I get the error:
Warning!: No definition found for exported static routine: .main(String[])
Any suggestions how to avoid this error?

i think u may have done some coding error.....so it will be better if you try midlet application first and check out the building and execution process..if everything fine then you have made some problem in your coding only..check it out and let me know the result....

jeyaprakash.c · #10 (**permalink**) 10-31-2007, 11:56 PM

jeyaprakash.c · #11 (**permalink**) 11-01-2007, 12:22 AM

hi amansundar

did u tried debuging i cant move next step my F7(step into ) key is not worked ??

amansundar · #12 (**permalink**) 11-01-2007, 06:04 AM

I tried to debug the project, the RIM Remote Debug Server starts first , and then the simulator. But my application doesn't stop at any breakpoint I set...i think some more arguments need to pass in build file for getting debug..i dont know the exact reason...

hi jeyaprakash
At last debugging through netbeans worked succeesfully..what i made mistake is the formatted build file was only portable in netbeans 5.5 but i was using 5.5 beta 2 ...

hi aman,
we know it is possible to autostart an application in jde by before building the project we need to go to the project properties and check that the Auto-run on start up is checked.is possible in netbeans??

amansundar · #16 (**permalink**) 11-06-2007, 03:09 AM

In the .jad file that gets passed into rapc as an argument, there is a flag you can set to do this:

"RIM-MIDlet-Flags-1:"

The value you give the flag determines its startup behaviour. Right now, for example, I have an application that auto-starts up and is a system module. The value for that is 35. So in my .jad file I have the following line:

"RIM-MIDlet-Flags-1: 35"

The value is different depending on the startup hierarchy position you want your app to be in (1 - 7) and whether you want a system module or not. Experiment a bit and the above should make a bit more sense

yes i configured netbean 5.5 ..debuging works fine ...
