Question: The MIDlet build cycle requires an additional pre-verification step. Why is this?
Answer: A consequence of the tight memory footprint required by the J2ME CLDC specification is that a CLDC VM does not support a full
J2SE class verifier. Instead CLDC delegates part of the verification process to the build cycle. A CLDC VM requires all application classes to
be "pre-verified" by the developer, adding an additional step to the application build process(compile, pre-verify, jar). So to build a CLDC/MIDP
application you need an additional tool (the pre-verifier) supplied in Sun's J2ME Wireless Toolkit.
