I apologize about not seeing this comment sooner, I just upgraded to a new version of WordPress, and suddenly I saw a bunch of comments that I didn’t before, there was obviously some issue with the previous installation. You’ve probably long since figured it out, but just in case -

If you check out the article on Creating a Blackberry Game, it gives some in depth instructions on how to actually compile the code and load it onto your Blackberry (or run it in a simulator).

Also, thanks for the kind words – glad it helped!

this is AWESOME and inspiring! Just got my curve yesterday. As i’m more from a scripting background, do you mind explaining in a couple of steps how i could get a jar from your above code? Thx!

Thanks

I have exactly the same requirement what your application mentioned here is delivering but when I am trying run it with a simulator its giving error as no source code found. I looked into the trace stack and found it is failing at Thread.Timer main () function (exact name may be different but its the timer).
I tried to put the .cod file in my blackberry also but there also its showing “Starting transmission…” only event I did put some more prints in the function startScreen(), but it is not going upto them. I did conclude that its the only timer where I am unable to carry on. Please guide me as I am all new for this and reffered so many documents but nowhere find anything like this till now as it seems all ok.

Thanks

//Connect to the DB
$link = mysql_connect(‘MYSQL.MYDOMAIN.COM’, ‘MYUSERNAME’, ‘MYPASSWORD’);
if (!$link) {

}
echo ‘Connected successfully’;
mysql_select_db(MYDBNAME);

//Get the variables from the URL path
$lat = $_GET['lat'];
$long = $_GET['long'];
$alt = $_GET['alt'];
$name = $_GET['name'];

//This is for debugging purposes
//echo $lat . “\n”;
//echo $long . “\n”;
//echo $alt . “\n”;
//echo $name . “\n”;

// Insert them into the DB with an SQL statement

//Your URL will look something like this
//http://www.MYDOMAIN.com/connecttodb.php?lat=20.1234&long=30.4321&alt=50&name=John

//Also for debugging to see your SQL statement
//echo $sql;

if (!mysql_query($sql,$link))
{

}
echo “1 record added”;

mysql_close($link)
