To send a push to BIS push server....

IdGenerator idGenerator = new IdGeneratorImpl();

List<String> addresses = new ArrayList<String>();

addresses.add("<fill in PIN>");

Content content = new TextContent("push message to send");

PushMessageControl pushMessageControl = new PushMessageControl(true, idGenerator,

appId, addresses);

pushMessageControl.setDeliverBeforeTimeStamp(new Date((60 * 60 * 8));

PapService papService = PapBeanLocator.get PapService ();

PushResponse response = papService.push(appId, password, appId, pushMessageControl, content);

Push to a BES server...

IdGenerator idGenerator = new IdGeneratorImpl();

List<String> addresses = new ArrayList<String>();

addresses.add("<fill in PIN>");

PushMessageControl pushMessageControl = new PushMessageControl(false, idGenerator,

appId, addresses);

pushMessageControl.setDeliverBeforeTimeStamp(new Date((60 * 60 * 8));

Content content = new TextContent("push message to send");

PapService papService = PapBeanLocator.getPapService();

PushResponse response = papService.push(null, null, port, pushMessageControl, content);

Query the status of a specific device at the BIS push server....

Set<String> address = new HashSet<String>();

address.add("<fill in PIN">);

SubscriptionQuerySerivce queryService = QueryBeanLocator.getSubscriptionQueryService();

subscriptionQueryResponse = queryService.querySubscriptionStatus(appId, password, address);

Query for all active devices at the BIS push server....

SubscriptionQuerySerivce queryService = QueryBeanLocator.getSubscriptionQueryService();

subscriptionQueryResponse = queryService.querySubscriptionStaus(appId, password, SubQueryRequestStatus.ACTIVE);

These are great examples! Just wanted to point out that the use of classes such as QueryBeanLocator or PapBeanLocator will force a dependence on Spring in your application or utility.

If you don't want to use Spring, you could instantiate the service implementation directly, e.g.

    SubscriptionQueryService service = new SubscriptionQueryServiceImpl()

    PushSDKProperties properties = new PushSDKPropertiesImpl();

    HttpClientImpl client = new HttpClientImpl();

    client.setPushSDKProperties( properties );

    service.setHttpClient( client );

    service.setPushSDKProperties(properties);

This is a complete basic sample in java that has no dependency on spring, yo can run it from the commandline, nice for testing.

public class TestPush3 {
    private static String password = "<password provided by RIM>";   

    private static String targetURL = "<push URL>";

    private static final String APP_ID = "<Your Applicaiton ID from RIM>";

   public static void main(String[] args) throws PushSDKException, BadMessageException, UnauthorizedException {

   IdGenerator idGenerator = new IdGeneratorImpl();List<String> addresses = new ArrayList<String>();

   //addresses.add("push_all");

   addresses.add("<PIN of the phone>");

   PushMessageControl pushMessageControl = new PushMessageControl(idGenerator,APP_ID, addresses);

   Content content = new TextContent("This is my push message to send - cnd 6 - PIN");

   PapService papService = new PapServiceImpl();

   PushSDKProperties properties = getProperties();

   HttpClientImpl client = new HttpClientImpl();

   client.setPushSDKProperties( properties );

   papService.setHttpClient( client );

   papService.setPushSDKProperties(properties);

   PushResponse response = papService.push(APP_ID, password, APP_ID, pushMessageControl, content);

   System.out.println(response.getDescription());

}

private static PushSDKProperties getProperties() {

PushSDKProperties p = new PushSDKPropertiesImpl();p.setPpgAddress(targetURL);

p.setUsingPublicPush(true);

p.setHttpIsPersistent(false);

p.setHttpConnectionTimeout(60000);

p.setHttpReadTimeout(120000);

p.setUsingXmlParserDtdValidation(true);

return p;

}

hi, what jar i have to add. because i have a message 

IdGenerator cannot be resolved to a type 

[crispyoz]

acknowledgement-1.0.0.5.jar

commons-pushsdk-1.0.0.5.jar

pap-1.0.0.5.jar

push-1.0.0.5.jar

push-app-mgmt-1.0.0.5.jar

subscription-1.0.0.5.jar

commons-codec-1.5.jar

I'm executing the code you provided, except for I replaced deprecated methods with proper ones. Now my method getProperties() looks like following:

private static PushSDKProperties getProperties() {
PushSDKProperties p = new PushSDKPropertiesImpl();
p.setPublicPpgAddress("https://pushapi.eval.blackberry.com");
 p.setHttpIsPersistent(false);
p.setHttpConnectionTimeout(60000);
p.setHttpReadTimeout(120000);
return p;
}

And I'm getting

net.rim.pushsdk.commons.PushSDKException: Bad HTTP response returned: HttpResponse ( net.rim.pushsdk.commons.http.HttpResponse@116ab4e    statusCode = 400    content =     contentType = null     )

Thanks in advance

At a quick look, it seems that public push has not been set to true. Also check you test account has not expired, that will give you a 400 error also.

[valera]

Thanks a lot for such quick response!

But I set public push to "true". I do it both in constructor 

PushMessageControl pushMessageControl = new PushMessageControl(true,
idGenerator, APP_ID);

and in PushSDK.properties

And my test account is still valid..

Here is my main method

public static void main(String[] args) throws PushSDKException,
			BadMessageException, UnauthorizedException {

		IdGenerator idGenerator = new IdGeneratorImpl();
		List<String> addresses = new ArrayList<String>();
		addresses.add("27f45fc5");
		PushMessageControl pushMessageControl = new PushMessageControl(true,
				idGenerator, APP_ID);
		pushMessageControl.setAddressList(addresses);
		
		Content content = new TextContent(
				"This is my push message to send - cnd 6 - PIN");
		PapService papService = new PapServiceImpl();
		PushSDKProperties properties = getProperties();
		HttpClientImpl client = new HttpClientImpl();
		client.setPushSDKProperties(properties);
		papService.setHttpClient(client);
		papService.setPushSDKProperties(properties);
		PushResponse response = papService.push(APP_ID, PASSWORD, APP_ID,
				pushMessageControl, content);
		System.out.println(response.getDescription());
	}
