Abstract

BlackBerry® has more than 30% (ranked 2nd) of the smartphone market share. In this chapter we shall, first, introduce using Rhodes on Blackberry JDE, and subsequently develop a Rhodes application to get RSS feed for a magazine on Blackberry JDE. Rhodes uses XRuby to generate the Java code from Ruby code. XRuby compiles Ruby classes to Java class files. Though the Rhodes application is a Ruby application, actually the BlackBerry JDE runs Java, which has been compiled from Ruby. The Ruby and Rhodes installation and configuration procedure is the same as in Chap. 1, but is discussed in this chapter for completeness. The Rhodes application is also the same as in Chap. 1, but is discussed in the context of BlackBerry.
