Could someone post a sample of implementing the MVC pattern?

UI Event management is the thing I'm interested in most but a code snippet of a demo application that doesn't do anything except demonstrate MVC would be great.

I'm seeing other samples of MVC using AWT on the web but they're no good for BB development, especially in the UI event handling area.

Thanks

I want to ask the same favor. Anyone can please give advice on MVC pattern on blackberry apps? Thank you in advance!

Ditto, please.

My guess is that we'll have to write software the Blackberry / RIM way unless someone writes a framework for this (and shares it).

MVC is just a design pattern, you don't need a framework.

mvc means model - view - controller.
if you want to develop strict you have to create controller classes that handle all stuff like navigationclick, keychar etc.
usually you interleave view and controller as mainscreen implements the event callbacks like navigation click etc.

i externalize all controlling that is not UI related.

Hi Experts ,
I am too looking for such a MVC attempt in Blacknerry. Does anyone there , with such an experience ?

If any articles are available pls post here . !

As other's have said, MVC is a design/architectual pattern that is independent of languages or frameworks. All Object Oriented languages make it simple to separate the Model (Data Storage), View (UI or Display) and Controller (Logic) from one another.

There are a number of books, tutorials and videos available to help you understand the concept. From there, it's just a matter of applying the concept to your project.

A quick google search brought me to this example, specific to the JavaSE:
CodeProject: Simple Example of MVC (Model View Controller) Design Pattern for Abstraction. Free source code and programming help

If you want a more detailed description, wikipedia is always a good place to start:

Yeah, it is kind of interesting, Why do ppl ask about MVC implementation in the first place?

[jrlawhorne]

Because they aren't familiar with the RIM APIs when they start development on a new app. That's about it, I think.

Are there any good books on design patterns specific to mobile development?

[Dougsg38p]

Design patterns are pretty generic - I'm not aware of any patterns that are specific to mobile development.
