I am building an app using JDE 4.5. I need to support 4.5 device

  • 0

I am building an app using JDE 4.5. I need to support 4.5 device OS versions, I can’t use JDE 4.7. Therefore, I can’t use the Screen.getVirtualKeyBoard.setVisibility(VirtualKeyboard.HIDE) in my code, as 4.5 doesn’t support the virtual keyboard api.

I came across this documentation on setting compatility mode. The problem is I don’t know where to set these values. All articles point out setting these values but don’t describe how & where to set it. In my app, all I see is a Blackberry_App_Descriptor.xml which has xml tags. Can someone please help me set these flags in my app?

    You set the values in the JAD (.jad) file that you put on the web server to enable OTA (over-the-air) deployment of the application. These values would be in addition to the usual RIM-Cod-URL and so on properties.

    Creating a JAD file is quite simple. It’s just a text file with name-value pairs of properties. There’s a description here of all the various properties.
