Hi, is there a way to programatically delete an application from the device? For e.g. when a trial period expires. I can do a System.exit(0). But I want the application removed from the device in some way. Is this possible?

Thanks.

David

Thanks Simon I'll have a look.

Thanks, that was of great help. Just a question, 

int handle = CodeModuleManager.getModuleHandle("test_module");

Does the getModuleHandle() take the Application Name as a parameter? 

In Short can I do something like,

int handle = CodeModuleManager.getModuleHandle("MyApplication");

?

thanks,
David

It will take the name of your module which is usually the name of your .jad file. I don't think there is a way you could give it the name of your application and have it return a handle.

You should provide either the RIM-COD-Module-Name or MIDlet-Name from your jad file.  They should be the same, but if different, try them both to see which one works.

Invoke deleteModuleEx(int, Boolean) and provide the following parameters:
int - the handle of the module to delete
Boolean - a Boolean value to specify whether to delete the module and any data it contains, or to delete the module only if it does not have data associated with it 

 int handle = CodeModuleManager.getModuleHandle("test_module");
 if( handle != 0 ) 
 {
     Boolean success = CodeModuleManager.deleteModule( handle, true );
 }
