FileList 1.1
FileList is a simple example application for browsing multimedia files on a Symbian device. This application, which is ported from a Symbian C++ version, is developed with Qt Quick components and is based on the Symbian design guidelines. The example also features a fast-loading, efficient splash screen, implemented completely with QML code.
Drumkit
Drumkit is a virtual drumkit that lets you play percussion sounds by tapping sound pads, recording the beats, and playing them back. This example is hosted in Nokia Developer Projects, where you can find implementation notes, discover recent revisions, and contribute to the project.
Lucid Screensaver v1.0
A simple screensaver project for Qt on Symbian. The screensaver is designed for Symbian^3 AMOLED devices, which allow the continuous displaying of an image with very low power consumption.
ePong v1.0
ePong is an arcade style tennis sports game example. It was first implemented in Symbian C++ and then ported to Qt with Qt GameEnabler. This example is hosted in a Nokia Developer Project.
S60 Platform: Camera Example v3.0
This updated Symbian C++ code example demonstrates how to easily use the onboard camera with zoom and autofocus, utilising an accompanying CameraWrapper made by Forum Nokia. The Camera Wrapper supports all Nokia's S60 devices based on S60 3rd Edition and newer, providing a unified interface for various Symbian and S60 camera APIs some of which have previously been Feature Pack specific or only available via an SDK plug-in. The example application supports the use of both the keypad and touch UI. The application can be self-signed, but it also provides an option to use the dedicated camera key (Symbian signing required). The example application replaces the separate examples published for S60 3rd Edition, FP1 (S60 Platform: Camera Example with AutoFocus Support v2.2) and FP2 (S60 Camera Example AutoFocus 3rd Ed FP2).
S60 Platform: Localisation Example v1.1
This updated C++ code example demonstrates how to localise an application to adapt to the selected phone language. The example application has two sets of localised strings (English and German) for the application name, labels, text, and image. The application also includes number, currency, date, and time localisation, in which the TLocale method is used for localisation even if the selected phone language is neither one of the two application languages. This updated example has been tested to support S60 5th Edition and touch UI.
S60 Platform: FileList Example v2.2
This updated C++ code example demonstrates how to list files in a specific directory. It helps developers in creating user-friendly applications that allow users to choose files from a list of specific file types. Middle softkey labelling is supported (introduced in S60 3rd Edition, Feature Pack 2). The updated version has been tested to support S60 5th Edition and touch UI. Important classes: PathInfo, CDocumentHandler.
S60 5th Edition: Solitaire Game Example v1.1
This updated C++ example application demonstrates a fully touch-optimised application using various touch UI features of S60 5th Edition with direct manipulation. Besides tapping the cards, the user can drag and drop them using a finger or the stylus. The application demonstrates handling pointer events of custom made UI controls. Also, tactile feedback using the Touch Feedback API is received. Double buffering is used to draw on the screen to avoid flickering. By default, the cards are implemented as Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) icons, but the example also provides an option to draw them using methods of the graphics context class CWindowGc. In the updated version, major drawing optimisation has been done. The example application was developed for S60 5th Edition and touch UI. Important classes: CCoeControl, MTouchFeedback, CFbsBitmap, CWindowGc.
S60 Platform: HTTP Client Example v2.2
This updated C++ application demonstrates simple HTTP GET and POST transactions using the HTTP Client API. Basic HTTP authentication is also supported. The updated example uses application-level roaming (introduced in S60 3rd Edition, Feature Pack 2 onwards). The updated example has been tested to support S60 5th Edition and touch UI. Note that this version supports S60 3rd Edition, Feature Pack 2 and S60 5th Edition. Important classes: RHTTPSession, RHTTPTransaction, RHTTPHeaders, MHTTPDataSupplier, MHTTPAuthenticationCallback, MHTTPTransactionCallback.
S60 Platform: Rich Text Editor Example
This updated C++ code example demonstrates the usage of Rich Text Editor. Most of the features are handled automatically when the dialog framework creates the editor. However, some steps, such as inserting an image, setting the text input type, and showing the scroll bar, require the use of methods or classes. The updated example has been modified to support S60 5th Edition and touch UI. Main classes: CEikRichTextEditor, CFbsBitmap, TPictureHeader, CPicture.
