12 J2ME Wireless Toolkit User’s Guide • October 2004
2.3.2 Install
To properly test a MIDlet suite, you should install it into the toolkit’s emulator or a
real device. When you press the Run button in KToolbar, the MIDlet suite is not
installed into the emulator. Instead, the emulator runs the MIDlet classes directly.
The emulator also has the capability of installing applications into its memory in a
process that resembles how applications are transmitted and installed on real
devices. To install applications in the J2ME Wireless Toolkit emulator, choose
Project > Run via OTA.
The emulator window pops open, but instead of running your MIDlet classes
directly, this time the emulator shows the welcome screen of its Application
Management Software (AMS). The emulator’s AMS is an example of the type of
software that real devices must have to manage MIDlet suites.

Choose Apps to go to the main list of installed applications. Select Install
Application and press the select button on the emulator. The emulator prompts
you for the URL location of the application you want to install. The URL is already
filled in for you.
