Table 18 Performed on a suite
Rules:
• If the application does not have an associated JAD URL, the Tell-A-Friend
option will not appear in the context-sensitive menu.
• If the URL plus the application name size exceed the maximum size allowed
for an SMS message, the following rules shall be applied, in this order, to
truncate the link:
o
Remove application name from link, (i.e.: “GP
http://www.mot.com/games/gp.jad ” shall be truncated to
“http://www.mot.com/games/gp.jad”).
o
Remove path to the JAD file, keeping only server’s URL and application
name. (i.e.: “GP http://www.mot.com/games/gp.jad” shall be truncated
to “GP http:// www.mot.com”).
• If server’s URL cannot be kept, Tell-A-Friend option shall be disabled.
• J2ME applications downloaded through a PC can specify JAD URL using
new JAD attribute Mot-Midlet-URL. If this JAD attribute is present, JAM will
use the JAD URL specified by this attribute to enable the Tell-A-Friend
option.
• J2ME applications downloaded through MMS (when this functionality is
available on the phone) can specify JAD URL using new JAD attribute Mot-
Midlet-URL. If this JAD attribute is present, JAM will use the JAD URL
specified by this attribute to enable Tell-AFriend option.
