Debugging on a live device
 

I have been having trouble debugging on a live device. Whenever I go to attach to my phone I get a series of pop errors that talk about all the files that are missing. The first one that pops up says that net_rim_app_manager.debug is missing. I read the knowledge base article about this very question. The only thing I got from that which I hadn't done initially was that it said I needed the javax.comm library. It took me a while to find that library because apparently sun no longer provides a windows version of this library, but eventually I found a version and to the best of my knowledge, I installed it correctly. Nontheless I still get the same net_rim_app_manager.debug missing series of pop up errors that I got before. Any advice?

Surprising as it seems you can usually ignore these errors. It seems the IDE is trying to find debugging information for some system software that you aren't going to want to debug anyway. As long as it doesn't complain about the program/module you're working on you should be fine. Just click on the "ignore" or "don't tell me again" buttons.

Hi,

i followed the steps that you provided on how to debug on a live device.
but i cannot find the icon of the application in my device, so i cannot start the application.
is there something im missing?
my blackberry device is not registered in any BES at this moment because i just recently got it.

please help!

thanks,
jaclyn

and you did load the application on your device?
you can do so by using jad/cod download or the javaloader -load command.

thanks for the quick reply. :)

i didn't load the application, maybe that's why i could not see the icon.

but i have another problem.

i already loaded the application on the device using the blackberry desktop manager. but i cannot start the application because im using a secure api. by the way, im just trying to start the bluetoothdemo that came with the blackberry JDE. any suggestions as to how i could start my application on my device without having to purchase the licenses for the secure api? :)

any help would be appreciated! thanks again! :)

I'm having a problem here.

My application is not stopping on breakpoints. Why could this be?

Thanks for the help, didn't know i could be able to test on devices, will help more testing on the actual device than in simulators
