J2ME - Midlet invocation type awareness

Question

How can a MIDlet ascertain whether it has been manually invoked or automatically?

Thanks!

Answer 1

I can have a MIDLet with tasks A and B subclass the MIDLet with Task A and override "A" with "A + B". The auto invocation will be on the sub-class.

Answer 2

I presume automatic start is achieved with PUSH registry. Try this:

PushRegistry.listConnections(true);

If result is not empty application started automatically.
