BlackBerry Forums Support Community - (JAVA) add menu items to menu : items are lost if blackberry simulator is restarted

Hi All,

I have written a JAVA application that adds menu items to the calendar menu.

In the BlackBerry 8120 simulator, when I run this application, my menus items are correctly added in the calendar menu.

But if I stop the simulator (File\Exit) then restart it, the added calendar items have disappeared. I must run again the application (which is still present in the simulator) to add the menu items again.

Do you know what is wrong? How can I do to make these menu items persistent between 2 BlackBerries simulators restarts? Is it a normal simulator behaviour?

Here is my code:

Code:

import net.rim.blackberry.api.menuitem.ApplicationMenuItemRepository;

import net.rim.device.api.system.Application;



public final class TheApp extends Application { 

        public static void main(String[] args) 

        {

                new TheApp().enterEventDispatcher();

                System.exit(0);

        } 



        public TheApp() 

        { 

                super();

                

                ApplicationMenuItemRepository repository = ApplicationMenuItemRepository.getInstance();

                

                // OpenConfMenuItem and EditConfParamsMenuItem are the classes that inherits ApplicationMenuItem

                OpenConfMenuItem ami1 = new OpenConfMenuItem();

                EditConfParamsMenuItem ami2 = new EditConfParamsMenuItem();

                

                repository.addMenuItem(ApplicationMenuItemRepository.MENUITEM_CALENDAR,        ami1);

                repository.addMenuItem(ApplicationMenuItemRepository.MENUITEM_CALENDAR,        ami2);

        }

}
