Abstract
A method of delivering input from a device's remote control to a Java™ application uses asynchronous method invocation in a processing device. The input from the remote control is captured in system-specific (native) code and delivered to a Java™ application asynchronously. This is achieved by calling an event method in the Java™ application in response to the received input signals. The event method is then executed to transfer the input signals from the remote control.
