Adventures of a Flex developer

Got my egg timer application approved for the playbook.  Which also means i quality for a free blackberry playbook.  Can't wait for it to arrive

I was trying to submit my app for the blackberry playbook, however the release build feature in Flash builder burrito appears to be broken. I was shown the following error: “Error: The system cannot find the path specified”

Luckly you can compile the application from the command line. This took me a while to figure out so I thought I would post it up to share and hopefully save someone else the time.

C:\Users\Mark\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\Egg Timer Air\src>"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito\sdks\blackberry-tablet-sdk-0.9.3\bin\blackberry-airpackager" -package Main.bar Main-app.xml Main.swf blackberry-tablet.xml blackberry-tablet-icon.png assets


You can test your newly created compiled app with the following command:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito\sdks\blackberry-tablet-sdk-0.9.3\bin\blackberry-deploy" -installApp -launchApp -package C:\Users\Mark\Adobe Flash Builder Burrito Preview\Egg Timer Air\src \Main.bar -device 192.168.1.123 -password "password"

You will need to fill in your own ip of the playbook simulator and development password. Also worth a not those paths are from my x64 windows. You can drop the (x86) bit if you’re on 32bit
