This section shows how to install the Unwired Accelerator offline client application on a BlackBerry device via the BlackBerry Desktop Manager or over the air (OTA), and on a simulator. The offline client enables you to use the applications you create through Unwired Accelerator on your BlackBerry device in offline mode.
The UA offline client is available in:
$SYBASE/tomcat/webapps/onepage/ota/bb/direct
The OTA version of the UA client is available in:
$SYBASE/tomcat/webapps/onepage/ota/bb
Develop a process for making the offline client available for BlackBerry users.
