Connected device configuration

Connected Device Configuration ( CDC ) is a development system for Java ME applications in embedded systems from pagers to set-top boxes . There are also CLDC and MIDP , which enable further specialization. CDC was defined in the Java Community Process as JSR 36 (CDC 1.0) and JSR 218 (CDC 1.1).

The CDC Personal Profile replaces PersonalJava, which is a Java 1.1.8 based runtime environment for mobile and embedded systems.
