Failed to get image from camera - N95

[prchakal]

Hi,

I have a N95 and im using WRT to get an image from my camera, but when i execute the code, i got an error.

CODE:

// tenta pegar camera
var so = null;
// Lets first create camera object.
try {
	so = com.nokia.device.load("", "com.nokia.device.camera", "");
} catch (e) {
	alert("Error loading camera : " + e);
	return;
}
;

// Lets try to launch camera application.
var tid = so.startCamera(onCameraAppLoaded, onCameraError);

ERROR MESSAGE WHEN EXECUTED BY N95:

Can't find variable: com

Hello there, prchakal!

Basically you have done all the correct steps, but what is missing is the support for Platform Services 2.0 and thus access to the onboard camera on that specific phone model, N95 (at the time of writing).

(Generic test for the camera and how to do it best way, here: http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.ph...feature_in_WRT)

This is directly from the release notes of the Platform Services 2.0 API:

"Target Devices


Full feature set supported on

N97 (V 20.0.019 and later)
N97 Mini (V 10.0.020 and later)

Partially supported on other WRT 1.1 compatible devices.
http://fwd4.me/G9S"

furthermore related to the last line on previous;

S60 platform support

The APIs are fully supported in the Nokia N97 mobile computer (firmware release V20.0.019 or later) and Nokia N97 mini (firmware release V 10.0.020 or later). Full support is expected on other devices by firmware updates.

Until they receive firmware updates, devices that implement the WRT 1.1 API will not support the new asynchronous APIs for Calendar, Messaging, and Landmarks. PS 1.0 APIs should be used on these devices.

See the release notes for more details. Similar, partial support for the APIs is provided in the emulator from the S60 5th Edition SDK for Symbian OS.

...

With Nokia Platform Services 2.0, you can write WRT widgets that access a device’s camera, GPS unit, sensors, contacts records, calendar entries, messages, landmarks, media files, log entries, and system status information.

And what comes for the emulator environment,

To use Nokia Platform Services 2.0, include the JavaScript library in your widget or install the JavaScript library into the emulator supplied in the S60 5th Edition SDK for Symbian OS or Nokia N97 SDK for Symbian OS and any target devices.
