recording and playback working

I pushed out a build and sources to Sourceforge.  Moved audio handling into it's own thread.  The "test recording" option records and plays back audio now :)

It worked great for a while on my Blackberry, however at one point the audio completely wedged and I had to pull the battery.  The implementation bugs I'm encountering are very discouraging.  I wonder how things would work on Openmoko.  It's C, and GTK.  Very tempting.

But I've invested a lot in this, so I'm going to keep plugging away.  Next is the network communication.

still poking at setRecordStream

I posted a question about the setRecordStream threading issue on the Sun CLDC and MIDP forum:
http://forum.java.sun.com

It's a very active forum, and I've started to post some hopefully helpful comments to others. Hopefully the open source newsgroup/mailing list/forum style of collaboration will help. I have also talked to folks on the Netbeans forums, but they are not very active as of Spring '08.

more experimenting - new release

There is a new release. I've been working on cleaning up the code and trying to take all the stuff that was working asynchronously (in separate threads) and pull it together. I still can't get setRecordStream() to work unless it's in a separate thread from the main program. Makes no sense yet.
I started playing with some UI stuff too. There is a spiffy icon now, and I'm using the logo image when the program isn't at the main List screen.

talkLock is on Sourceforge

Well the code is at a very premature stage, but now that spring is here I have temporarily lost some momentum. So in case anyone wants to help do some beating on these J2ME things, I went ahead and put up the sources and a build on Sourceforge. talkLock has a home now on Sourceforge. It's GPL so download the source and NetBeans with Mobility Pack and start hackin'. If you need an account to publish your builds and test on a web server, write me. marmot is where I usually publish my test builds and suck them down onto my phone. marmot will have a new home this week, so there may be some dns confusion at some point.
There is experimental audio recording and playback, no network code, and a very simple List interface. Also I went crazy with the threads, so everything is very asynchronous and bizarre right now. Enjoy.
