Rococo Software Releases Bluetooth Simulator.


Business Editors/High Tech Writers

SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 25, 2002

Rococo Software announces the release of Impronto Simulator (1) Software that enables the execution of an application written for a different computer environment. Same as emulator.

(2) Software that models the interactions of hypothetical or real-world objects or business processes.
, a Bluetooth application development tool that runs Java applications A Java program that is run stand alone. The Java Virtual Machine in the client or server is interpreting the instructions. Contrast with Java applet. See servlet.  in a simulated Bluetooth environment.

Developers using Impronto Simulator can test and configure applications without investing in costly hardware before deploying them on Bluetooth devices.

"This tool is perfect for the initial stages of the development cycle, where users can develop their Java Bluetooth apps within the simulator's environment," said Bruce Hopkins, Java Consultant.

Rococo's Chief Architect, Patrick Connolly Patrick Connolly is a former Attorney General of Ireland who was appointed by Charles Haughey. He resigned after a man, Malcolm McArthur, later convicted of murder was found to have been his house guest part of a sequence of events that became known as GUBU. , says, "Impronto Simulator is stable, lightweight, easy-to-configure and allows real work to start immediately without all the fuss of setting up the hardware. Even battle-hardened Bluetooth engineers appreciate the simulator's simplicity when it comes to fast application development."

Impronto Simulator is 100% Java and supports standard Java APIs for Bluetooth The Java APIs for Bluetooth is a Java Micro Edition specification for APIs that allow Java midlets to use Bluetooth on supporting devices. The specification was developed under the Java Community Process as JSR 82.  Wireless Technology (JABWT JABWT Java Api for Bluetooth Wireless Technology ). As a member of the JSR-82 Expert Group, Rococo played a key role in defining standard Java APIs There are three types of Java Programming Language Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) :
  • the official core Java API, contained in the JDK or JRE, of one of the editions of the Java Platform.
 that enable the development of applications in Java conforming to the Bluetooth Specification 1.1.

"The Impronto Simulator is a great tool for newcomers to the Java Bluetooth APIs," added Hopkins. "Because the Rococo team implemented the JSR-82 standard into their product, your code can run on other compliant platforms with minimal modifications."
