----------------------------------
Summary: BlackBerry updates to the docs
Key: CB-1823
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-1823
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Docs
Affects Versions: 2.3.0
Reporter: Chad Tetreault
Assignee: Michael Brooks
** Is there a better way to split up BBOS, PlayBook, and BlackBerry 10 (QNX)
into seperate sections so that developers can easily see the information
specific to the platform they're targetting?
** Could add add some screenshots for BlackBerry 10? Similar to how the iOS
guide looks. I can provide them if needed.
----
Section: "Getting Started with BlackBerry"
Replace: WebWorks applications can ONLY be deployed to BlackBerry devices
running OS 5.0 and higher or the BlackBerry PlayBook operating system.
With: WebWorks applications can ONLY be deployed to the following BlackBerry
platforms:
* BlackBerry OS 5.0 and higher
* BlackBerry PlayBook
* BlackBerry 10 (QNX)
----
2. "Install SDK + Cordova"
Replace: - Download and install one or more of the WebWorks SDKs. Keep note of
the install directory.
* Smartphone Development: BlackBerry WebWorks Smartphone SDK
* PlayBook Development: BlackBerry WebWorks Tablet OS SDK
With: Download and install the appropriate WebWorks SDKs for your development.
BlackBerry 10, BlackBerry PlayBook, and BlackBerry Smartphone WebWorks SDKs can
be downloaded from the following location:
https://developer.blackberry.com/html5/download/
*Make note of the installation directory.
----
3. "Setup New Project"
Replace: Open up the project.properties file with your favorite editor and edit
the entries for blackberry.bbwp.dir= and/or playbook.bbwp.dir=. Set the
value(s) to the directory containing the bbwp binary in the WebWorks SDK(s)
installed earlier.
With: Open up the project.properties file with your favorite editor and edit
the entries for the WebWorks SDKs you are using:
* blackberry.bbwp.dir=
* playbook.bbwp.dir=
* qnx.bbwp.dir=
Set the value(s) to the root directories of the corresponding WebWorks SDK(s)
you have installed. Example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Research In
Motion\BlackBerry 10 WebWorks SDK 1.0.2.9
----
4. "Hello World"
Replace: Replace target with either blackberry or playbook.
Issue: Replace target with blackberry, playbook, or qnx to build for the
corresponding platform.
**This appears to be not true. The sample application just displays a landing
page with no additional functionality. (Get Screenshot) Should have a fully
functional app. I've been creating a Kitchen Sink app for BB10 which tests all
the API's, perhaps we could include this, or link to it when it's complete?
----
5A "Deploy to Simulator"
Replace: PlayBook simulators require VMWare Player
With: PlayBook and BlackBerry 10 simulators require VMWare Player
**The qnx.sim.ip and qnx.sim.password values aren't mentioned.
**While in your project directory...
**There is no mention of qnx anywhere.
Replace: The application will be installed in the All Applications section in
the simulator.
With: The application will be installed to the homescreen of the simulator.
----
5B "Deploy to Device (Windows and Mac)"
**There is no 'Setup BlackBerry 10 Signing keys' link.
**https://developer.blackberry.com/html5/documentation/signing_setup_bb10_apps_2008396_11.html
**Open the project.properties...
**There is no reference to any of the qnx variables.
Add: Before deploying to a BlackBerry PlayBook or BlackBerry 10 device, ensure
that Development Mode is enabled in your device Security settings.
**While in your project directory...
**qnx should be added as an option in addition to blackbery and playbook.
Replace: The application will be installed in the All Applications section in
the device.
With: The application will be installed to the homescreen of the device.
