Joerg Jahnke has released an updated version of JMEBoy. JMEBoy is a Java-based Gameboy and Gameboy Color emulator for mobile devices. If you want to play Gameboy games on your mobile phone you should try this emulator.

Release notes:

The binaries of the final releases for JMEBoy 1.2.1 and JSwingBoy 1.2.1 have been added for download. These releases are built from the code of SVN revision 160.

These releases add Russian as a new UI language. If you would like to see also your native language supported, please have a look at the forum page https://sourceforge.net/forum/message.php?msg_id=5142005.
Additionally the JME version brings an improved way to search for local files and adds the option to freely assign the joypad buttons.

Please take a look at the release notes for more information on the changes. Choose the emulator download according to the desired target platform:
– JMEBoy runs on Java-enabled (MIDP 2.0) mobile devices.
– AndroidBoy runs on Android-based mobile devices.
– JSwingBoy runs on PCs with a JDK/JRE5 or later installed.

JJIL is a Java image processing library. It includes an image processing architecture and over 60 routines for various image processing tasks.

JJIL is particularly targeted towards mobile applications. It includes interfaces so images can be converted to and from native formats for J2ME, Android, and J2SE.

JJIL includes some sample applications for face detection and EAN-13 (including UPC) barcode reading. The barcode reader requires high resolution images (currently beyond a typical cameraphone, but perhaps not Android) but the face detection code works well with any cameraphone. It can isolate any reasonable frontal view of a face in a few seconds.

Changes:

I divided JJIL into a core library, still called JJIL, and two architecture-dependent libraries, JJIL-J2ME and JJIL-J2SE. This affected the source tree structure and the downloads. You will have to link with JJIL and JJIL-J2ME if you are building J2ME-dependent code, and JJIL + JJIL-J2SE if you are building for J2SE.
