of this parameter. # is a number that starts at 1 and increases by 1 for each sibling file. Give each sibling .cod files the same
name as the original .cod file, followed by -<#>.

this parameter. # is the same number that is appended to the name of the sibling file. Place the
RIM-COD-Size-<#> parameter immediately below the RIM-COD=URL-<#> parameter.

Modifying information for a MIDlet suite
You can use the Updatejad tool, part of the BlackBerry® Java® Development Environment, to process .jad files and perform the
following actions:
•
Correct the .cod file sizes listed in a .jad file. The .cod file sizes listed in the .jad file change after you use the BlackBerry®
Signing Authority Tool to sign .cod files.
•
Create .jad files that reference multiple .cod files.
Use the Updatejad tool only on .jad files created using the BlackBerry® Integrated Development Environment or the RAPC
command-line tool, and signed using the BlackBerry Signing Authority Tool .
The Updatejad tool commands have the following format:
updatejad.exe -q -n input.jad [additional.jad]
