This section lists the implementation specifics of the Personal Information Management API at package level.
The javax.microedition.pim package contains PIM
API classes and interfaces.
The PIMList.getFieldLabel(), PIMList.getAttributeLabel(),
and PIMList.getArrayElementLabel() methods should be
used for obtaining localized labels for fields, attributes, and string array
elements.
The implementation supports PIMLists as described
in the following table, ordered:
|
List name |
List type |
Corresponding PIM data |
|---|---|---|
|
Contacts |
|
Phonebook entries in device memory |
|
Appointments |
|
Calendar Appointment entries |
|
Day notes |
|
Calendar Day Note entries |
|
Anniversaries |
|
Calendar Anniversary entries |
|
To-do notes |
|
To-do list entries |
The list names depend on the used localization variant. For more information, see the section Runtime environment.
The Contact, Day notes and To-do
notes item objects in lists are persistent so that they are read
from the database during list initialization. After this, external changes
are applied to the items so that there is no need to reread entire lists.
The items are refreshed from a native database whenever any of the PIMList.items() variations
is called.
