Method and system for accessing a universal message handler on a mobile device
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method for an application management system to allow a Java MIDlet executing on a mobile information device to access a universal message handler, the method comprising:
- receiving from the universal message handler a URI that references the Java MIDlet, the universal message handler being located on the mobile information device;
receiving from the universal message handler a key associated with the URI, wherein the key is embedded in the URI passed to the Java MIDlet;
launching the Java MIDlet on the mobile information device;
passing the URI to the Java MIDlet; and
passing the key to the Java MIDlet, wherein the Java MIDlet gains access to the universal message handler by returning the key to the universal message handler.

Abstract
A mobile information device may execute a Java MIDlet or a non-MIDlet application. The mobile information device may further include an object-oriented application program interface that allows one or more object-oriented object classes to allow input and output data to be communicated between Java MIDlets in different MIDlet Suites and between non-MIDlet applications. The application program interface may be used to allow applications to access a universal message handler executing on the mobile information device.

8. A method for a Java MIDlet executing on a mobile information device to access a universal message handler, the method comprising:
-
receiving from an application management system a URI that references the Java MIDlet; receiving from the application management system a key associated with the URI, wherein the key is embedded in the URI; passing the key to the universal message handler in order to gain access to universal message handler, wherein the universal message handler is located on the mobile information device. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method for a universal message handler to grant access to a Java MIDlet executing on a mobile information device, the method comprising:
-
receiving a message on the mobile information device; generating based on the message a URI that references the Java MIDlet; providing the URI to an application management system; providing a key associated with the URI to the application management system, wherein providing a key associated with the URI comprises embedding the key in the URI and providing the URI to the application management system; receiving the key from the Java MIDlet; and in response to receiving the key, allowing the Java MIDlet access to the universal message handler, the universal message handler being located on the mobile information device. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)
