I then have a calling class to call the method in the canvas above:
*;
yMIDlet.ja va:5: cannot resolve symbol yMIDlet.ja va:9: cannot resolve symbol
import javax.microedition.midlet.
public class MyMIDlet extends MIDlet {
private Display display;
private MyCanvas canvas;
public MyMIDlet(){
display = Display.getDisplay( this );
canvas = new MyCanvas( this );
}
protected void startApp(){
display.setCurrent( canvas );
}
protected void pauseApp(){
}
protected void destroyApp( boolean unconditional ){
}
public void exit(){
destroyApp( true );
notifyDestroyed();
}
}
But still receive error as below:
C:\WTK22\apps\Canvas\src\M
symbol : class Display
location: class MyMIDlet
private Display display;
^
C:\WTK22\apps\Canvas\src\M
symbol : variable Display
location: class MyMIDlet
display = Display.getDisplay( this );
