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 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.
Open C++: Memory Game Example v1.1
This updated Open C++ example application demonstrates a simple memory game. The game engine part was written in Open C++ and the UI part was written in Symbian C++. The application supports S60 3rd Edition and S60 5th Edition devices. Keypad and touch UI are supported depending on the device. In this updated version, the UIDs of the help files and the package file have been changed for improved compatibility. Important classes: RTimer, CMdaAudioPlayerUtility, CAknQueryDialog, CAknMessageQueryDialog, CAknRadioButtonSettingPage, CEikTextListBox, CFbsBitmap, CAknIndicatorContainer, MTouchFeedback.
S60 Platform: Sudoku Game Example
This C++ example demonstrates how to implement a simple custom UI game that handles different layouts and multiple screen resolutions, and supports several input methods (keyboard and touch UI). Classes: CCoeControl, CFont, AknUtils, CFbsBitmap, CFbsBitGc, CFbsBitmapDevice
S60 Platform: Scalable Screen-Drawing Example v1.4
This C++ application demonstrates scalable screen drawing with Direct Screen Access and custom drawing routines using SVG-T icons and bitmaps. The application scales to multiple display resolutions in portrait and landscape orientations supported by the S60 platform. This example is targeted especially at games and multimedia developers who prefer developing a custom UI instead of using an automatically scaling UI, such as S60 Avkon components. Labeling for the middle softkey has been added in the updated version. The application supports middle-softkey labeling and it has been updated to be compatible with S60 5th Edition and touch UI. Important classes: CIconFileProvider, MDirectScreenAccess, MAknIconFileProvider, CCoeControl (HandleResourceChange() method and KEikDynamicLayoutVariantSwitch), CEikAppUi (ApplicationRect(), Orientation(), and SetOrientationL() methods), AknLayoutUtils (PenEnabled() method).
