Features


  • generates low-level, small and fast Java bytecode
  • full Pascal specification support
  • parts of code can be written directly in Java
  • SMS messaging
  • HTTP connectivity
  • user-interface (forms) support
  • multimedia support
  • user-friendly IDE


Hello World


Because it runs on mobiles that don't have a console, the hello world of MIDletPascal is quite different from a normal Pascal hello world.

program HelloWorld;
begin DrawText ('Hello, World!', 0, 0); Repaint; Delay(2000); end.

Issues with Anti-virus


Current versions of certain anti-virus (Norton, McAfee, ...) see any class file generated by MidletPascal as being a virus, "Trojan. Redbrowser.A", and automatically quarantine the suspected file.

This may be a false positive, because the RedBrowser trojan was written using the MidletPascal tool (see ).

It seems antiviruses look for some specific class into the jar package. Using an obfuscator as JShink the midlet won't match with the AV dictionary.
