Hello
How to integrated RIM app with BlackBerry Address Book.For example:-send an SMS message by selecting a contact, pressing the menu button, and choosing to SMS via XYZ app.

You can add a menuItem into the SMS editor menu and call the function you want to do how to send the SMS :

public void registerMenu(){
    ApplicationMenuItemRepository.getInstance().addMenuItem(
    ApplicationMenuItemRepository.MENUITEM_SMS_EDIT, new SendSMS(30)
    );
}

[...]

private class SendSMS extends ApplicationMenuItem{
        
        public SendSMS(int order){
            super(order);
        }
        
        public String toString(){
            return "Send SMS Like Me";    
        }

        public Object run(Object context) {
            // what you want to do
        }
}

Hello
I think MenuItem is used to create an Menu in my own app but i want name of my app(eg. Send SMS via my App) in native address Book of BB handset.Is it possible?
Plz reply soon..

[s.selva]

i think that you can add a MenuItem in the differents menus of the phone :

// In AddressBook list
ApplicationMenuItemRepository.getInstance().addMenuItem(
            ApplicationMenuItemRepository.MENUITEM_ADDRESSBOOK_LIST, new SendSMS(30)
);
// In AddressBook card
ApplicationMenuItemRepository.getInstance().addMenuItem(
            ApplicationMenuItemRepository.MENUITEM_ADDRESSCARD_VIEW, new SendSMS(30)
);
// In the call logs
ApplicationMenuItemRepository.getInstance().addMenuItem(
            ApplicationMenuItemRepository.MENUITEM_PHONE, new SendSMS(30)
);

You can find all functions of RIM library into the JDE (Help > API reference).
