Symbian OS C++ for Mobile Phones, Volume 3
Application Development for Symbian OS v9
Symbian OS C++ for Mobile Phones, Volume 3 is the latest addition to Richard Harrison's best-selling series. This fully updated sequel contains material from earlier books revised to reflect the introduction of Symbian OS v9 and supplementary chapters covering new technologies.
Written by Richard Harrison in conjunction with Mark Shackman, the book includes new and simplified example applications which exploit the functionality of the latest Symbian smartphones.
The book is a must-read for all involved in Symbian C++ development, with both introductory and advanced content. It both teaches the reader how to program in Symbian C++, and reinforces the techniques behind developing applications.
It also includes sections on the following:
- Examples fully compatible with the latest Carbide.c++ Symbian IDEs, guiding the reader through increasingly complex aspects of Symbian C++.
- Core concepts, resources, APIs and the programming idioms needed to create, test and publish non-trivial GUI (graphical user interface) applications.
- Introductions to some of the most significant Symbian OS system services, extensibility and the use of plug-ins and practical descriptions of the communications, multimedia and database services.
- Advice on the available ranges of graphics APIs and guides to ensure that the reader’s application code is as device-dependent as possible.
