Research In Motion has released multiple tools and application programming interfaces that are aimed at making it easier for developers to create Web applications for BlackBerry smartphones.

The company released a BlackBerry plug-in for Eclipse, and this enables content creators to make programs in the familiar Eclipse 3.4 environment. Software makers can test and debug BlackBerry programs that use HTML, CSS, Ajax, Silverlight, Ruby on Rails, and other rich Internet applications.

For those developers who are comfortable in the Visual Studio environment, the BlackBerry maker also released a similar plug-in for Microsoft's Visual Studio version 1.2. Both tools have BlackBerry simulators for testing, and offer developers a way to profile data traffic, load times, and use of Web-based content. Developers will also be able to take advantage of RIM's real-time push technology by using the APIs.
