I have two blackberry library applications and one cldc application.
I want to compile a build.xml integrating all this.
cldc and library 2 refers to library 1.
library 1 has startup tier as 6 which means install during device start.
library 2 can be either 7 or 6.
how to achieve the ota build which does have all these functionalities?
Consider BB Ant Tools
JDP element of RAPC task allows setting startup tier for the compiling cod file.

Having installed Vaadin as an Eclipse Plugin several months ago, how do I find out which version of the Vaadin Framework is currently installed on my machine?
First of all we need to differentiate between the 2 key concepts at hand:
Vaadin framework: a set of libraries (or dependencies, or jars) that are used to develop rich internet applications. They'll be packaged with your application and deployed in a web server
Vaadin Eclipse plugin: a utility designed specifically for Eclipse to help you develop using the Vaadin framework
So, while it is true that the plugin can help you get started with developing a Vaadin application, eg creating a maven project from a prototype, it has almost nothing to do with the Vaadin version (almost because probably a certain version of the plugin will be compatible with a limited range of framework versions).
On the other hand, each project that uses the Vaadin framework, will include these dependencies somehow.
if you chose to manually download the zipped files and place the jars in your project, they should contain the version in their name eg vaadin-server-8.0.6.jar. And even if they've been renamed, you can open the jar (they're just zip files) and inside the META-INF folder you'll see a MANIFEST.MF file which you can open with your favourite text editor and check the version, eg:
if you're using some dependency management mechanism such as maven (or ivy, gradle, etc) then you can look in the specific build file for the referenced version, eg:
<dependency>
<groupId>com.vaadin</groupId>
<artifactId>vaadin-server</artifactId>
<version>8.0.6</version>
</dependency>
In conclusion, a Vaadin version is not exactly installed on your PC (you can have multiple versions downloaded in your local maven repo), but rather a certain version is used in a project, and you should look inside that project to figure out which one exactly is being used.
I am working on a conversion of tfs 2013 build definition, we were initially using tfs 2008.I have a new server with TFS2013 installed and working on Build definition for 2013 xaml (workflow) customization is completed. However i am facing an error when my TFS build in release mode for Any Cpu configuration, but its fine when i use debug mode. I have tried looking many articles and unable to find any solution kindly help me here. This is fine in my local machine but happens only in the server.
Project and details
1) project is .net framework 4.0
2)Default configuration is "Any Cpu"
3)TFS 2013 server is 64 bit, windows server 2008 r2

Configuration : Any CPU|Release
MsBuildPlatform : x86

I have installed windos 8 SDK (Tools only)
and Windows framework 4 x64 as x86 version is failing
The folder C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows has v7.0 folder
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft SDKs\Windows has v8.1A folder
where as my local machine has many versions inside the windows folder in above path

How do I fix the Visual Studio compile error, "mismatch between processor architecture"?
TFS 2010 creating .Net 4.0 XmlSerializers DLL for .Net 3.5 Application
So what should i do to fix this error ?
You need to install the targeting packs (aka SDK, aka Developer pack) for the .NET Framework version you are targeting. You can download them all from http://blogs.msdn.com/b/dotnet/p/dotnet_sdks.aspx
Specifically for your question and targeting .NET Framework 4.0, you want Windows SDK for Windows 7 and .NET Framework 4 Sounds like you grabbed the Windows 8 SDK, which is not what you want for targeting .NET Framework 4.0.
This is not a very good answer (but in case someone comes across it like me), and does not provide insight into why it is occurring. But turning off "Generate the serialization assembly" on the offending project does allow for the build to work in my case.
Start up times will be slower, as serialization will occur at runtime instead now.
You simply need to see what framework you are using and then what debug mode you are using.
In my case i was using framework 4.0 and Build mode target framework "any cpu" but after searching around i found that i need to upgrade my .Net framework from 4.0 to 4.5 and i have to build my solution from "any cpu" to x86 framework because i had Windows 7 SPI with x86 architecture.
Here are some images what i have done to solve this error.
I encountered this error (albeit for a newer .NET framework version, v4.5.1, not v4.0 as in the original question) when trying to build my application on a build server.
The combination of the following two conditions was responsible for the error:
In Visual Studio, on the Project Properties page, on the Application tab, the "Target framework" was set to ".NET Framework 4.5.1";
On the build server, in folder C:\Program Files (x86)\Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework\.NETFramework, a folder named v4.5.1 was not present. (Other folders with version numbers, including v3.5, v4.0, and v4.5, were present.)
This missing folder was the cause of the "The reference assemblies for framework ... were not found" warning, which in turn lead to the "assembly with an incorrect format" error.
The fix was to install Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) for Windows 8.1 on the build server. In the install wizard, in the "Select the features you want to install" step, I unchecked all boxes except for the one for ".NET framework 4.5.1 Software Development Kit".
Running that install caused the missing v4.5.1 folder in the Reference Assemblies\Microsoft\Framework.NETFramework folder to be created, and the build to run successfully.
I am reluctant to answer because you say you have already done this, but every time I have struggled with the error message you quote, it has been the MsBuildPlatform setting. It absolutely has to be set to "X86". Are you sure the setting is being set..?
I am an experienced (but retired) Windows software developer, with more years experience than I care to admit, developing in C++, C#, VB and Java. I therefore decided to have a crack at Android development. My development machine is a Windows 7 box. My IDE of choice would be Microsoft Visual Studio but, for now, I am happy doing hand editing and launching tools from the command line.
I started by downloading the Android SDK and various additional items it suggested. I then started working my way through the tutorial at developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp. Android list targets gave me a couple of choices (Android 4.2.2 and Google APIs:17). I then did Android create project from the command line and that appeared to do its stuff, creating MyFirstApp in my development folder. I then ran Android avd and created an emulator. I also added the android SDK's tools and platform-tools to my path. So far so good.
I fell at the next hurdle. The tutorial told me to change to the root folder of my project and run ant debug. At this point, Windows reports:
'ant' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.
I've searched around for ant.exe without success. Did I miss installing something or did I miss a vital step in the set-up? Any advice for this very green newbie would be greatly appreciated.
There is no ant.exe. Only ant.bat. Ant is a Java build tool.
If it comes with the Android SDK, make sure its bin directory is in your PATH environment variable. Otherwise, download it (from [http://ant.apache.org][1]), and follow the installation instructions on the web site.
Normally, simply unzipping it, putting its bin directory in the PATH envieonment variable, and setting a JAVA_HOME environment variable that points to your preferred JDK directory is sufficient.
I'm getting this error from a while. I have 28 classes in a project and when I run it fails to make the package. It says:
"Error: jar command failed: jar -cfm "E:\Blackberry Workspace\Kenexa\deliverables\Standard\7.1.0\Kenexa.jar" C:\Users\Acer\AppData\Local ... Kenexa
line 0 BlackBerry Packaging Problem"
But when I limit the classes to 24 then it makes the package. Is it related to some size limit while making the package? What should I do to make the package successfully?
Thanks
Answer from Blackberry Support
Are you using the BlackBerry JDE or BlackBerry Java Plug-in for Eclipse?
If you are using the BlackBerry JDE you could be running into an issue where you have reached the maximum supported length for a command line (all files are listed on a command line). If this is the case you could resolve it by reducing the number of classes (as you have done) or by reducing the length of the path to your source files (move them closer to the root of your drive).

So, I just have to change my workspace folder name from "Blackberry Workspace" to "Workspace". The command line was not taking long path.
I want to know What should be default value for build configuration ? [Debug,Private,or Release] at the time of
1) Running application locally on simulator
2) Generating cod file while actually deploying on device/phone.
Configuration doesn't affect the generated code for BlackBerry projects - it only affects which projects are activated (i.e. that are built when you rebuild your workspace). So go with whatever you want - I usually pick one configuration and stick with it throughout debugging and release.
I would build in debug mode during development, so that you can step through the code. When you go to more formal testing, it would probably make sense to build in release mode, so that you're testing a more realistic build of the code. When you deploy to the device, it's usually best to build in release mode, to make sure you code is optimized to run on the device.
Using build configurations
You can specify several build
configurations for your projects. In
each build configuration, you can
choose projects are active.You can use
this functionality to create a set of
active projects to build with a
BlackBerry Application.
