how to trust a midlet

Thread view: 
tkempf@nortel.com - 19 Jul 2005 10:21 GMT
Hi,

I developed a MIDlet that makes use of the IP network. Every time it
access the network I have to confirm that the MIDlet is allowed to use
the network.

How can I trust the MIDlet that it is always allowed to access the
network without a confirmation? I reduced already the security settings
to confirme the network access "per run". But I want to reduce it
further to allow it always after start up.

Thanks,
Thomas

Digitally sign the MIDlet using the CA your handset trusts.
