Abstract: Embodiments of the invention may provide methods and/or systems for converting a source application to a platform-independent application. Source programming language code of the source application may be translated to target programming language code of the platform-independent application. The source programming language code may comprise Connected Limited Device Configuration (CLDC) code, and the platform-independent programming language may be independent of one or more device platforms. Further, one or more source resources associated with the source application may be converted to one or more target resources.

Abstract: Embodiments of the methods and apparatus for automatic cross language program code translation are provided. One or more characters of a source programming language code are tokenized to generate a list of tokens. Thereafter, the list of tokens is parsed to generate a grammatical data structure comprising one or more data nodes. The grammatical data structure may be an abstract syntax tree. The one or more data nodes of the grammatical data structure are processed to generate a document object model comprising one or more portable data nodes. Subsequently, the one or more portable data nodes in the document object model are analyzed to generate one or more characters of a target programming language code.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention provide a platform-independent application development framework for programming an application. The framework comprises a content interface configured to provide an Application Programming Interface (API) to program the application comprising a programming code to be executed on one or more platforms. The API provided by the framework is independent of the one or more platforms. The framework further comprises an application environment configured to provide an infrastructure that is independent of the one or more platforms and one or more plug-in interfaces configured to provide an interface between the application environment and the one or more platforms.

Abstract: Managing assets during translation of source application to a target application may involve analyzing the source application to generate a database of characteristics of source assets. Thereafter, performance metrics for a target platform may be determined based on the characteristics of the source assets. Subsequently, the source assets may be processed based on the performance metrics to generate target assets.
