BlackBerry Native Development plugin for Visual Studio

This project is a full-featured package for Visual Studio enabling BlackBerry native (C/C++/Cascades) development. It configures your favorite IDE in few clicks and stays always up-to-date as installed via VS Gallery.

It was once a project owned by BlackBerry itself. However since it was so impressively improved, BlackBerry made an official release Gold 3.0 purely basing on my contribution.

New Project

The easiest and most natural way of starting development for new platform. Templates for new BlackBerry C/C++ projects are already there and waiting for the job to start.

Automatic MSBuild update

Auto MSBuild update

Validates build environment and might suggest updating MSBuild on fresh install, or when plugin gets updated in the future. No manual copying files around!

GDB Integration

GDB

Set a breakpoint, hit F5 and observe, how the application is build, uploaded to the device and stops at requested location. It contains full-blown GDB integration with:

  • breaking at location
  • stepping through the code
  • local variables preview
  • and much more!

IntelliSense Support

IntelliSense

The original headers from active BlackBerry NDK are processed and IntelliSense can serve descriptions to classes and methods, while coding. It works great for C/C++ files, QML is not supported yet.

QML colorizing Support

QML Colorizer

Not leaving QML too far. There is a basic QML colorizer build-in, to mark words as known types, numbers, strings or comments, while coding.

Device Browsing Support

Target Navigator

It's possible to navigate over file system remotely, copying files to/from the device and even kill processes, if developing headless applications or cards.

  • register as BlackBerry developer
  • download latest BlackBerry NDK

  • and more!
