BlackBerry Java Development Environment Release notes 7

Distributing files for BlackBerry Mail and PIM APIs

If your application uses the BlackBerry Mail or PIM APIs, you must redistribute updated .cod files for

these APIs with your application. The .cod files that are included with desktop software version 3.6 are no

longer up-to-date.

An updated installation package for the BlackBerry Mail and PIM APIs is available on the BlackBerry

Developer Zone web site. An installer is included that installs the required .cod files to the correct location

on the user’s desktop. Visit

http://www.blackberry.com/developers for more information.

Requesting code signatures

In the IDE, you must build all projects in the workspace before you can request signatures. To request

signatures, in the IDE, on the Build menu, click Request Signatures. Refer to the BlackBerry Java Developer

Guide Volume 2 – Advanced Topics for more information on code signing.

Simulator time

When you invoke System.currentTimeMillis(), in the simulator, the time that is returned is the local

time of the host machine on which the simulator is running, not GMT. The time returned matches local

time, but the time zone in the settings is GMT.

Using .alx files

When the IDE generates an .alx file for a project, it adds a placeholder value in the <directory> tag.

To load an application using the desktop software, you must first edit the .alx file: either remove the value

in the

<directory> tag (so the .alx file and .cod files must exist in the same folder) or place the .cod file in a

subfolder and change the value in the

<directory> tag to this folder name.

Refer to the BlackBerry Java Developer Guide Volume 1 – Fundamentals for more information on generating

.alx files and the .alx file format.

Wireless application deployment

To make applications available on a web server for users to download wirelessly, you must set up the web

server to set MIME types appropriately:

Refer to the chapter “Deploying applications wirelessly” in the BlackBerry Developer Guide Volume 1 –

Fundamentals for more information.
