use after 30min.

I already reported this problem to JetBrains support so hopefully new IntelliJ 9 will have no problems with it.

They haven't fixed it in 9.0. This is a small but annoying bug in IDEA J2ME plugin. It calls "emulator -Xquery" to get a list of emulators. Older versions of WTK returns in this format: device.list: Phone1, Phone2, Phone3 The separator is ", " consisting of a comma and a space. J2ME SDK 3.0 use a single comma as the separator, without a space, but IDEA J2ME plugin hardcoded the separator to ", ", which causes this bug.

Bug was submitted as you can see here (http://youtrack.jetbrains.net/issue/IDEA-51609), but it did not receive any further attention. Later on I received email (out of record) saying that development for JME plugin will be open to public soon. Never stating exact or expected date.

Is there a way around this?

No, there isn't way around...
