Using the 'barry' tools for Linux, I got Hecl loaded on to an actual BlackBerry device, and it seems to run ok, although the 'form' is definitely ugly... -- David N. Welton http://www.welton.it/davidw/ http://www.dedasys.com/ Sent from Padua, Veneto, Italy |

Hi David, > Using the 'barry' tools for Linux, I got Hecl loaded on to an actual > BlackBerry device, and it seems to run ok, although the 'form' is > definitely ugly... Maybe you could try to run mwt-stuff on BB? It's canvas based and should looks the same on every phone. Of course I don't know if mwt is the right lib for your reason.

David (and others),
as I'm trying to set up a development environment
for building Hecl (for Blackberry), do you have
a list of things that should be installed ?
starting from a "clean" MS-Windows machine.
ideally, i'm looking for something like:
- get the Eclipse bundle XXX (*not* YYY)
- get the blackberry plugin
etc.
I'm asking, because:
a) I have really no experience in Windows
b) I seem to remember someone (on this list?)
saying that the "Pulsar" bundle
("Eclipse for Mobile Java Developers")
which sounded most promising on eclipse.org/downloads
is unsuited for Blackberry...
Many thanks in advance,

Hi Alexios
As far as the IDE is concerned, you should stick to Eclipse Ganymede and EclipseME.
Other than that, I have to say I managed to just run rapc on Hecl jar for the most part of it, and it was all OK. Of course I never got debugging without installing the forementioned tools.
Regards
Mario

Let's see...
* Recent JDK from Sun.
* JDE from RIM.
* Hecl from svn.
* Change blackberry.properties to point to the JDE.
Also, while you're at it, you may want to get the Sun WTK stuff in
order to have a look at 'regular' Hecl.
In any case, with Hecl, I'd suggest trying to build the command line
version first:
ant packageCommandline
Just to make sure everything's working (sometimes svn can get a bit
messy for a few days).

I don't use Eclipse so I'm not very knowledgeable about how it works.
BB development definitely differs from 'regular old J2ME' in that you
have to use rapc, but there's a task for that:
ant blackberry

By the way, the setup I have now is pretty pleasant: I have all my tools and source code and everything in Linux, which is where things get built. After building a new .cod file, I just transfer it to VirtualBox via the 'shared folder' route, and then I install/run it. This lets me keep as much as possible outside of Windows, and use Windows just to run the emulator. -- David N.

On a somewhat related note, I use andLinux http://www.andlinux.org/ as my preferred method of dual OS. Ever since I had to send my laptop in for service (for two months), I have been to lazy to re-install Ubuntu. With andLinux I can run all my linux apps just by double clicking the apps an icon on the desktop. So if you are setting up a windows machine primarily for BB development, at least you can still have access to the apps you like. > Date: Mon, 31 Aug 2009 23:13:22 +0200 > From: da...@de... > To: hec...@li... > Subject: Re: [Hecl-devel] env for building Hecl > > By the way, the setup I have now is pretty pleasant: > > I have all my tools and source code and everything in Linux, which is > where things get built. > > After building a new .cod file, I just transfer it to VirtualBox via > the 'shared folder' route, and then I install/run it. > > This lets me keep as much as possible outside of Windows, and use > Windows just to run the emulator. > > -- > David N.

It definitely looks better. The problem is that it doesn't seem to run quite right:-/ It lets me move between the buttons on the main screen, but clicking on them doesn't seem to do much. I wonder if it's a difference in events of some kind? -- David N. Welton http://www.welton.it/davidw/ http://www.dedasys.com/ Sent from Padua, Veneto, Italy |

It's likely the key-code mapping but i have had a look in BlackBerry JDE API Reference 4.5.0/4.7.0 and found out that the FIRE code is 8 for both api's.
It's the same like in the wtk emulator :(. So I've now idea what is going wrong.
It's a bit hard to fix it or just to understand it for me, because i don't have an bb phone and don't have even the emulator running.
However, I'm happy the its run at least :).
Maybe you should put some system.outs in to the code and see what the MwtManager receives?
MwtManager.java
// notify input
protected void keyPressed(int keyCode) {
System.out.println(keyCode);
try {
if (keyCode > 0) {
event.keyPressed(keyCode);
} else {
event.keyPressed(getGameAction(keyCode));
}
} catch (HeclException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
MwtManagerCmd.java
public void keyPressed(int keyCode) throws HeclException {
System.out.println(keyCode);
ip.eval(new Thing("keypressed " + keyCode));
}
and into the script it self.
proc keypressed {keycode} {
global htm
puts "$keycode"
[$htm getmain] setkeystate $keycode "keystate_pressed" "true"
}
Here is the method call sequence:
The MwtManager imtements the EventListener.
Means the "keyPressed" method will call first. This method translate the keycode by "getGameAction" when it's <0. In the emulator it's <0. (Maybe it's not negative for bb-emu???)
The event interface is implemented by MwtManagerCmd.java and here the hecl command "keypressed" will be called. This is the place where i usually set the keystate to the window object. Sometimes we can make an low-level event handling here.
So, I hope it's help a little so far.
When you have the bb-emu output post it to the list. And I'll try to fix them.
Thanks in advance!
Martin
