BlackBerry Simulators Reference Guide for Eclipse 3.5 plugin

Before providing a reference guide to the simulators available, here is a quick start guide to get going in Eclipse.

  1. Download and install Eclipse 3.5 (Galileo). I used the EE package.
  2. Download the BlackBerry Java® Plug-in for Eclipse® v1.1
  3. Install the plug-in, pointing it to your Eclipse installation.
  4. In Eclipse->Window->Preferences->Install/Update->Available Software Sites add the following site: http://www.blackberry.com/go/eclipseUpdate/3.5/java
  5. In Eclipse->Help->Install New Software, using the Software site added above and download the desired Component Packs.
  6. Restart Eclipse after installing plugins
