Running Applications on the Emulator

You can run bada Web applications on the Emulator using the Project Explorer or the bada IDE menu.

Note
Error conditions can occur while installing or launching a bada application. For information on the error codes used in debugging and testing, see Error Codes.

To run your application on the Emulator:

Start the run by doing one of the following:
- In the Project Explorer, right-click the project and select Run As > bada Emulator Web Application.
- In the bada IDE menu, go to Run > Run As > bada Emulator Web Application.
The Emulator opens.
Use the application in the Emulator as you would in a target device.
While the application is running, the IDE's Output view shows the log, debug, and exception messages.
To terminate the run, do one of the following:
- Click the Terminate button in the Console or Debug view.
  If the application execution is not suspended before you click the Terminate button, touch an arbitrary control on the screen or press a hard key on the Emulator after clicking Terminate.
- Select Close from the Emulator menu.

In the Emulator settings, you can change the display language settings, keyboard language settings, proxy address, and location settings. In addition, you can use the Event Injector to generate application events (such as incoming calls or network status) for debugging and testing purposes.

Note
If you update the application source code, you can download the executable binary to the Emulator without updating the resource files. Similarly, if the resource files have been changed or deleted, you can remove the files or download the modified files to your Emulator without updating the binaries. To run the application in the Emulator with the modified binary or resource files: Right-click the project in the Project Explorer and select Run As > Run Configurations. Depending on which files were updated, select: The Remove icons, resources, and data files on the Emulator. check box to remove the existing resource files. The Overwrite icons, resources and data files on the Emulator. check box to update only the resource files. Click Run.
