User Interface (UI) Programming Models for MI - Overview

Introduction

MI supports two UI programming models to date: Java Server Pages 1.1 (JSP) and Abstract Windowing Toolkit (AWT). Both programming models are well-known open-standard programming models for Java applications. The key point here is that MI-based mobile applications require no special 'mobile knowledge' from the developer, but any developer familiar with any of the two concepts will quickly be able to develop applications for SAP Mobile Infrastructure.

MI has specific requirements that mobile applications need to fulfill in order to control the application. These are well-described in the above-mentioned chapters.

In MI 1.0, the microITS programming model was used, but it should not be used any more for new applications.
