Kept researching the problem, even tried to rebuild the app in the RIM JDE with no success.... I kept finding more people with issues relating to I/O errors that pertained to an environment variable that was not set correctly called "PATH" and the value should point to the java bin dir. Of course i did not even have that variable set in Windows, much less the correct value. I added it with the dir "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_22\bin" which seemed to work. I can compile and run past my arbitrary 72 class file limit now. The interesting thing now is if i remove the path, Eclipse wont even start, it just gives me an error, so its a mystery as to how it worked before.
In any event, granted, microsoft might be proprietary, but man o man is Visual Studio ever less frustrating to work in.
