Downloading the BlackBerry JDE and MDS Simulator

To generate and distribute BlackBerry device applications, download the MDS simulator and the BlackBerry JDE and its prerequisites from the BlackBerry Web site.

Prerequisites
You must have a BlackBerry developer account to download the BlackBerry JDE. You may be required to register if you do not already have an account. Before you download the JDE, ensure the 32-bit JDK has already been installed, even for 64-bit operating systems; otherwise, MDS will not start.
Task
  1. Go to the BlackBerry Web site at http://us.blackberry.com/developers/javaappdev/javadevenv.jsp to download and install the BlackBerry JDE.
  2. Go to http://us.blackberry.com/developers/browserdev/devtoolsdownloads.jsp to download and install the MDS simulator.
