I have been trying to load Java Programs via the File -> Load Java Program

but there is no viewable result

Can some one please tell me where I went wrong

Also can some one please tell me the correct way to simulate JDE programs onto the BlackBerry Simulator ?

[simon.hain]

i ran into the same problem (some years ago ;) )
you can either put the new cod-files directly into the sim directory or download them OTA (bit awkward but works)

Can you please say how I can generate the Cod file ?

Right now I am loading a Java file

selects "Build Selected" from the Menu

Press F5

If this is not the correct step , can someone please tell the right way ?

[shraddha294]

You need to use RAPC compiler to create cod files.
RAPC compiles jar or java code and generates cod files.

JDE does this by internally using RAPC.
Livelink - Redirection

Any further help this : BlackBerry - BlackBerry Developer Program | Resources, Sample Code, Developer Labs & Newsletter : should be useful

Be sure that your project is Active in its properties and when you ran the program it should be displayed on the simulator

[MobileDeveloper]

Isn't it possible for anyone to give me the necessary guidelines on how to simulate

Is it so hard ?

[shraddha294]

Its very easy....
Have u seen the links posted above.... hardly any difference between debugging on simulator and debugging on device!

[MobileDeveloper]

Is it all so hard for the so called experts in here to Provide such a simple guidance

Couldn't some one even give me a simple 5 line instruction on how to simulate rather than expertly referring to some dumb links ?

Am I really asking too much folks ?

[simon.hain]

in the jde, create a new workspace. create a new project. add the java files to the project. press F7 to compile or F5 to compile+run(simulate).
you can also run the simulator standalone

Hi Simon

Thanks very much for summarising the steps

I will try it ASAP

Also can you please say whether once I press F5 , the .cod file will be generated automatically ?

[MobileDeveloper]

Can some one please tell me which is the correct RIM package to be downloaded ?

Also this is the only screen I have always been getting whenever I simulate the JDE

I have attached it to this post

There is really no "correct" RIM package. It depends on your Blackberry target. The most common JDE's currently would be 4.2.1 and 4.3. You'll need to download and install the JDE, a recent Sun JDK, and (optionally) additional simulators, based on your target system. All of this is found on BlackBerry - BlackBerry Developer Program | Support, Downloads, Knowledge Base, Community

It is important to note that your compiled code will be forward, but not backward, compatible. In other words, if you are compiling for a 4.2 target system, don't use the 4.3 JDE.

The JDE creates the required COD files "out of the box". You may have to set up some environment variables (like PATH) to insure that the JDE finds your Java compiler. You choose the simulator using EDIT / PREFERENCES / SIMULATOR on the JDE menu.

Hi

Thanks very much for your help

Earleir on I had trouble compiling it as the enviornment variable of the Java path was not set up

I resolved it by editing the path

Right now eventhough it may be compiling , I am not at able to view any message other than when I select Build->All

Also even after compiling by F5 , when I searched for the latest cod files none was listed

Where have I messed up ?

I have downloaded JDE4.3

BlackBerry - BlackBerry Developer Program | BlackBerry Java Development Environment Downloads

and


BlackBerry® Device Simulators v4.3.0.97 (8130 Verizon)

Supported devices: BlackBerry® Pearl™ 8130 smartphone (8130 Verizon Wireless)

[MobileDeveloper]

Can some one please say the next step

I have referred to Blackberry site

BlackBerry - BlackBerry | Wireless Handheld Devices, Software & Services from Research In Motion (RIM)..

But they haven't specified how to run the simulator

Can some one please tell me the next steps necessary to compile the Program , Run it on the Simulator as well as how to generate the cod file ?

[jeromeng]

After creating the workspace and adding the project and files as explained by simon, the next step is to click "Build" and then "Debug--> Go" to run the application on the default simulator; this automatically compiles the code to cod and loads it into the simulator.

You can download/install other simulators and then change the default simulator in JDE via "Edit --> Preferences --> Simulator".

Hi

I have been doing it for some time without any success

Every time I Simulate , I get the folowing error screen in BlackBerry

Do you know what could be the problem ?
