Hi, I'm following your tutorials to get the BlackBerry JDE working in Ubuntu.
I managed to get the simulator to work perfectly.
Now I'm trying to get the eclipse to compile the project. I copied your helloworld example,changed my jde.home and simulator.home to mines, but when I try to compile it says:

Buildfile: /home/pam/workspace/HelloWorld/build.xml
build:
[rapc] Compiling 1 source files to hello_pam.cod
[rapc] javac: invalid flag: 5.0.0/lib/net_rim_api.jar"
[rapc] Usage: javac <options> <source files>
[rapc] use -help for a list of possible options
[rapc] Error!: Error: java compiler failed: javac -source 1.3 -target 1.3 -g -O -d /tmp/rapc_0ab943d8.dir -bootclasspath "/home/pam/lib/BlackBe ...

BUILD FAILED
/home/pam/workspace/HelloWorld/build.xml:16: Java returned: 97

Total time: 523 milliseconds

Do you have any idea why?
Thanks!
Pam

Nevermind, I just got it to work, it was my jde path it had spaces and it messed up something, just changed it to a simple name.

Pam,

Thank you SO MUCH for using the forums!

I get a lot of comments on the BlackBerry development in Linux blog post from people asking for help. However, wordpress comments are the least fun thing to use for providing support.

Josh,
I have almost everything working now. I have some things still missing..
The simulator worked fine the first 2 times, now it's not working any more, here's the last lines the terminal shows:

err:ole:CoCreateInstance apartment not initialised
err:seh:setup_exception_record stack overflow 988 bytes in thread 0009 eip 00a352eb esp 00230f54 stack 0x230000-0x231000-0x330000

err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x110048 "heap.c: main process heap section" wait timed out in thread 003d, blocked by 0009, retrying (60 sec)
err:ntdll:RtlpWaitForCriticalSection section 0x110048 "heap.c: main process heap section" wait timed out in thread 003d, blocked by 0009, retrying (60 sec)

Also, I couldn't integrate de simulator to eclipse. But as long as I can package the app and then try it in the simulator separately I have no problem (or that's what I thought).
Anyway, I updated and translated to spanish your tutorials, if I ever publish them I'll reference the source (if that's ok with you) if you want a copy or if you want a hand I can write them in english for you with the latest versions of everything (once I get it to work of course haha)

That's all for now, I'll login later to see if you could help me with this.
Thanks

I personally have not been able to get the simulator to work 100% of the time. It is very unstable using wine emulation. You might also want to try this post. The author uses the winetricks script to install a few extra components into wine.

For me, by far the most reliable method for using the simulator is with a Windows VM using VirtualBox (outlined here).

As for the Spanish translation, a link back to my blog would be great. Thanks!

If you have tips on getting anything else working, feel free to use this forum. I'm sure others would appreciate your findings.

Josh, do you know how to configure the simulator to have internet on the phone?
Can I add something to the sh script? (some extra variable to configure it)
Also, do you have any knowledge of phonegap for blackberry?
Thanks

Pam,

For internet access you need to use the MDS simulator. See this post for how to make a script to launch it.

This is only necessary for apps on the blackberry that attempt to use BES or BIS for network connections. Direct TCP or Wifi should work without the MDS simulator.

And I'm afraid I have no knowledge of phonegap.
