iPhone Java App Creator: Getting Started

Install iPhone/Java from Cydia
Install OpenSSH from Cydia
Restart your iPhone
Install the 'JDK 6 Update 7' from here - http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp
Install 'JCreator LE version' from here - http://www.jcreator.com/download.htm
Download this (See above posts for latest version of iPhone Java App Creator) and extract it somewhere like c:\iphoneappcreator THE PATH MUST HAVE NO SPACES IN IT
Go into your iPhone settings and change auto lock to never ( this will stop the connection cutting out)
Get your iPhones IP Address ( this can be done by going to wifi settings, and clicking the blue button next to your connection )
Run c:\iphoneappcreator\iPhoneJavaHelper.exe
Create a new application - lets call it TestApp and put your iPhones IP in and click 'New iPhone Application'
Go to c:\iphoneappcreator\applications\TestApp\src and run the workspace file TestApp.jcw
Click on the Project Menu and select Project Settings
Click on the tab 'Required Libraries'
Click New
Type 'iPhone' as the name (case sensitive)
Click Add->Archive
Enter the folder c:\iphoneappcreator\libs and select ALL the files in that folder by holding and dragging your mouse over them all, then click open
Click OK, then OK again.
Click the Play button on the toolbar to compile your application
Goto c:\iphoneappcreator\ and run UpdateToPhone.exe
Type in your applications name (one word string case sensitive)
Type in your iPhones IP and click Update iPhone with my local compile
Go to your iPhone now and run the app
Enjoy.

Unknown said...: Okay, I followed every step exactly, except for the TestApp part.
I named mine PodStop instead.
It doesn't appear on my springboard.. :/
I have it in my Applications folder, and it only has a Java file in it.
Why doesn't it work?
Does this work on 3.1.2?; 13 February 2010 at 20:13
