How to sign playbook bar files
by bombadil_

First, get your csj certificate files from RIM (https://www.blackberry.com/SignedKeys/), install the RIM playbook SDK (NOT the beta SDK), Adobe AIR SDK, and Android SDK (and download the "SDK Platform" from the "Android 2.3.3 (API10)" list in the Android SDK Manager tree) then follow these steps:

#1. Run > cmd - then cd to the bin directory of the RIM SDK (by default: C:\Program Files\Research in Motion\blackberry-tablet-sdk-1.1.1\bin), then:

blackberry-signer -csksetup -cskpass yourPinhere

[Note: If you get an error saying a key already exists, you need to delete it using this command:

blackberry-signer -cskdelete

/Note]

#2. Register your csj files (which should both be in the bin folder):

blackberry-signer -register -csjpin yourPINhere -cskpass yourPinhere client-RDK-##########.csj

blackberry-signer -register -csjpin yourPINhere -cskpass yourPinhere client-PBDT-##########.csj

#3. Create the .p12 key file:

blackberry-keytool -genkeypair -keystore QNX.p12 -storepass yourPinhere -dname "cn=yourcompanyhere" -alias author

#4. Sign the bar file (which should be in the bin folder) twice using these commands (once using RIM's server, RDK, and once locally, author):

blackberry-signer -keystore QNX.p12 -storepass yourPINhere -cskpass yourPINhere NAMEofBARfile.bar RDK

blackberry-signer -keystore QNX.p12 -storepass yourPINhere -cskpass yourPINhere NAMEofBARfile.bar author
