Java Development

[jimmy6]

May i know what is the step of the development. from coding to test continuosly. I am using eclipse with emulator .4.7 component pack. First i found a faster way.

Emulator

1) alt+B in eclipse

2) in emulator delete the existing program. go File->Load Java Program.

But after program bigger

It can not be fully deleted. It will promt when i delete the existing program. ask for delete will be execute in restart. even the file is not there anymore but i also can load java program again. It will nothing there after load. so i have to reset and delete the existing file again(which should not there anymore but do not know why). Load the java program again.

Device

The connection really problem. 

If the phone connect to mobile network. i have to take out the battery to reset.

If cant javaload the program or use desktop software manager to deploy, i have to restart pc.

Is it suxxxx? or i am sux because i do not know. Is there a guide out there?

if you start the simulator from eclipse (+plugin) or the jde the newest version of your program is automatically loaded.

for a real device you can use javaloader to load a program onto the device. use 'javaloader -u -wpassword codname.cod'
if the program is currently running on the device the bb will reboot. you can avoid this by terminating the program and avoiding background processes while developing.

i don't know about your other questions (?), mainly because i don't understand what you are asking.

Is it suxxx? Nope
Is there a guide out there? Yes:

""if you start the simulator from eclipse (+plugin) or the jde the newest version of your program is automatically loaded.""

Is it all the time i make change in the code, It will automatically load to emulator without restart emulator.?

[simon_hain]

no, you have to restart the simulator. it is time consuming - but you get used to it.

Use Ant and BlackBerry Ant Tools to automate routine tasks.

At the beginning. I found a way that i can use the File->load java program. It faster since no need to restart but after i add more image and classes. It cant work anymore. Any idea?
