I am proud to introduce a new series of articles from Epic Applications around BlackBerry development. Whether you are trying to get started with BlackBerry development, or are just looking for some tips, you should find this series interesting.
In this first part, we will discuss the very basics of getting started and show you how to get Eclipse, the BlackBerry plug-in, and several simulators going.
Prerequisites
- Windows XP, Vista or 7
- Some programming experience
- The BlackBerry platform uses Java 2 Micro Edition, which is a stripped down version of Java. If you have never programmed before, you likely won’t make it very far.
