Java Development

Hi I am trying to developed a custom SMS application. I got some code snippet from other posts but I am still facing problem implementing the code. I tried two methods:

Method 1:

public class EnterNumber extends MainScreen {
	LabelField titleEnterNumber = new LabelField("Enter Number",LabelField.ELLIPSIS);
	HorizontalFieldManager hfm2 = new HorizontalFieldManager();
	HorizontalFieldManager hfm3 = new HorizontalFieldManager();
	BasicEditField msgno = new BasicEditField("Enter No:",null,10,TextField.PHONENUMBER);
	
	public EnterNumber(){
		
		setTitle(titleEnterNumber);
				
		
		hfm2.add(msgno);
		
		
		add(new SeparatorField());
		add(hfm2);
		
	}
	protected void makeMenu(Menu menu, int instance){
		menu.add(sendSms);
	}
	
	
	private MenuItem sendSms = new MenuItem("Send",110,10){
			public void run(){
			sendSMS();
		}
	};
	
	public void sendSMS(){
		Dialog.alert("inside sms");
		String address = "sms://"+msgno.getText(); 
		Dialog.alert(address);
		System.out.println(address);
			  
			MessageConnection smsconn = null;   
			  
			try {   
			   smsconn = (MessageConnection) Connector.open(address);   
			  
			   TextMessage txtmessage = (TextMessage) smsconn.newMessage(MessageConnection.TEXT_MESSAGE);   
			   txtmessage.setPayloadText("SMS sending suceessfull");   
			  Dialog.alert("Messge is loaded");
			  System.out.println("Messge is loaded");
			   smsconn.send(txtmessage);   
			  Dialog.alert("Message sent");
			  System.out.println("Message sent");
			} catch (Exception t) {   
			   System.out.println(t.getMessage()); 
			   Dialog.alert(t.getMessage());
			   System.out.println(t.getClass().getName());   
			}   
			  
			if (smsconn != null) {   
			   try {   
			      smsconn.close();   
			   } catch (IOException ioe) {   
			      System.out.println(ioe.getMessage());         }   
			}  

	}
}

Using this I get an error alert after setPayloadText(): saying "operation prohibited bloacking operation on event despatcher thread".

So I used the Method 2 trying to run it in a thread:

public class EnterNumber extends MainScreen implements Runnable{
	LabelField titleEnterNumber = new LabelField("Enter Number",LabelField.ELLIPSIS);
	HorizontalFieldManager hfm2 = new HorizontalFieldManager();
	HorizontalFieldManager hfm3 = new HorizontalFieldManager();
	BasicEditField msgno = new BasicEditField("Enter No:",null,10,TextField.PHONENUMBER);
	Thread t;
	public EnterNumber(){
		t = new  Thread(this);
		setTitle(titleEnterNumber);
				
		
		hfm2.add(msgno);
		
		
		add(new SeparatorField());
		add(hfm2);
		
	}
	protected void makeMenu(Menu menu, int instance){
		menu.add(sendSms);
	}
	
	
	private MenuItem sendSms = new MenuItem("Send",110,10){
			public void run(){
			Dialog.alert("inside run");
			t.start();
		}
	};
	
	public void run(){
		Dialog.alert("inside sms");
		String address = "sms://"+msgno.getText(); 
		Dialog.alert(address);
		System.out.println(address);
			  
			MessageConnection smsconn = null;   
			  
			try {   
			   smsconn = (MessageConnection) Connector.open(address);   
			  
			   TextMessage txtmessage = (TextMessage) smsconn.newMessage(MessageConnection.TEXT_MESSAGE);   
			   txtmessage.setPayloadText("SMS sending suceessfull");   
			  Dialog.alert("Messge is loaded");
			  System.out.println("Messge is loaded");
			   smsconn.send(txtmessage);   
			  Dialog.alert("Message sent");
			  System.out.println("Message sent");
			} catch (Exception t) {   
			   System.out.println(t.getMessage()); 
			   Dialog.alert(t.getMessage());
			   System.out.println(t.getClass().getName());   
			}   
			  
			if (smsconn != null) {   
			   try {   
			      smsconn.close();   
			   } catch (IOException ioe) {   
			      System.out.println(ioe.getMessage());         }   
			}  

	}
}

I only get one alert: "Inside run". After that no sms is sent, no error, no alert, no exception please help.

I am using following things for developing the application:

1. I am testing on BB 9000 handsets.
2. Using blackberry 4.6 plugin for Eclipse.
3. Error I am getting: Already mentioned with code.
4. Code: Already given both the implementation techniques.

tried with setting Message.setAddress()?

[antas512]

yes i have tried that tooo....

i feel its threading problem....

i later tried a new approach trying to launch a new thread in constructor of a new class and tried to send SMS through that but the result was same as METHOD 2.

[BBDeveloper]

Did you give a look into SMSdemo app shipped with JDE?

[antas512]

Yes i tried SMS sample provided with JDEnot working)

even SMS is not getting send by that.......

but I am able to send SMS by using the inbuild messaging service......(the normal metthod to send SMS on any device)

[BBDeveloper]

Which device, OS  and carrier you are trying it on. If it is CDMA use DatagramConnection.

[antas512]

Details:

Device->9000  v406..0266 (platform 4.0.0.223).

CLDC 1.1.

MIDP 2.0.

Carrier-> IDEA(gsm).

[BBDeveloper]

Not a solution, just a suggestion have you tried with other network, cross check?

[antas512]

Thanks BBDeveloper,

I'll try that tooo.....
