Using Blackberry Simulator with .nsf file

Is it possible to view our first beta test Domino application via a Blackberry simulator? We just want to use the http element via a browser but I cannot see how I can point the simulator to the application. Can anyone help?

Hi Lemens,

If you download the BlackBerry JDE then that will include the MDS simulator which’ll allow you to simulate web applications hosted e.g. by Domino.

You can download the BlackBerry JDE from here:

Are you using the MDS simulator? As far as I know, you will need this running in order to connect to your Domino server.

Ben is right - you must have the MDS sim up and running before you’ll get to any web pages with the handheld sim.

I’ve recently enabled our BES users to get to our company telephone directory via their handhelds. Access is secured by having the MDS send the users PIN (restricted to only send it to the server which houses the directory) which is then mapped to a user name for authentication. No password is required, I just send back an LTPAToken for the user.

All in all it was a pretty good experience - the whole process only took a day or two.
