Watch out for the BlackBerry Native SDK

This weekend I decided to watch the BlackBerry Native SDK beta 4. The result is that all files from my home folder have been deleted. Details under the cut.







After I launched the BlackBerry Native SDK installer, he suggested putting himself in the Application folder. I prefer to put the patch SDKs in my home folder. I made a mistake here. I selected the home folder and continued the installation. It turned out that the installer does not create a separate folder for itself, but writes everything to the folder you specified. As a result, several new folders and files appeared in the home. Among them, I found the install utility that offered to remove the SDK.

I decided to remove the SDK and install it again, already correctly. I started the install utility and as a result I got an almost empty home directory. The only thing left in it is the install utility from the BlackBerry Native SDK beta 4. Evaluate the “genius” of RIM programmers. Their uninstaller simply removes all files from the directory where it was installed. There are no words.



I recovered everything deleted from Time Machime, but I didn’t install BlackBerry Native SDK anymore.
