Java Development

Hi everyone  ,

I use Eclipse IDE 3.6 Helios and BB plug-in "BlackBerry_JDE_PluginFull_1.1.2.201004161203-16.exe" for develop application but when I create or import demo projects, I found a red error at the "BlackBerry_App_Descriptor.xml" files. So, I look at "Problems tab" at the bottom and it writes ..

" InvalidRegex: Pattern value '([a-zA-Z_]{1,63}[\s-a-zA-Z_0-9.]{0,63}[;]?)*' is not a valid regular expression. The reported error was: ''-' is an invalid character range. Write '\-'.' at column '19'. "

so what should I resolve this problem?   I'm newbie in developing BB app. 

Thx,

Maz

Technically Eclipse 3.6 is not supported. I don't know if this is the cause but it is recommend to use 3.5 instead of 3.6.

Thx for reply, rcmaniac

Did you create a BlackBerry project or a Java project?

Thx rcmaniac,

I've create only BB project. But now I change Eclipse to 3.4 and BB JDE plug-in is "BlackBerry_JDE_PluginFull_1.0.0.67.exe" ( an old version that is supported only for 3.4, I think ). So, I can create BB project without error !!  ( because no  "BlackBerry_App_Descriptor.xml" file when I create project in this version )

Thx,

Maz

That's weird but at least you got it working. The only problem I see you having is that API 6.0 (and maybe 5.0) are only supported with the newer plugin (which requires Eclipse 3.5). Also the newer plugin has the hot-swap feature support in the simulators.
