API for accessing address book

[ralienpp]

Is there an API that provides access to the address-book stored in the phone or on the SIM card?

I've been browsing this forum and reading various FAQs, but I failed to find a definite answer to this question.

I figured that it may have something to do with the fact that Python is not the 'lingua franca' of Symbian, so I checked out what happens with the other languages.
The best I could find about the phonebook on the SIM card is that it may be achieved via SATSA on Java, but this is not supported by every phone.

Can someone offer a few hints on this one? What would be the most universal way of getting access to the contacts (either in the phone's memory, or on the SIM card)?

Try chapter 5: 05. Contacts and Calendar of the Python on Symbian book

Thank you, that's what I needed.

Having reviewed that resource, I found no references to accessing the SIM card from Python. Does that mean it is not possible? Or is there a chance that such info may be available elsewhere?
