Programming for Palm OS/SuperWaba
Appearance
Download the SuperWaba SDK
[edit | edit source]You can download it from here: http://www.superwaba.com.br/en/downloads.asp *404 error
If it requires you to log in, either create an account (free) or use an account from BugMeNot.com.
Unpacking the SDK
[edit | edit source]If you're running Linux, you can rename the .exe to .rar and use unrar to unpack the SDK.
unrar x GPL_SuperWabaSDK.rar
Setting Up Eclipse
[edit | edit source]Create a new Java Project in Eclipse "from existing source", with the directory: $SUPERWABA/src/java/
Add an External Archive to the Build Path: $SUPERWABA/lib/SuperWaba.jar.
After some fiddling, my .classpath ended up like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <classpath> <classpathentry kind="con" path="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.JRE_CONTAINER"/> <classpathentry excluding="waba/|superwaba/bin/" kind="src" path=""/> <classpathentry kind="lib" path="/home/user/SuperWaba/lib/SuperWaba.jar"/> <classpathentry kind="lib" path="/home/user/SuperWaba/lib/vm/applet/Waba_only.jar"/> <classpathentry kind="output" path="superwaba/bin/"/> </classpath>
Running the Samples
[edit | edit source]Run:Run... Java Application
- Main class: waba.applet.Applet
- Arguments: superwaba.samples.ui.gadgets.UIGadgets
Our First Program
[edit | edit source]package superwaba.samples.helloworld; import waba.ui.Label; import waba.ui.MainWindow; public class HelloWorld extends MainWindow { public HelloWorld() { super("HelloWorld!", TAB_ONLY_BORDER); } @Override public void onStart() { add(new Label("My Hello World Program"), CENTER, CENTER); } }
Run this program the same way you would one of the sample applications.
