Controlling the shutdown/power-off events

[dgaur]

Hi All,

I am trying to control the power-off events. My requirement is, when power-off button is clicked send a SMS out. Once the SMS is sent out (RunL is called of SMS Sender Active Object), continue the power-off sequence. That is, till the SMS is sent out phone should not shut-down.

I am able to trap the power-off events in HandleWsEvents as well as in HandleSystemEventL. But these functions doesnt allows me to suspend the power-off sequence till I am done with SMS sending.

I am trying this on 3rd Edition. Please throw a light on this subject.

Regards

Can I ask for the power event code?? maybe I can look at it...

I guess that it's an EApaSystemEventShutdown event. Try out to handle it:

void CTestAppUi::HandleSystemEventL(const TWsEvent& aEvent)
   {
   switch (*(TApaSystemEvent*)(aEvent.EventData()))
     {
     case EApaSystemEventShutdown:
       // do things here
       break;
     default:
       break;
     }
   // call base class implementation
   CAknAppUi::HandleSystemEventL(aEvent);
   }
