BlackBerry JDE and source control Vault integration

I have been developing applications for Blackberry recently using Blackberry JDE in Java. I have always used Vault for source control in Visual Studio and it integrates well with Visual Studio. Here is how to do it in BlackBerry JDE.

BlackBerry JDE supports source control integration as you can see in this screenshot

The tricky bit is to setup the vault command in there. SourceGear Vault has a command line tool “Vault” which could be used. Here is the usage of it,

Here is checkout command usage,

Now enable source control integration and setup appropriate appropriate commands for checkout, revert and add file for source control in preferences dialog of BlackBerry JDE as shown below

Checkout Command:

Revert Command:

Add File Command:

After you setup these, make sure to setup vault command in path variable for your PC so the JDE picks it up. As for Vista, goto Computer –> Properties –> Advanced System Settings –> Environment Variables as show below,

Vault Command Path:

That’s it, you are all set to go. The JDE with Vault will work fine now. The only problem I found is the inability to checkin files and to specify dynamic repository path in add script from within the JDE, will update the post once I find some info on that.
