Hi,

simply create JNI connection to internal SMS sending method - voila. Not mentioned anywhere here, cause it is not a usual thing we do. If we want to connect to the backend, we know that we do this bnow and we press a button and call sync service. If you want to send SMS from client to ..... then use the system owned SMS method that is (as I mentioned) like everything from inside Java accessible by JNI - even on the PDA.

Or send the data to the backend via Sync and send SMS from there

Hope this helps to find the solution.

Dear Shivaani,

As I told you last week, and now restated by Oliver, we need to use JNI (Java Native Interface). There are 2 ways you can do this

1. Use JNI to access a Platform Builder/Microsoft Managed C++ Library- DLL

2. Use JNI to access easier methods from dll of Smart Device Framework Community Edition from http://www.opennetcf.com/

http://www.opennetcf.com/library/sdf/

Checkout which dll you need to use from the Library above -OpenNETCF.Phone.Sms namespace

Get the community edition to install onto the device from the following link:

Some JNI Resources in the web:

Veera

Edit:

Note:

Using Microsoft's library will be best since Smart Device framework is again using the native microsoft library for the functionality required.
