just to start native development - momentics ide or Visual Studio

Outings to start to write some Aboriginal stunts based apps.  First off is always supported and strengthened Cascades / maintains. What development environment is best for Cascases / native development. I am very familiar with Android Studio, Eclipse and Visual Studio. Momentics still supported and that of using or moving to the Visual Studio plugin? Who has the best features in terms of aid to development for native applications and the productivity of developers?

Thank you

Brian

Cascades is the library preferred for native development, then Yes, it is still maintained and will be for the foreseeable future. If you are familiar with eclipse you'll feel at home with Momentics, which is a custom eclipse build specfically for the development of Cascades/Native BB10. There is also a plugin for Visual Studio, but almost everyone posting here uses Momentics BB10 development.

Personally, I much prefer Visual Studio, eclipse, I always felt suffers greatly from trying to be a Jack-of-all-trades and have been cooked over a long period of too many heads. Don't look under the hood of the eclipse unless you want to tear your hair into small pieces. That said, my first attempt to use the VS plugin didn't look good, and I quickly discovered there is not much here that can help you with it. I would recommend that you go the Momentics road despite its many flaws.

  • Is it possible to rename devices in Momentics IDE

    Hello!

    I develop native applications with Momentics (Cascades) IDE on my MacBook Pro.

    With the new Momentics IDE 2.1, it is very easy to connect multiple devices to the computer and link them with the IDE.

    But the way in which the names of devices appears in the Momentics "on:" drop-down list is not very useful.

    Some of these related devices is the name of the device under 'Settings', but some of them get only "blackberry -" where are the last 4 digits of the PIN device. With this information, it is very difficult to know what entry in the list is what device (I have attached a Q5, a passport and a Z10 at the same time).

    Is it possible to rename the entries manually (as "black Q5', 'white Z10',... or something like that)?

    Thank you!

    Can't you see devices in the Project Explorer? It should be possible to rename the devices, just like any other project.

    Otherwise, try the view of devices (could be hidden however).

  • Native development of the game on BB Playbook

    Hello

    I just downloaded the SDK Tablet of BB and BB Playbook emulator (which works really well by the way). So my idea was to develop a game on BB Playbook. My first question would be:

    • I have seen that the native SDK works with OPENGL ES. Is there any recommended gamedev framework take care of BB Playbook on native game development?
    • When you create a new project on the SDK, there are several models, what should I use?
    • When I choose the OpenGL ES model, it is only available on C, not C++, why?
    • Is - this all start on development of game for Tablet BB guide?

    Thank you!

    Take a look at http://www.cocos2d-x.org/news/48

    While documentation needs some cocos2d entry, itself has a lot of examples and references there, the test suite is good and it is not difficult mentally jump any cocos2d objc examples x - equivalent.

  • QNX Momentics IDE design mode

    Hi people - I just started development in QNX Momentics IDE and I, no matter what I try, doesn't happen in "design" mode  It is disabled, even when training following the exact steps in the video tutorials on web Blackberry based on. Are there cases where the IDE would be denied the opportunity to 'design' when you view a QML file?

    Check the settings of the editor on BlackBerry/QML, uncheck the box "disable", re - open a qml file. It must run the compatibility check.

  • Cannot open binary file in Momentics IDE using C++

    Hello

    This has more to do with C++ with qml but I'm stuck for awhile now and maybe someone here knows the answer.

    What I want to do in my app is I open and read a file once I clicked on a button. This is my code to open the file:

    // after button is clickedfstream file;
    file.open("S:/filepath/file.abc", std::ios::in|std::ios::binary);
    
    if(!file.fail()) qDebug() << "File not found!";
    else if(!file.good()) qDebug() << "Can't open file";
    else if(!file.is_open()) qDebug() << "Error opening file!";
    else{
        qDebug() << "Start opening file ...";
        if(file.is_open()) {
            qDebug() << "File is open!";
        }
    }
    

    First of all I don't get the "file not found" - message so the! file.fail () command works very well and that the file exists.

    But when I then check if the file is opened with! file.good () it gives me my error message that the file is not opened.

    My version of test in Visual studio, has worked well. But not in the momentics IDE it does not work. Can someone give me a clue what to do?

    I'll hazard a guess may be for the user to select a file and then read it in this case, you will need to use a FilePicker...

    http://developer.BlackBerry.com/native/documentation/Cascades/UI/pickers/filepicker.html

    Using what happens then a path valid + file name with which you can use to switch to QFile...

    As a hint of Windows has its own way of doing things, UNIX (and in this case QNX with Qt/Cascades on top) another.

  • How to open cordova 6 blackberry10 project in Momentics IDE

    I am new to develop 10 Blackberry Cordova

    How open created Cordova balckberry10 native Momentics IDE project

    Even now, I see no pages or videos as cordova andriod

    Please help me if you know links.

    BlackBerry Momentics does not support HTML5 or Cordova development.  It can be used to develop applications using C/C++ and QML Qt or stunts.  It is not an IDE for creating HTML content.

    You can use it to create a native extension for use in application of Cordova, but I don't think that's what you're looking for here.

  • Beta 4 - Momentics IDE seized semiautomatic does not work for Qt classes in the newly created projects?

    After you have uninstalled the Beta 3 Momentics IDE und install the new beta 4, I noticed that the autocompletion of the IDE not working anymore for Qt classes when I create a new project from a template (empty or non-empty). It seems that the IDE cannot find the Qt header files:

    But I can compile the project without problems.

    When I import my old projects created with the Beta 3 of the autocompletion also works for Qt classes. When I compared to them, I noticed that the Makefiles have changed completely.

    Of course I could stay with my old project structure, but the Release Notes for the Beta 4 mention something about the changes in the Qt libraries, pre-compiled headers and so on who might require changes in Beta 3 projects. To avoid problems, I thought I could just create new projects in Beta 4 and re-import my source files for my Beta 3 projects. But I want to keep the autocompletition for Qt classes.

    I guess it's just a problem in files created automatically from the project. Is there a way to remedy?

    Thanks for your replies. The trick to rebuild the index was useful, but does not solve the problem in itself.

    But comparing all files in some of my old projects of Cascades generated in Beta 3 and newly generated in Beta 4, I found that in the Beta 4 project files .cproject, missing several tags that setting the include path for Qt for the IDE headers. Note, I'm not referring to the railways include the settings of the compiler here. Just autocompletion and also the analysis of the code in the IDE has not worked.

    In any case, to solve this problem, I found the following solution:

    There are four instances of these tags in the file .cproject of a Cascades (beta 4) project:

    
    

    Where NNNNN is a number randomly. When I change all these 4 cases to:

    
    

    .. .then they review as they did in the Beta 3 and then refresh the project or restart the IDE autocompletion all started working again for new projects of Beta 4. When I then invoke Index-> reconstruction such as recommended in the other thread also the analysis of the C++ code for the work of syntax errors and semantics again (if you have enabled in the IDE).

    I suppose that these lines could also be included in the model files somewhere in the NDK of BB installation folder, but I didn't fix files it.

    I have submitted a new question here:

  • QNX Momentics IDE connection to the server at startup?

    Whenever I run my QNX Momentics IDE it try to connect to a server on port 4455. Anyone know what it is? It doesn't seem to be only a COMPLETE domain name attached to the IP address that is what worries me.

    Native development kit, reaching out to the targets of BlackBerry (PlayBook, Dev Alpha or Simulator), you have set up to see if they are available.

  • Momentics IDE appears to hang in debug mode

    Hey. I just started using Momentics IDE 2.1.1 with the 10.3.1.2267 simulator, and after getting an error message (I'll come back to that) panels of FDI seem stuck in debug with the debugging in the top pane on the left. I pressed Stop, the big red button, and it doesn't seem to work. I want to go back to available to panels with the code in the main central panel. (It says done in the message in the debug pane)

    Grateful help ny

    See you soon

    Justin D.

    P.s. The backs do BB apps after a few years away, good to be back.

    Do you mean that Momentics does not meet the entry or it does not change in the Debug Perspective for the C/C++ editor QML prospects after debugging is complete?

    The prospect does not change automatically once debugging is complete.  To switch to a different perspective use the buttons at the top right of the toolbar or go to the window menu and choose Open Perspective and then C/C++ or QML edition.

  • get the problem when starting native/cascades beta sdk - "QML preview is not available.

    Hello friends,

    When I start native/cascades sdk beta (latest version). It shows an error message "QML previw is not available. I am also attaching the screenshot of it. And my PC has no external graphics card.

    Please tell me why I get this message?

    Thank you best regards &,.

    Dinesh

    Hello dinesh,

    Looks like you don't have a graphics device that supports the preview mode. You must have a fairly modern graphics chipset with sufficient support to use the live preview Momentics openGL. Details are provided in the section 'Manufacturer of Cascades' to https://developer.blackberry.com/cascades/download/releasenotes/. Unfortunately, unless you upgrade your graphics card, you should probably use the Simulator or device to display your user interface.

  • Need help to add the libcurl library in QNX momentics IDE

    Hello

    I am new to the native SDK development for Tablet OS, I'm working on an application that were a part of the user interface, we need to manage the HTTP connections and also need to run in the background.

    I tried, but was unable to download the library libcurl to handle HTTP connections. Can someone give me the link to download the file to library for QNX momentics IDE and a source code example of the use of this library for manipulation of HTTP requests analysis JSON ?

    Also, I need to find a way to run my application in the background. So I'm looking for something to do.

    Thanks in advance .

    libcurl is integrated in the NDK. Simply import the headers in the file "curl" such as . Be sure to refer to the library (curl) in your project.

  • Trouble with application sining in momentics ide

    Hello! I develop 10.2 native sdk application. When I try to create the Release version and sign with my certificate of momentics ide shows me the following errors:

    "Error: Code signing request failed because [access_shared] entry-Point-System-equity is not allowed."

    and

    "Error: Code signing request failed because [access_internet] entry-Point-System-equity is not allowed."

    But it is part of the official documentation of development BB:

    Element value prompted limited since

    access_shared Yes NO. BlackBerry 10.0.0

    Element value prompted limited since

    access_internet NO. NO. BlackBerry 10.0.0

    This means that permissions app 'access_shared' and 'access_internet' are available from 10.0.0 API level and above.

    My bar file permissions - descriptor.xml:

    run_native
        access_shared
        access_internet

    How can I fix this error?

    Thank you.

    Hoc is in votis.

    The current syntax for the authorization of the app should be without the system attribute, that is to say:

    access_shared
        access_internet

    is a good way.
