Chapter 16: Deploying BlackBerry Java Applications PDF Print E-mail
After an application has been tested, debugged and certified for distribution, the next thing a developer must worry about is how to deploy the application to its users. The BlackBerry platform supports several ways to deploy applications including:
  • Wired deployment using BlackBerry Desktop Manager
  • Wired deployment using the Web Application Loader
  • Wired deployment using JavaLoader.exe
  • OTA Pull using the BlackBerry Browser
  • OTA Push via the BES
This chapter will cover each deployment method in detail and highlight the strengths and weaknesses of each option. This is a topic that affects both developers and administrators and many will argue that it’s a BlackBerry administrator’s job to manage deployment of applications. Developers still need to know about the available options and how they affect application users.
