ShortCode in j2me application

[nickyeng]

i'm going to send sms to a shortcode in India through my phone midlet.

i'm not sure whether i need to put the "+" sign or not , but here is my code:

 
String addr = "sms://+55111";  
 
// OR
 
String addr2 = "sms://55111";
 
 

which line is correct ?


pls give some advice ASAP..

I'm not 100% sure but I think you need the "+" as the whole string is sent to the SMS app.

it should be a simple test, try one and if it doesnt work try the other...

i can't try it in my local country(malaysia) because the shortcode is from India and my boss is going to India to deploy the system there, and i'm not going with him so there is no chance to test.

In our country when putting a phone number together with the country zip, either you put the + or prepend the country code with 00.
I know it doesn't make it a worldwide rule ...
