When using the Avetana Bluetooth jar you will notice
that you can only make BT connections within the MPP
emulator. Any other connection type will fail with an
"Illegal BT URL" exception.

The reason is that the avetana BT jar "hijacks" the
standard javax.microedition.io.Connector class when first
on the emulator classpath. Reversing jars does have the reverse
effect (the BT connection cannot be made).

The Connector Bridge allows you to use both bluetooth
and socket connections when using the avetana
bluetooth jar and the MPowerPlayer emulator together. The CB
implmentents Cnnector delegating requests to either
the MPP Connector and or the Avetana Connector implementations based
on the requested URL.

You will only need the CB when using Bluetooth and
network connections in the same MIDlet within the MPP emulator.

Usage: put connbridge.jar first on the classpath when running
the MPP emulator.

For example in my standard Ant build file I define the
following classpath (the last three are jars from MPP-SDK):

<path id="emulator.classpath">
	<pathelement location="${connbridge.jar}"/>
	<pathelement location="${avetana.jar}"/>

	<pathelement location="${cldc.jar}"/>
	<pathelement location="${midp.jar}"/>
	<pathelement location="${player.jar}"/>
</path>
