Java Development

one additional thing. Make sure you dont have ANY 64 bit JDKs/JREs installed. I followed the posts in this chain and was still getting the same issues until I realized I had JRE 6 (64 bit) installed - somehow the program was trying to use that. Ive been beating my head against a wall all day trying to get this to run.

I just wrote a simple (C# .net 2.0) application which circumvents this issue by using hard-coded paths for JDK 1.6.0_17 and JDE 5.0.0. Although you can provide one command-line argument for the JDK version. Which is in this format:

"C:\RIMJDELauncher.exe" jdk1.6.0_17

Which you can use if your JDK version is 1.6.0_17.

You must use the following paths with this program:

Blackberry JDE: C:\Program Files (x86)\Research In Motion\BlackBerry JDE 5.0.0

Java JDK: C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\

You can leave feedback if you want and I can see what I can do . Good luck developing!

I just installed the x86 version of Java and copied the 2 files RIMIDEWin32Util.dll and RIMUSBJni.dll from my JDE_HOME/bin folder to the JDK_HOME/bin and that helped get rid of the message. Oh, and I ofcourse set the PATH variable to point to my JDK_HOME.

I had this problem with stupid bat file but the cygwin script runs fine no change in jdk.

$ cat ide_script
java -DRIM_RUNTIME=..\\lib -DRIM_BIN=..\\bin -jar IDE.jar

$ cat ide.bat
start /D c:\pf\JDE5.0.0\bin c:\Windows\system32\javaw -Xmx512M -DRIM_RUNTIME=..\
lib -DRIM_BIN=..\bin -jar IDE.jar

the search path may be different, never bothered to check,

$ which -a java
/cygdrive/c/Windows/system32/java
/cygdrive/c/pfs/Java/jdk1.6.0_20/bin/java
/cygdrive/c/pfs/Java/jdk1.6.0_20/bin/java

why doesnt the SDK support 64bit java by now?

ok guys, what about who are using windows 7 ? should we install the same jdk-6u6-windows-i586-p.exe ?

am waiting for your replay !

[steff2632]

Yes, use the one that the java website suggests for you. On my win7 machine I have 2 versions x64 & x86. Also have two versions of eclipse

Hi. I was having this issue. Then i took the advice of uninstall the JDK and do a fresh install on the 32 bits version. I also install the Eclipse and know i get this erros when i run the BlackBerry JDE.

And it won't open... Can anyone help me??? I have all day trying to program a simple web link app for one of my websites!!!

Removing any/all 64-bit JDK/JRE installations did the trick for me.
