putting file on blackberry emulator file system

Question

I need to put a video file on the file system of the Blackberry emulator to test the app I'm writing. I can't figure out how to do this. How can I copy a file from my computer's file system onto the simulator's file system?

Answer 1

In Eclipse or the JDE you can edit the properties for the simulator - one of those properties is to simulate an SD card. If you turn on this option, you can point to a directory on your hard drive and have it show up in the simulator as an SD card, including all of the files in that directory.

Answer 2

You can also comfortable access the storage via FTP, more details here: https://developer.blackberry.com/develop/simulator/simulator_configuring.html
