How do you test your blackberry application on the device?

Question

This may sound very noobish, but I can't seem to get my app to my blackberry.

I was trying to follow the beginning blackberry development book's guide, but maybe I just missed the point somewhere.

For remote download, Is it really as simple as drop the COD and JAD files in the same folder on your server then just navigate to the URL with your device's browser? The book says it should prompt a download screen, but all I get is a page full of cryptic characters.

My app is a simple slideshow. Uses no signed things and is not MDS enabled. Did I forget something?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Answer 1

The easiest way to do it during development is to use javaloader:

javaloader.exe -u load myapp.cod

Where "myapp.cod" is the single COD file generated by the rapc compiler (and optionally signed if required).

If you do want to install it "OTA" (over the air) from your webserver, make sure you are deploying the JAD file and individual COD files (if it's a large app). Also make sure that your webserver MIME types are set properly for the .jad and .cod file extensions .
