I’m having some trouble opening an existing blackberry eclipse project I have to work

  • 0

I’m having some trouble opening an existing blackberry eclipse project I have to work on. The project has been left for me in a folder which includes subfolders such as bin, deliverables, src and res. How do I go about opening this? I’ve tried “import existing projects into workspace” and selecting that folder – which loads the project on the left hand banner of eclipse but with a red explanation mark on the icon. When I right click the project and select “run as blackberry simulator” nothing happens. I have consulted these articles:

Opening an existing Java project
open existing java project in eclipse

but I seem to have been given the entire project structure instead of just the .jar file so I’m not sure if these are the steps to follow. I have tried the followed

  1. File -> Import -> Existing Project into Workspace
  2. Browse for that directory.

which loads the project but gives the red exclamation mark on the project.My other project which is loaded on the left banner does not have the exclamation mark on the project icon and can also be right clicked and run as a blackberry simulator. I am using the blackberry eclipse plugin.

Thanks for any help!

EDIT

Under Problems view: “The project cannot be built until build path errors are resolved” and “unbound classpath container: ‘JRE System Library [BlackBerry JRE 6.0.0] in project ‘MyProject'”

Original work had been done by an ADMIN user who had copied the project to the server. The original file would have come from 

C:\Users\ADMIN\Documents\Workspace\PROJECTNAME\deliverables\Standard\6.0.0

although I copied it from the server location. The place where I copied it is on my local machine at 

C:\Users\MYNAME\Documents\workspace\PROJECTNAME\deliverables\Standard\6.0.0

That path is a jar file I found. There is also one in ..\Standard\7.0.0. A user provided feedback below to right click on resolve but I am confused as how I can right click on resolve and provide the correct path . I am not sure if this is is the correct .jar file to be honest I am not too sure on how blackberry directories work in this case. I am following this article

    No reinstall was necessary and it turns out that I was using the JRE 7.0.0 and needed 6.0.0. I installed the JRE from the BB Java plug-in update site and after an Eclipse restart I was able to open the project. The link to use with Eclipse if anyone else has a similar issue is: http://www.blackberry.com/go/eclipseUpdate/3.6/java
