Problem

[rishabhgupta]

Hey all,
I have implemented the following program in Python s60 that waits for incoming messages and checks whether they are some kind of alert message from a predefined number.If so,it displays a message "Danger!!!" and waits for the user to press either Ok or Cancel.(also it starts playing an audio file infinitely).Depending on what the user presses,its either stops playing the file or starts again.

import appuifw
import inbox
import e32
import logs
import audio


nbr="+00000"
nbr_rec=0

app_lock = e32.Ao_lock()

def message_recieved(msg_id):
	global app_lock,nbr
	box = inbox.Inbox()
	sms_text = box.content(msg_id)
	l=logs.sms(mode='in')
	nbr_rec = l[0]["number"]
	print (u"Number Recieved is "+str(nbr_rec))
	if((nbr_rec==nbr) and (sms_text=="Test")):
		e32.ao_sleep(3)
		A = audio.Sound.open("C:\smsalertpolices03.mid")
		j=None
		A.play(audio.KMdaRepeatForever)
		while j is None:
			j=appuifw.query(u"Danger!!!","query")
		A.stop()
		A.close()
	app_lock.signal()

box = inbox.Inbox()
box.bind(message_recieved)

print (u"Waiting for new SMS messages.....")
app_lock.wait()
print(u"Message handled!")

Alls fine till this.But,I want the application to run in background so that the user can do other stuffs too like attending calls and other things.Only when the specific message comes it display the alert message and start playing the audio file.It works with this too.But the problem is that the message is displayed only when I open the Python shell and I can only stop the audio file by opening the python shell.

Is there any way to display the message/query globally and close the audio file from outside.

Plz Help me

One thing,this module only lists the predifined apps in the list or also includes the one we create like standalone applications.

And Rishabh the message display i have already told, still

note(text[, type[, global ] ])
Displays a note dialog of the chosen type with text (Unicode). The default value for type is 'info',
which is automatically used if type is not set. type can be one of the following strings: 'error',
'info', or 'conf'.
If global (integer) is any other value than zero a global note is displayed. A global note is displayed
even if the Python application calling this function is in background. The same set of types is
supported as in standard note.

Thnx Shubendra for your help.Now I m able to run python to the foreground with this module.One thing I wanna make a standalone application out of the program that i implemented.So in that also i need to bring it to the foreground.Does this appswitch module will also display the standalone application that i created in the apps list.Can i call the current application to be in the foreground with the appswitch.I hope u r getting what I am saying.

Yes, if you make a standalone application out of your script, and it is running in the background, appswitch will list it too.

And you can use it to trigger it to foreground.
