Change simulator used in Eclipse

To change the simulator the cod file is loaded into when you debug in eclipse (you’ll need the VS plugin installed first as you get more handsets with this):

  • Right click on the project name and select Debug As… -> Debug Configuration

  • Select the Simulator tab on the right.

  • Click New, and enter a name.

  • Click the advanced tab and change the Working Directory to: C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry VS8 Plugin\handheld\simulator

  • Now go back to the General tab and you should be able to select which one you want from the Device drop down. e.g. 8700-black.

  • If the Device drop down has nothing in it enter the following into the Command Line of the Advanced tab: C:\Program Files\Research In Motion\BlackBerry VS8 Plugin\handheld\simulator\fledge.exe /app=Jvm.dll /session=8700-black /app-param=DisableRegistration /app-param=JvmAlxConfigFile:8700-black.xml /data-port=0x4d44 /data-port=0x4d4e /pin=0x2100000A /handheld=8700-black
