There are three specialized MIDlet types in MIDP 3.0
- AutoStart
- IdleScreen
- ScreenSaver
If a MIDlet is of one or more of these types, then they must be declared at installation time using a
MIDlet-<n>-Type
attribute corresponding to the
MIDlet-<n>
attribute used to declare the MIDlet itself.
The value of the attribute is of the form
<type> ["," <type>]*
where <type> is one of
autostartidlescreenscreensaver
To declare the type of a MIDlet as autostart a MIDlet Suite must be granted the javax.microedition.midlet.AutoStartPermission.
