Java Sample Code

Declaring variables

 static Variant vMOBITEK;
 static boolean bMOBITEK;
 static int iMOBITEK;
 static String sMOBITEK;

//construct objects for each class in "MobitekSTK6.dll"

static ActiveXComponent Modem = new ActiveXComponent ("MobitekSTK6.Modem");
static ActiveXComponent STKAPI = new ActiveXComponent ("MobitekSTK6.SIMToolKit");
static ActiveXComponent SMS = new ActiveXComponent ("MobitekSTK6.SMS");

To send SMS in java

public static void sendMessage()

 //########### turn delivery status report on #######################

 //the return value of "DeliveryReportOn" is a boolean
 bMOBITEK = vMOBITEK.getBoolean();
 //AQ : therefore assign bMOBITEK as return value of "DeliveryReportOn"

 }
 else
