Abstract
Mobile phone has been a widespread application throughout all stage and standard of life. Java is ideally suited to become the standard application development language for mobile phone because it provides us with lots of benefits. Hereto some of the most important ones are Cross Platform Compatibility, Object Oriented Programming, Huge Java Developer Community, Security, and the its Dynamic nature. In this project, Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) has been used primarily to develop a context-aware application that feeds the user information about the current weather with SQL server running in the background to generate XML. This application will give the user a real-time update on the current weather in certain location which can be accessed from the mobile phone. It is a very useful and significant application especially for those taking weather factors as a major concern in realizing their activity or reaching particular destination.
