Contratulations! :wink: Keep on doing such good work! You’ve filled a j2me gap! :wink:

Cheers!

I’m wondering - what is the point in gzipping anything in a j2me app, when you will be distributing the app. as a jar anyway.

My understanding is that both gzip, zip and zlib all use the deflate algorithm, so multiple compressions is going to do nothing but increase decompression time.
(and infact, increase size due to the extra algorithm code needed for decompression!)

The same goes for using png’s in a jar - for the most part, a waste of runtime.

I’m sure uses could be found. For example, for data you receive from the network.
