Motorola Demonstrates New MOTODEV Studio Tools Designed to Accelerate Mobile Application Development
Tuesday May 6, 2:00 pm ET
New 'plug-ins' will enable developers to create applications across a wider variety of Motorola supported platforms, all in a common development environment

SAN FRANCISCO, May 6 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- JAVAONE -- Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT - News) today announced an expanded line of tools for its MOTODEV Studio development platform. Offering an updated toolset for coding Java ME(TM) applications and unveiling plans for tools that support application development on Symbian(TM)/UIQ(TM), WebUI and mobile Linux® platforms, Motorola is enabling developers to innovate across its mobile device portfolio.
Based on an open framework enabled by Eclipse, MOTODEV Studio is an integrated development environment that provides the necessary tools for the application development life cycle -- from requirements definition to testing and deployment -- across all Motorola platforms. MOTODEV Studio and its associated toolsets are designed to enable developers all over the world to create platform-specific applications for Motorola devices -- even before they are available on the market.

"Since its launch in August 2007, MOTODEV Studio for Java ME has enjoyed strong success for developers looking for a full set of tools for compiling, debugging, and testing mobile Java applications for Motorola's most popular devices," said Christy Wyatt, vice president, software platforms & ecosystem, Motorola. "By adding new toolsets to our robust MOTODEV Studio development platform, Motorola is providing developers with everything they need to create innovative applications and extend them across Motorola's mobile device portfolio."


The development environments that will be added to MOTODEV Studio include:

-- MOTODEV Studio for Java ME: an updated version, now available for
download, adds support for Motorola's Symbian/UIQ-based handsets
MOTO(TM) Z8 and MOTO Z10, as well as the MOTO Z6w which is built on
Motorola's MOTOMAGX(TM) mobile Linux platform. The latest version also
adds support for the JSR248 mobile service architecture subset, which
helps reduce fragmentation of Java APIs.
-- MOTODEV Studio for UIQ: expected to be available in beta release later
this quarter, the UIQ development environment enables the creation of
native C/C++ applications for Symbian/UIQ-based Motorola products --
including handsets on the market today such as the MOTO Z8 and MOTO
Z10.
-- MOTODEV Studio for WebUI: expected to be available as a technology
preview later this quarter, MOTODEV Studio for WebUI is designed to
support the creation and testing of lightweight WebUI widgets and
full-featured, context-aware WebUI applications that can access local
device services. Developers will be able to create applications using
standard Web programming languages such as JavaScript, HTML, CSS and
AJAX. The development environment will also support future versions of
Motorola's MOTOMAGX mobile Linux platform, which incorporates the open
source WebKit technology.
-- MOTODEV Studio for Linux: demonstrated as a technology preview that
will be available later this quarter, MOTODEV Studio for Linux will
support native C/C++ application development on future versions of
Motorola's MOTOMAGX mobile Linux platform. With millions of Linux-based
devices shipped worldwide, Motorola has one of the broadest Linux
device offerings of any mobile handset manufacturer. MOTODEV Studio
for Linux underlines Motorola's continued commitment to mobile Linux
and open source.


"We are pleased that Motorola continues to support and leverage the extensible frameworks of Eclipse to expand its MOTODEV Studio development platform," said Mike Milinkovich, Executive Director of the Eclipse Foundation. "Both Motorola and the Eclipse Foundation believe that open platforms provide the best possible working environment for developers and complete toolsets such as those in MOTODEV Studio ease the mobile application development process."
