What is the setMode() method?

Rating:

The setMode() method is a method of the RecordStore class. The general syntax of this method is as follows:

public void setMode(int mode, boolean b)

Here, the mode parameter defines the author mode for a specified record store. It can have one of the following two values:

• AUTHMODE_ANY: It allows a record store to be accessed by MIDlets from other MIDlet suites.
• AUTHMODE_PRIVATE: It disallows the access of a specified record store by MIDlets from other MIDlet suites.

The b parameter specifies the writable mode, i.e., whether or not MIDlets from other MIDlet suites can write data to a specified record store. It takes one of the two boolean values, i.e., true or false. If the value is set to false, then the record store is accessed by MIDlets from other MIDlet suites as read only. If the value is set to true, then the records can be modified by MIDlets from other MIDlet suites.
