Internet connection in simulator..

Is it possible to use internet connection in Simulator?


I want to access an XML file from web and read its contents.

How can I test it in the simulator?

hi Arun,

Start the MDS simulator while executing your app..

If you start the MDS simulator then you can access the internet in Blackberry Simulator.

Arun,

You can download it from Blackberry site.

Try to install 4.0.2 verion or 4.3.0 version..

The MDS simulator comes with inbuilt.

Start, Programs, R I M, BB JDE 4.3.0 and click MDS

or You can set preferences in your project,

in JDE you can see in EDIT Menu last option is Preferences.

Just Open it and in General tab you have the option "Launch Mobile Data Service(MDS) with Simulator". You can enable this check..

I am using JDE 4.2.1.

MDS studio available for download is 4.1
