Developers Guideline UIQ C++ and PersonalJava Technical overview and architecture This document is valid for the Sony Ericsson P800, P900 and P910 series mobile phones. The Sony Ericsson P800, P900 and P910 series mobile phones are based on the Symbian™ UIQ user interface. UIQ is a pen-based user interface platform for media rich mobile phones based on the Symbian Operating System (OS). The P800, P900 and P910 series is a versatile application platform enabling application developers to cre-

Developers Guideline UIQ C++ and PersonalJava A developer’s perspective on the P800, P900 and P910 series The P800, P900 and the P910 series are based on Symbian OS 7.0. The P800 User Interface (UI) is based on UIQ 2.0, whereas the P900 and P910 series are based on UIQ 2.1. The table below presents a compar- ison of what is supported by the different phones and what developers need to consider when designing applications: Technical data P910 series P900 series P800 series SDK support UIQ 2.1

Developers Guideline UIQ C++ and PersonalJava Make sure your AppUi is derived from CQikAppUi (Qikon) and not from CEikAppUi (Uikon). Ensure that your application is “theme aware”. Use logical colors to draw application controls and propagate color scheme change messages through your application. Add a large version of your application icon for display in the Applauncher icon view. The media server supports MP3 audio files. If your application uses audio files in any format, other than

Sony Ericsson Multimedia Content is stored in ‘Sony Ericsson’ sub- folders. When the file system is viewed from a PC using PC Suite, the C: drive is called 'Phone Memory'. Only a subset of the folders is accessible. The picture below shows the layout of the folder structure: Multimedia is stored

Developers Guideline UIQ C++ and PersonalJava C++ Applications written in C++ have the most direct access to hardware and functions of the phone and require in-depth knowledge of Symbian C++. Since C++ is a compiled language, the applications run faster and have a faster startup time than those written in pJava, J2ME or Visual Basic. This does not imply that applications written in other languages will be slow. In fact, the other languages may be a better choice if your application does not

Developers Guideline UIQ C++ and PersonalJava PersonalJava This section offers advice about developing PersonalJava applications. This requires Symbian OS envi- ronment specific knowledge not needed for MIDP application development. PersonalJava (referred to as “pJava” in this document) was one of the first Java programming environ- ments targeted for development of applications for resource-constrained devices. These devices include PDAs (Personal Digital Assistants) and Communicators/Smartph

Developers Guideline UIQ C++ and PersonalJava It is recommended to install Sun J2SDK. When using the J2SDK, it is important to compile using a pJava “classes.zip” file. Such a file can be found in the UIQ SDK. Also, the javac compiler directive “- target 1.1” must be used for the J2SDK to assure that JDK 1.1.* compatible bytecode is generated. A good example of this can be found on the Sun web page: http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/ tooldocs/windows/javac.html#crosscomp-example. JavaChe

Developers Guideline UIQ C++ and PersonalJava Behaviour related to flip modes The P800, P900 and P910 series operates in two distinctly different UI modes: Flip Open (FO) and Flip Closed (FC). pJava applications can be launched and can only appear on screen while in the FO mode. On transition from FO to FC, the UI of any pJava application being executed becomes out of focus (hidden) and the user is unable to interact with the application. The application may however continue to execute and p

Developers Guideline UIQ C++ and PersonalJava Streaming AMR API AMR is standard speech GSM encoding/decoding technology. It lets you play and record AMR encoded sound at different bit rates. This function can therefore be used by your application. The Streaming AMR API support is not supplied in the base software of the P800 and must therefore be installed separately. The package provided (StreamingAmr.sis) is used to add this Streaming AMR API to the device. Compatibility The Streaming AMR
