How to develop Blackberry apps on Mac OS? - blackberry

I am developing iPhone and also Android applications in Apple MacBook. I want to develop Blackberry application. I am using Windows to learn for now.
Is there any software or Eclipse plugin to develop BlackBerry applications on Mac OS instead of Windows?

You may find something interesting/useful by looking at this question: installing BlackBerry Eclipse JDE plugin on Mac OS X

Unfortunately the current version of the Eclipse plug-in only supports OS6 and you must have a physical device connected to the computer. I've been using Parallels to run Windows XP on my Macbook Pro and am pretty pleased.

I am a fan of using parallels. It can run in coherence mode and also skin windows to look like your mac. I use parallels and an eclipse windows plugin.

How to create and deploy IOS App from windows OS

I'm creating a mobile application. The requirement is that the mobile application should be deployed in Android as well as iOS. I'm able to create the application and deploy it into Android using Ionic. But how do I do that for iOS. Is there a way we can use the Ionic in Windows OS and create app that is compatible with iOS.
Similar to Android Developer Options, is there any settings in IOS phones that will enable us to deploy the IOS app and test it.
You can run Mac OS X on your Windows machine using VMWare player. try searching 'Mavericks Retail VMware Image' in google, you will get download links... Hope it helps.
You need XCode to deploy any IOS application. To get XCode, you need a Mac.
The closeset thing you can do is using RemoteBuild, but you stil need a Mac.
After installing it, you can launch a build directly from Visual Studio.
For more information and a detailed guide, you can follow this link: https://github.com/Microsoft/remotebuild
You need a macOS to test and deploy iOS application on App Store, You can't deploy application directly by using windows OS.
OR
If you want to deploy application using windows OS then you have to use any virtualization software like: Virtual Box,
vMware and install macOs.

Debug IOS Application on the AMD notebook

I have notebook with the AMD FX 7500 processor and Windows 10 pro.
I also have installed VS 2015 Community and Xamarin. Is it possible to debug developed iOS application without iPhone? If yes, then how ?
You cannot build, run or test an iOS app without a Mac.
You may install Mac OS on VM on a PC but it's illegal (Apple does not allow this in the Mac OS TOS) and it often does not really work.
As Xamarin doc says:
There are a few requirements that must be adhered to when developing
for iOS in Visual Studio. As briefly mentioned in the overview, a Mac
is required to compile IPA files, and applications cannot be deployed
to a device without Appleā€™s certificates and code-signing tools. Also,
the iOS simulator can be used only on a Mac.
No. You have to have an OSX machine to act as a build host.

Running native windows applications on a smartphone

I'm looking for a smartphone running Windows 10 that can execute native windows executables (build with Delphi, no universal Apps). Is this possible by design? Or aren't there such devices, since Windows 10 on smartphone isn't the same Windows 10 running on desktops?
At the end, I would also take native Windows 8.1 on smartphones - the main point is: to run native windows programs on it.
Is this possible?
Is this possible?
No this is not possible. Phones do not run Win32 executables.

QNX SDK available for MAC

Is there any QNX SDK available for MAC? I had found one for Windows and for Linux.. But Can't find one for MAC... Would be so helpful if anyone help me in this.
Thanks in advance.
I was going to say "no, I've never seen a Mac package for QNX", but a simple Google search reveals that if you are trying to target BlackBerry, they have something.
See this link.
If you're not targeting BlackBerry, then you should probably give their QNX-hosted development VM a try. This should work pretty well on any modern host machine.
For those targeting the QNX Neutrino RTOS:
I just found a very nice gem inside the Momentics IDE for Blackberry installed on a Mac. Simply go to File->Preferences and in the side-bar select QNX->Profiles and check the box QNX Developer.
You now have access to the QNX project wizards and can target the Neutrino RTOS. I'm developing everything on my Mac with Momentics and a QNX Neutrino target running on a VMWare virtual machine (supplied by QNX). I can connect to the VM target with qconn and going through the first steps tutorial was a breeze.
My current setup:
Yosemite 10.10.5
Momentics IDE for Blackberry IDE 2.1.2
VMware Fusion 8
QNX-supplied VMware image of Neutrino RTOS 6.5.0 SP1 runtime

IDE for Blackberry development on Mac ?

Is there any plug-ins available for Eclipse to make BlackBerry applications on Mac. I have installed plugin in Eclipse for my PC.
How can I do that for my Mac?
Thanks.
This conversation on the BB Forum may be of use to you. At least one of the participants claims to do all their BlackBerry development on a Mac.
