• Add MenuItem to a full screen

  Why the following work for screen...

  Showscreen MenuItem = new MenuItem ("Testscreen Show", 40, 40)
  {
  public void run()
  {
  pushScreen (testscreen);
  }
  };
  mainScreen.addMenuItem (showscreen);

  I want to add a narrow menu that closes the application, not the screen. But it does not work for the full screen.  It compiles, but no menu item appears, other than the default menu.

  Fullscreen is not an addMenuItem.  So I used getMenu and add for full screen.

  testscreen = new FullScreen (value, Screen.DEFAULT_MENU);

  Menu TestScreenMenu = testscreen.getMenu (0);
  CloseMenuItem MenuItem = new MenuItem ("close", 40, 40)
  {
  public void run()
  {
  System.Exit (0);
  }
  };
  TestScreenMenu.add (CloseMenuItem);

  Hi JamesColeman,

  Sorry I missed the line that you wanted to close the application, not the screen.

  Yes, close the application, you need to override the onClose method as mantaker suggested.

  I think that your TestScreen class will be something like below:

  public class TestScreen  extends FullScreen
  {
      public TestScreen()
      {
          super(Screen.DEFAULT_MENU | FullScreen.DEFAULT_CLOSE);
  
          VerticalFieldManager vfm = new VerticalFieldManager();
          vfm.add(new LabelField("Test Label"));
  
          this.add(vfm);
      }
  
      public boolean onClose()
      {
          if (Dialog.ask(Dialog.D_YES_NO, "Exit Application?") == Dialog.YES)
          {
             System.exit(0);
          }
          return true;
      }
  }

• ApplicationMenuItem called with null in JDE 4.6 when you enter the phone number

  When I install a custom phone app, ApplicationMenuItem and

  try to enter a number on the keypad of the native Dialer, and then click the custom menu,

  my custom ApplicationMenuItem is called with a null context object.

  This same code + test case works well under the 4.5 JDE / 8300 emulator

  and device 8320, but fails under JDE 4.6 with the BB 9000 emulator

  and device

  To reproduce the bug:

  * Build/launch of the attached test application

  * Send with previous key

  * Go to the native Dialer

  * Enter "123" on the keyboard of the phone

  * Click on the trackball

  * Choose Bug49 the context menu

  * It will appear a dialog box indicating "context has the null value - is this a bug?

  NOTE that if, rather than enter a number on the keypad of the phone with step 4.

  a call log is selected, then it works and a non-null context object is passed.

  Can I make it work?  If this is a known bug, are

  It no work around?

• Code Signing - different version of the JDE

  I'm back-porting an application 4.2 to 4.0. I copied the files sigtool directory 'bin' JDE 4.2 in the 'bin' JDE 4.0 directory. However, when I try to sign the COD files, the operation fails. The 'detail' says:

  "The signature on the request of code signing did not check.  The probable cause of this problem is entered an incorrect password. »

  The password is correct and checked several times. There is another reason for this failure? Am I missing a step when you move files sigtool 4.2 back to 4.0?

  The original JDE (the application was developed on) is 4.2.1. One where I am signing is 4.0.2.

  This link explains the changes in version 4.3.0.  It is the only version of the Pack BlackBerry JDE/component where the format of these files has changed.

• Signature with JDE plugin for Eclipse

  Hello

  Have received my key to sign java applications, I'm a little confused as to how the application is signed.  I don't know if it is correct but I'm clicking on Blackberry, request Signatures, and the signature tool opens. I then click on save and I get the message "unable to save signatures until this application has been registered with all the required powers of signature.  I don't see where I am able to save my application within the JDE.  I don't see my application listed with the status of "unregistered".  Any idea on this would be appreciated.

  Thank you

  I found the solution.

  sigtool.DB and sigtool.csk must be placed in your eclipse plugin directory.  On my system, it's

  c:\eclipse\plugins\net.rim.Eide.componentpack4.3.0_4.3.0.8\components\bin

• Signature tool does not not on JDE 4.2

  Hello

  I JDE Version 4.2 and 4.5 JDE Version installed. Sign tool only works on JDE 4.5.

  He used to work on JDE 4.2 as well.

  How can I sign the work tool for the two d?

  Thank you

  It would be useful to know what measures you take, and what are the mistakes, if any, that you see.

  The key database format changed with JDE 4.3, so if you have copied your GIS files of 4.5 to 4.2 and then tried to sign with the 4.2 SignatureTool that can fail.  You should just use the SignatureTool provided with 4.5 to do everything what your signature.

  If it is not to describe your environment then please provide additional information.

• JDE Eclipse plug-in

  Hello

  I write this message for tips and out of my concern for the current state of the eclipse for JDE plugin.

  As a newcomer to the development of blackberry, I tried to optimize a process for the development team to

  make their job a little easier, more specifically, the ability to debug our application in eclipse using the Simulator.  I managed to develop a simple application that I can with ease, call the debugger, however, I would like to know about 2 main problems I've noticed

  (1) be constrained in the CBC for source file

  (2) not be able to include libraries third 3rd in a workspace of blackberry.

  Problem # 1 is not a problem, it of a pain, but not as bad as (2).  As you know, most java applications use the libraries open source by preventing the Constitution of third-party libraries, life becomes very difficult, and I suppose that in some cases, people/companies drop this and move to another platform.

  What I really want to know is - what, work to correct these problems and to deliver a new version anytime soon?

  I hope you are because in its current state, you send a bad message to developers, youenjoy that problems with eclise JDE plugin google see what I mean.  I like to develop for the blackberry, but the lack of a debugger is a pretty serious problem.  Given that both Eclipse and Netbeans are main currents IDE, you will need to accept that most of the people will NOT fall to use your own custom made Java IDE.

  There was on my team talks about moving to another platform and is one of the main factors as bug fixing is a nightmare without a debugger and we have standardized on the use of eclipse.

  If the task to solve this is also very good, why not make it open source and you will have an idea of how much of an issue this is and how much people are willing to invest to make it better.

  If you are any chance to go to the Conference for developers in San Francisco next week, then it would be an excellent opportunity for you to ask in the future for various people on BOARD on the plug-in.

• ?? Why "MenuItem (String, int, int)" deprecated in 1.3?

  This was annoys me but didn't really think to post so far, in the 1.3 version of the SDK, MenuItem (String, int, int) is marked as obsolete, but there is no other manufacturer for it, then why is it marked obsolete without another manufacturer? So basically in the "Problems" section, I have 'Problems' on all THE MenuItems as warnings for being obsolete, but I've got NO solution for it because there is no other visible manufacturer?

  In addition, in the "javadoc" for MenuItem, that's what it shows

  [QUOTE]

  net.rim.device.api.ui.MenuItem

  Represents an abstract menu item.

  Each element has an ordinal by specifying the sort order in the menu. A separator is automatically inserted between adjacent elements whose ordinals differ at least 0x00010000. Each item has a priority by specifying that one should be the default value. A lower value indicates a higher priority.

  Creating items menu with commands

  Since BlackBerry 6.0 API, you can use command framework API to create a menu item. The procedure is the following:

  1. Set the features to make using a CommandHandler. The order manager can be limited to your application, or can be registered is available to any application on the BlackBerry smartphone.
  2. On your screen, optionally specify the context of the menu item by calling setCommandContext(). The context may be required to determine what should be the command handler.
  3. Associate the menu item to a command by calling setCommand(). The command defines what to run when the menu item is selected by acting as a proxy to an instance of a class that extends a command handler. The command is executed only if there is no implementation of practicable. If the context is specified, it is passed to the command executes the method. Otherwise, this menu item is passed.

  Code example

   class MyUiScreen extends MainScreen
   {
       public MyUiScreen()
       {
         //...
         // Create MenuItem with command context
         MenuItem myItem = new MenuItem("My Menu Item", 110, 10);
         myItem.setCommandContext(new Object()
         {
             public String toString()
             {
                 return "My MenuItem Object";
             }
         });
         // Set command to be invoked by the MenuItem
         myItem.setCommand(new Command(new DialogCommandHandler()));
  
         addMenuItem(myItem);
       }
  
   // A CommandHandler implementation which will be executed unconditionally
   class DialogCommandHandler extends CommandHandler
   {
       public void execute(ReadOnlyCommandMetadata metadata, Object context)
       {
           Dialog.alert("Executing command for " + context.toString());
       }
   }
  

  Creating menu items by subclassing and by implementing Runnable

  If subclassing the extension class must implement the Runnable interface that supports in turn Expedition summary of actions from the menu during activation.

      ...
      // setup the menu items
      MenuItem item = new MyMenuItem();
      menu.addItem(item);
      ...
      class MyMenuItem extends MenuItem {
          MyMenuItem() {
              super(MyResourceBundle.getBundle(), MyResource.MY_MENU_ITEM, 0, 100);
          }
          public void run() {
              // do something
          }
      }

  StringProvider: "Provides a string that can be changed. The most common use would be for locale changes. "If you hard-code the channels then it is useless, if you use a resource bundle then it is great because you simply provide the family resource and ID to the creation and the rest is handled internally.

• Version number in "Application Properties" does not match what I put it in in 'Version' on JDE

  I created an application and it is at version 0.9.4.  I put this version number in the JDE under project properties.  This version number is also shown on the screen to start the application.  I create and sign the application.  I send the files .jad and .cod of have downloaded them on our web page.  When I go to our page on my blackberry, it shows that the version is the 0.9.1.  When I install this app, "Application Properties" displays 0.9.1 but the application itself 0.9.4.  I see in the file .jad says 0.9.1.

  How can I match them?  Can I just change this part of the file with a text editor .jad to the current version?

  What version of BlackBerry JDE do you use?  There is a problem in some older versions, where it is not updated the version number in the JAD file.  To work around, you can manually update the version of the JAD file or remove the JAD file, forcing the BlackBerry JDE to recreate when it built your application.

• How to write a program that allows an HTTPs connection to the APACHE TOMCAT server in blackberry JDE

  Hello.. I am very new to the blackberry JDE environment. But then, I have a project in which I should write a program that will make an HTTPs connection to the apache tomcat server using blackberry JDE. The simulator which I use is 8330-JDE.

  Here is my code...

  import java.io.IOException;

  Import java.io.InputStream;

  Import javax.microedition.io.Connector;

  Import javax.microedition.io.HttpsConnection;

  Import net.rim.device.api.ui.UiApplication;

  Import net.rim.device.api.ui.container.MainScreen;

  public class Httproto extends UiApplication

  {

  public public static void main (String [] args)

  {

  Httproto instance = new Httproto();

  instance.enterEventDispatcher ();

  }

  public Httproto()

  {

  pushScreen (new HttpsConnectionScreen());

  }

  }

  final class HttpsConnectionScreen extends screen

  {

  public HttpsConnectionScreen()

  {

  HttpsConnection c = null;

  InputStream is = null;

  int rc;

  try {String url =

  "https://192.168.2.3: 8443/cit/j_acegi_security_check? j_username = sanogo & j_password = redhat;

  c = (HttpsConnection) Connector.open (url);

  c.setRequestMethod (HttpsConnection.POST);

  System.out.println ("connection is open with the server");

  Get the response code is open the connection,

  Send the request and read HTTP response headers.

  The headers are stored until asked.

  RC = c.getResponseCode ();

  System.out.println ("response from the server" + rc);

  if (rc! = HttpsConnection.HTTP_OK) {

  throw new IOException ("HTTP response code:" + rc);

  }

  is = c.openInputStream ();

  Get the ContentType

  The string of type = c.getType ();

  The length and process data

  int len = (int) c.getLength ();

  if (len > 0) {

  int actual = 0;

  int BytesRead = 0;

  byte data = new byte[len]; while ((bytesread! = len) & (real! = - 1)) {

  real = is.read (data, bytesread, len - bytesread);

  bytesRead += real;

  }

  } else {}

  int ch;

  while ((ch = is.read (())! = - 1). {

  }

  }

  } catch (ClassCastException e) { throw new IllegalArgumentException ("not a HTTP URL");}

  }

  catch (IOException ioe) {}

  finally {

  Try

  {

  if (is! = null)

  is. Close();

  if (c! = null)

  c.Close ();

  }

  catch (IOException ioe) {}

  }

  }

  }

  When I run this program in the Simulator, I can do nothing. Please correct me if I'm wrong in coding.

  As I am new to this blackberry JDE environment, ideas and suggestions on how to write and run the sample applications in the blackberry are more welcomed.
