[sebflash]

The team behind J2ME Device DB project, which currently supports 385 device profiles, has released the first version of Microcode - multi-device development and deployment framework

Microcode features:

- device database based build process
- over 350 devices supported
- integrated precessor Filepp (a very powerful opensource preprocessor)
- resource bundling with resource-collector
- light-weight Ant-based deployment. Easy-to-use and to extend

A tutorial how Microcode works is available online:

I have a very similar setup to that, just by using Lua as a preprocesor. Which is an act that is both very simple and very powerful.

You might want to consider just extending lua with your extra bits and pieces for image/jar handling/etc. I know that's a big switch but think about it.

Microcode looks interesting, but this is just a quick note to say that the link to the tutorial is wrong. Should end "MicrocodeExample", but ends "Microco".

Here's the correct link again to the tutorial

We use Filepp as preprocessor, because it's not only very powerful but also very customizable. And it has the same keywords and syntax like a C-preprocessor.
