How do I remove previously built applications from the BlackBerry JDE simulator?
Article Information:
When executing a project in the BlackBerry JDE a .cod file is created and a duplicate copy is placed in the ‘Simulator’ folder of the JDE root directory. The .cod file represents the application and is responsible for the application/icon that is downloaded on the simulator. Deleting this .cod from the simulator directory will remove the application/icon from the simulated handheld. All other files (e.g. .debug) that correspond (i.e. have the same name) to the .cod file can be removed as well.
A second approach can be followed which will remove all previously simulated applications in one operation. A batch file called ‘clean.bat’ resides in the ‘Bin’ folder of the JDE root directory. Executing this batch file will delete all the files that were added after the initial installation of the JDE. This includes both the files automatically generated by the JDE and any files created by the user and stored in this directory.
