   Hi,

   I got successful in building the Hello world application with BB ant tool with the help of your blog steps. But I am getting error which building the Hello world dependency example here are details.

   1. I have created common project with build.xml and common.properties file in it.
   2. I have not changed anything in build.xml.
   3. In common.properties i have just changed the jde.home. i.e C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry JDE 5.0.0
   3. Created the libHello project and followed further steps.
   4. Run the clean target for libHello
   5. Run the build target in HelloWorld

   i am getting the following error:
   Buildfile: D:\BB_Eclipse_Wrokspace\Helloworld\build.xml
   deps:
   deps:
   build:

   BUILD FAILED
   D:\BB_Eclipse_Wrokspace\common\build.xml:34: The following error occurred while executing this line:
   D:\BB_Eclipse_Wrokspace\common\build.xml:25: jde home must be a directory

   Thanks,

   That's strange. Are you positive you have entered the JDE directory path correctly?

   Try using the <echo> ant tag to verify that it is set inside the build task, for example:

   <echo>${jde.home}</echo>

   Hi Jiggak,

   Thanks for your reply,

   The problem got solved with your suggestion. Actually the jde.home i was entered is C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry JDE 5.0.0 instead of C:/Program Files/Research In Motion/BlackBerry JDE 5.0.0.
   The problem is with the slash(/).

   I need to ask one more thing:
   During OTA intallation or App World do i need both project and library cod files or Only project cod file will do.

   Thnaks,
   Siddh

   Hi Jiggak,

   One more thing i would like to know using ant tool can i have only one cod file for my application.
   (my application - which is having a dependency on other jar) Where as your Helloworld dependency example is generating the two cod files.

   During OTA intallation or App World do i need both project and library cod files or Only project cod file will do.

   I don't know how App World works. But for regular OTA you need your .cod file (or multiple files) and a .jad file with references to the .cod files. BB-ant-tools comes with an ant task to help generate an OTA ready .jad file. It's called jadtool.

   One more thing i would like to know using ant tool can i have only one cod file for my application.
   (my application - which is having a dependency on other jar) Where as your Helloworld dependency example is generating the two cod files.

   I think you can tell rapc to compile from .java source files AND a .jar file containing already compiled .class files. Try searching the official forums for details on compiling a .cod from .jar file.
