Hi Ben,

You can either deploy the JAR/JAD files, or the COD/JAD files. If you are using the MDS, then you can go either route. If you aren't using the MDS, then you'll probably have to go with the COD/JAD files.

One note about the COD file. If your app has multiple COD files, you'll have to unzip the COD file into the individual files.

The web server also needs to set the following MIME types:

For .jad files, text/vnd.sun.j2me.app-descriptor
For .cod files, application/vnd.rim.cod

If you're using MDS, the MDS can automatically convert JAR files to COD files. If you want to allow BB users to download JAR files, you can set the following MIME type:

For .jar files, application/java-archive
