Using Custom Java ME form with Frontline SMS

I have a custom Java me form app, with validation rules and I’ld like use FrontlineSMS as a gateway. Is there a way of my custom forms mimicking FrontlineForms in order to facilitate this? If I send an SMS what parameters should it include, in order for Frontlines to understand my custom data fields.

Hi James,

Thanks for getting in touch. I just wanted to let you know that I have passed your question onto our developer team, and we will hopefully be able to get back to your question here as soon as possible.

Many thanks,

Hi James,

The simplest approach might be to write your own decoder on the FrontlineSMS to handle data going to and from your application - you'd need to implement the following interface: https://github.com/frontlinesms/frontlinesms-plugin-forms/blob/mast...

Is that helpful? If you want to discuss in more depth, it might be good to discuss on the developers mailing list at https://groups.google.com/group/frontlinesms-developers
