[moved] First application on symbian

[lewcianci]

Hi all,

I am wanting to create an application for my Nokia e51. Basically what I want it to do, is dial a number, wait for 5 seconds, and then send another string of numbers. I have explored how to do this with Java and Pys60 but I can't seem to find an easy way of doing this.

What would be the best language to accomplish this sort of goal? A mockup of my code (or what I want it to do) is below (sorta in autoit3-esque coding)

Sleep(3000)
DialNumber(1800182412)
Sleep(5000)
DialNumber(3515353133415)

Any help would be greatly appreciated

you could do it rather easily with Symbian C++, you could maybe start by checking timer & CTelephony examples from the wiki.

Okay this is my first time bashing around with C++ on any platform so forgive me if i ask some stupid questions.

Basically, how to i invoke the timer command, or tell it to wait for 5 seconds for that matter? And how do I tell the telephony function you mentioned what numbers to dial? I had a read of the wiki but I can't understand it.

Easiest way to start would be to search a bit in our Wiki, it has plenty of examples and some of them would fit your use case directly, thus could you just spend a minute and try it out.

For the dialing, here's one link: http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.ph...ith_CTelephony
