Translation of programming code

An apparatus for converting a source application to a platform-independent application, the apparatus comprising:

• a code transformer configured to translate source programming language code of the source application to target programming language code of the platform-independent application, wherein the source programming language code comprises Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) code, and wherein the platform-independent programming language is independent of one or more device platforms;
• and
• a resource converter configured to convert one or more source resources associated with the source application to one or more target resources.

A system for converting a source application to a platform-independent application, the system comprising:

• means for translating source programming language code of the source application to target programming language code of the platform-independent application, wherein the source programming language code comprises Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) code, and wherein the platform-independent programming language is independent of one or more device platforms;
• and
• means for converting one or more source resources associated with the source application to one or more target resources.

A computer-readable medium having computer-executable instructions that, if executed by a computing device, cause the computing device to implement a method for converting a source application to a platform-independent application, said method comprising:

• translating source programming language code of the source application to target programming language code of the platform-independent application, wherein the source programming language code comprises Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) code, and wherein the platform-independent programming language is independent of one or more device platforms;
• and
• converting one or more source resources associated with the source application to one or more target resources.
