When I using both netbeans 6.7.1 and 6.9 to create some j2me based apps it’s stop compiling with the error code:

Preverifying 2 file(s) into E:\Play_On\Java\MyLab\mobileApp\mFaraid3\build\preverified directory.
Error preverifying class mfaraid.faraidMIDlet
java/lang/VerifyError:
E:\Play_On\Java\MyLab\mobileApp\mFaraid3\nbproject\build-impl.xml:470: Preverification failed with error code 1.
BUILD FAILED (total time: 0 seconds)

So I began investigating which is land me on some links, here, here, and here. After a few days of figuring out solution, fortunately my apps built again successfully. It happens when I realize my apps use java native floating point library, and I setting it to run on CLDC 1.0 not CLDC 1.1 which is floating point supported by built-in library.

Here is checklist I try to solve this problem:

  1. Try turning off obfuscation(still got same error).
  2. Lowering obfuscation level (still got similar error).
  3. Go to “Libraries & Resources” and uncheck “Netbeans MIDP Components”. as my apps was trying to use WaitingScreen but I canceled it, the netbeans not automatically uncheck the unused library. (still got similar error).
  4. Checking library used by the apps and matching it to target platform configuration. it was using floating number and java.lang.Math class, and somehow I was unconsciously switching to CLDC 1.0 which’s not support floating number and java.lang.Math class. So I switch back to CLDC 1.1 MIDP 2.0, and it works.

Why netbeans error log not pointing to this matter anyway….?
