Finding the correct IAP amongst the IAPs provided by CommDbViewTable

[Suyash]

Hi,

I am using CCommsDbTableView to get the IAP for sending data through my application without the IAP dialog prompt.

Sometimes, like when I change the SIM, the application still tries to send the data using the previous service providers IAP and fails.
Is it possible to find the correct IAP which would successfully send the data irrespective of SIM.

Thanks & Regards,
Suyash.

what kind of type is the IAP which you use?

If WLAN AP, you can select it by searching its SSID.

Thanks for the Reply,

Actually I am using the Internet Acees Point(IAP), to connect device to the Internet for which I am using the following code:

CCommsDatabase* iCommsDB = CCommsDatabase::NewL(EDatabaseTypeIAP) );
CCommsDbConnectionPrefTableView* gprsTableCommsDBView = iCommsDB->OpenIAPTableViewMatchingBearerSetLC(ECommDbBearerGPRS,ECommDbConnectionDirectionOutgoing);
gprsTableCommsDBView->GotoFirstRecord();
gprsTableCommsDBView->ReadUintL( TPtrC(COMMDB_ID),iConnId) );


Now, I am using the above iConnId provided by the first record of the table. If this first record is the same IAP used by the service provider it sends the data successfully,
but if the first record of the table returns some other IAP(may be IAP which was used by the previous service provider) it will not send data.

We can also iterate through all the records of the table but how to check which IAP is to be used ??????
Do I have to send the data using all the IAPs one by one and check which one gives THttpEvent::ESucceded ??????
Their must be some other way to find the correct working IAP.

Thanks in Advance,
Suyash.

the commDB table can be changed by using different SIM, special for Internet AP, GPRS AP, WAP AP etc.


you should better know the AP name or IAP_ID first and don't to use the

gprsTableCommsDBView->GotoFirstRecord();

but by seaching for the correct IAP_ID and connect it.

That's ok.
But my application is a deamon process always running in backgroung and needs to be intelligent enough to decide which IAP to use for sending data irrespective of any SIM being used by the user.
How should I check which IAP to use ?????

I think, you can get the IAP for internet by checking its type.
