Description

• The repeat definition is set to EAlarmRepeatDefintionRepeatOnce using TASShdAlarm::RepeatDefinition(). This enables the alarm to occur only once.

• The due time (expiry time) for the floating alarm is set in local time using TASShdAlarm::NextDueTime().

• The due time (expiry time) for the fixed alarm is set in universal time using TASShdAlarm::SetUtcNextDueTime().

• The floating alarm is set to display a message on expiry using TASShdAlarm::Message().

• The fixed alarm is set to play a sound on expiry using TASShdAlarm::SoundName(), along with displaying a message.

The alarm is added to the server queue using RASCliSession::AlarmAdd() and change event notification is requested from the server using RASCliSession::NotifyChange().

The application also demonstrates how to query the server for an alarm using its ID. The category and details of an alarm can be retrieved using RASCliSession::GetAlarmCategory() and RASCliSession::GetAlarmDetails() respectively. Finally, the alarm is deleted from the server using RASCliSession::AlarmDelete().

Usage

This is a console application, which builds an executable called AlaramServerExample.exe in the standard location (\epoc32\release\winscw\ <build_variant> for CodeWarrior). After launching the executable, depending on the emulator you are using, you may need to navigate from the app launcher/shell screen to view the console.
