j2me no of threads

I am developing a j2me map based application. Screen is divided into a grid of images and I have to request these images from a server. This can be threaded. What is the maximum no of threads that I can spawn in a j2me midlet? Is there a way to arrive at this no?

If your are talking about max. number of simultaneously requests to server, most device would allow only one. And, I think, that if some devices would allow to create several connections in a time, on hardware level they would make only one, so you'd better

  • open connection
  • wait for response
  • read data
  • close connection
  • open another connection
  • ...

I know that Google map for j2me uses sockets, which heavily improve download speed.

Also, try looking at nutiteq and j2memap

It purely depends on the device. Some devices have more numbers of threads, some less. Typically most phones would support from 5 to 10 threads, but these numbers may vary. A word of caution is that the more the number of threads, the less the application responsiveness is
