NetBeans samples set up

The purpose of these samples is to demonstrate how to develop ArcWeb J2ME Mobile Toolkit applications for ArcWeb Services using NetBeans. A set of seven sample code downloads is available for use with the mobile toolkit.

The ZIP file contains the project files you need to create all the client samples. Each download also includes a set up file with instructions for deploying the samples in a Web application.

These instructions assume you have NetBeans IDE, NetBeans 4.1 Mobility Pack, and J2SE SDK running on your machine and an active subscription to ArcWeb Services. It also assumes you have a program to unzip the sample code.

For more information on getting started with ArcWeb Services, see Getting started with ArcWeb Services.
