Developers guidelines | Signing applications Introduction Symbian OS version 9.x is specifically intended for mid-range phones to be produced in large numbers of units. The open development platform, featuring many new key technologies, offers large opportunities for ISVs (Independent Software Vendors) to find markets for their products. Introduction of new functionality, such as DRM (Digital Rights Management), Device Management and enhanced networking functionality, has required changing of

Developers guidelines | Signing applications Identifiers Symbian OS v9 Platform Security also requires that applications can be uniquely identified and strictly classified to reflect their PlatSec level of trust. For example, signed and unsigned application are clearly separated by having UID values in separated value ranges. Unique Identifiers, UIDs In Symbian OS, objects are identified by three 32 bit globally unique identifiers, referred to as UID1, UID2 and UID3. • UID1 is a system level

Developers guidelines | Signing applications IF a VID value other than 0 is to be used, it is specified in the .MMP file of the application. VID values must not be specified for unsigned applications. Data caging Data caging has been introduced in Symbian OS v9 to prevent one application to overwrite data belong- ing to another application. The file system has the following structure: • \sys : This is the restricted system area which is only accessible for highly trusted system processes. • \s

Only standard (generic) testing is required for an appli- cation to be Symbian Signed. • Extended capabilities Highly trusted applications may be granted access to this set. For an application utilizing one or more capabilities in this set to be Symbian Signed, it has to go comply to extended testing criteria. The developer of the application must also explicitly declare which APIs of the capability a

Developers guidelines | Signing applications Developer certificates As a consequence of the Symbian OS v9 enhanced platform security, applications that require access to restricted APIs can not be installed on targeted devices before they have been signed, which in turn makes it impossible to test applications on real mobile phones during the development process. To take care of this, special developer certificates can be achieved via the Symbian Signed programme. Devel- oper certificates are

Developers guidelines | Signing applications Planning for development There are a number of considerations to take in the beginning of the development process for a Symbian OS applications. Apart from the normal system analysis and design, also the design implications on sign- ing requirements and testing procedures specific for the Symbian OS v9 platform must be taken into account.

Developers guidelines | Signing applications In Symbian OS v9, UID ranges have been changed compared to earlier OS versions. The following table lists UID ranges to be allocated Symbian APP, EXE or DLL files of different categories. UID classes 0-9 (range 0x00000000 – 0x9FFFFFFF) are referred to as the protected range, and classes A-F (range 0xA0000000 – 0xFFFFFFFF) as the unprotected range. UID ranges not in this table are reserved. UID UID range Purpose class 0 0x00000000 - 0x0FFFFFFF Deve
