Blackberry with Lwuit using Netbeans IDE

Step 1:

Fetch the LWUIT sources from SVN and create the BlackBerryPort project.

Or Download Link Project

Step 2: Blackberrry Port Project creation:

RIM port needs to replace some classes from LWUIT for Blackberry device supporting. 1. Remove: com.sun.lwuit.animations.Transition3D.java file from the LWUIT MIDP source code and clean & build. This is important, because, Blackberry doesn't support M3G classes. Clean & Build the BlackberryPort (BlackberryPort is within the LWUIT source code, both LWUIT andBlackberryPort are netbeans projects).

Step 3:

If not interested to create blackberry port and edit lwuit source Project please follow the step to create Blackberry with Lwuit project,some changes we need, but correctly follow steps

1.Create J2ME Application project

2. Insert the below code in \build.xml

 <target name="create-cod" if="blackberry.trigger">

        <exec dir="${dist.dir}" executable="java" failonerror="true">

            <arg value="-cp"/>

            <arg value="${platform.home}/bin/rapc.jar"/>

            <arg value="net.rim.tools.compiler.Compiler"/>

            <arg value="import=${platform.bootclasspath}"/>

            <arg value="codename=${name}"/>

            <arg value="-cldc"/>

            <arg value="jad=${basedir}/${dist.dir}/${dist.jad}"/>

            <arg value="${basedir}/${dist.dir}/${dist.jar}"/>

        </exec>

        <property file="${dist.dir}/${dist.jad}"/>

        <echo file="${basedir}/${dist.dir}/${name}.alx">

&lt;loader version="1.0"&gt;

    &lt;application id="${name}"&gt;

        &lt;name&gt;

            ${MIDlet-Name}

        &lt;/name&gt;

        &lt;description&gt;

            ${MIDlet-Description}

        &lt;/description&gt;

        &lt;version&gt;

            ${MIDlet-Version}

        &lt;/version&gt;

        &lt;vendor&gt;

            ${MIDlet-Vendor}

        &lt;/vendor&gt;

        &lt;copyright&gt;

            ${MIDlet-Copyright}

        &lt;/copyright&gt;

        &lt;fileset Java="1.0"&gt;

            &lt;directory/&gt;

            &lt;files&gt;${name}.cod&lt;/files&gt;

        &lt;/fileset&gt;

    &lt;/application&gt;

&lt;/loader&gt;

        </echo>

    </target>

    <target name="install-on-nokia-device" depends="init">

        <!-- If you are using a different directory for the Nokia PC suite just update the DIR -->

        <echo>Installing ${basedir}\dist\${config.active}\${name}</echo>

        <exec dir="${dist.dir}" executable="c:\Program Files (x86)\Nokia\Nokia PC Suite 7\ApplicationInstaller.exe"

            failonerror="true">

            <arg value="${basedir}\dist\${config.active}\${name}.jar"/>

        </exec>

    </target>

    <target name="install-on-rim-device" if="blackberry.trigger" depends="init">

        <!-- Uncomment and replace ??? with your password to sign the app  before deployment to device -->

        <!-- exec dir="${dist.dir}" executable="java" failonerror="true">

            <arg value="-jar"/>

            <arg value="${platform.home}/bin/SignatureTool.jar"/>

            <arg value="-a"/>

            <arg value="-p"/>

            <arg value="???"/>

            <arg value="-c"/>

            <arg value="-r"/>

            <arg value="."/>

        </exec -->

        <exec dir="${dist.dir}" executable="${platform.home}/bin/JavaLoader.exe" failonerror="true">

            <arg value="-u"/>

            <arg value="load"/>

            <arg value="${basedir}\dist\${config.active}\${name}.cod"/>

        </exec>

    </target>

3: In /nbproject/project.properties, change

After :

4: In/nbproject/project.properties, insert bellow code

5: keystore Process In/nbproject/project.properties, findfile.reference.builtin.ks while not in a code insert below code

file.reference.builtin.ks=${netbeans.user}/config/j2me/builtin.ks

6: In/nbproject/project.properties, change

After Code:

7.Then we right click the projectèResolve Solve Reference Problem

We need add Blackberry and LWUIT supported Jars below in link:

Blackberryport.jar , BlackberryPort_Touch.jar and LWUIT.jar

Step 3:

Sample BlackApp Project

Note:

While we can’t build Blackberry project or Simulator Problem Please install the Blackberry Ant Tools

Download BB AnT Tools, make sure you are using Ant 1.7 or higher.

This will provide support for tasks like:

• 
  rapc
• 
  sigtool
• 
  alx
• 
  jadtool

5.Unzip and copy the file "bb-ant-tools.jar" to the ${Netbeans-home}/java/ant/lib directory.
