What is required to start developing for Nokia Series 40 with Java?
All that's needed to develop for Nokia with Java ME is:
Java Development Kit (6) - required to develop Java applications
Eclipse Java (Helios) - need this to code, compile, debug and others
Nokia Series 40 SDK (v.6) (login required) - used to emulate the Nokia platform
Mobile Tools for Java - Eclipse extension for mobile development (integrates with the Nokia SDK)
I think the order of the items is the right order.

I'm developing an hybrid app with MobileFirst Platform Foundation (MPF) Studio 7.0 and I have to share the MobileFirst project code to the SCM system. I found this link in the MPF 7.0 Knowledge Center that explains how to do the job for all the parts of the project, including the environments' native folder, except for windows8 tablet and desktop: https://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSHS8R_7.0.0/com.ibm.worklight.dev.doc/devref/r_integrating_with_source_contro.html.
Since I have to support that environment, what are the folders/items exclusions I have to set for correctly sharing the Windows8 native code to the SCM?
Thanks, Simone.
You should consider it the same as Windows Phone. In general you will want to put in your SCM all of the native folder.
I am trying to build an app which shows posts when connected in cascading style.

This may be an incredibly stupid question, but I have not gotten a clear answer through google. Will the eclipse Blackberry plugin work for the new Blackberry as well as older versions? I am actually an android developer so this is quite a change for me. Any hint will be appreciated. Thanx
EDIT You can use the BlackBerry Runtime for Android apps to run Android Jelly Bean 4.2.2 (10.2) platform applications on the BlackBerry 10 OS. If you are developing for a previous version of BlackBerry 10 OS, use Android Gingerbread 2.3.3. To use the runtime, you must first repackage your Android applications to BAR file format, which is the compatible file format required for an application to run on the BlackBerry 10 OS.
Got this from here. Does this mean that I should write two apps? One for the old blackberry devices and one for the new one?
I'm not sure that the above is clear, so thought I would restate the position as I understand it:
Android applications, repackaged to run on BlackBerry devices, can be used on BB10 and PlayBook devices only. These can not be run on BBOS devices, i.e. BB 5/6/7.
The later releases of BB10, specifically 10.2+, supports Android applications developed using Jelly Bean 4.2.2.
PlayBook and previous levels of BB10, support Gingerbread 2.3.3.
So for example, my Z10, which is running BB10.1, would only be able to load repackaged Android applications developed using Gingerbread. My Curve, running OS 7.0, can't run any Android applications.
Can anyone tell me how to setup phonegap for blackberry in eclipse.I went through this site and found most of the update links are useless.
my eclipse version is BlackBerry Java Plug-in for Eclipse v1.5 full.
This article explains how to begin developing PhoneGap applications targeted for BlackBerry devices running BlackBerry OS 5.0 and higher.

I want to start blackberry development. From the BlackBerry site I found that Eclipse is good for development. Since I have previous experience with Eclipse I decided to go with it. Now my problem is that I am not able to download the Eclipse plugin for BlackBerry.
Which version of Eclipse are you using? I recommend Eclipse Galileo 3.5 for BB development.
Once installed, click help > Install new software > and add the following website to work with:
http://www.blackberry.com/go/eclipseUpdate/3.5/java
This should give you a list of the available JRE versions for BB development, select a version depending on the OS of the device you want to develop for, 5.0 is the most common at the moment.
Click next and go through the steps, you will be asked to log in eventually, use your credentials from the BB development website and register at the "Register for access to the BlackBerry Developer Zone" page.
You should be good to go from there! Remember when making a new project to select new > other > blackberry project. Also remember to set the JRE to the Blackberry JRE you downloaded if it's not done automatically.
(as posted elsewhere on this site: BlackberryPreprocessBuilder and BlackberrryResourceBuilder Missing - to link these questions, and add extra FYI info to this thread)
My recommendation is to use this latest download of Eclipse & the plugin.
BlackBerry tools are not very good, so I find it best to use a dedicated Eclipse, only for BB dev. I have found that this download is working well for me.
First of all, you should be a member of 'BlackBerry developer zone'.
Technical requirements:
Eclipse 3.6 Helios
32-bit Windows® XP, Windows Vista® or Windows 7 (Note: 64-bit versions require 32-bit Java and Eclipse)

PC with Intel® Pentium® 4 processor or compatible (2.5 GHz or higher, 2 GB RAM, 1.5 GB HD free)
