I was wrong here. WPILib doesn't create the objects automatically. Java ME creates a MIDlet object to start your application - this is different than in desktop Java, which calls the "main()" method of your application class.

The MIDLet created for your robot is is your MainRobotFunctions class (because MainRobotFunctions is a SimpleRobot is a RobotBase is a MIDlet).

Java ME knows to create "MainRobotFunctions" becuase the class name is stored in your manifest.mf file.
