This document gives an overview of how device creators integrate the LBS subsystem into their products.
A device creator must complete a set of tasks to create a working LBS subsystem that can be used in a product. The precise configuration of the LBS subsystem depends on which features of LBS are required.
The documents in this section provide guidance to help device creators understand which LBS components must be included in their LBS subsystem based on their requirements.
Read LBS Architecture Overview for background information on the components of LBS on the Symbian platform.
There are two main LBS subsystem configurations that a device creator can build. Follow the links for more information on each of these.
Full LBS on the Symbian Platform
A device creator can configure the LBS subsystem to handle location requests from installed applications and from the network.
LBS in Standalone Privacy Mode
A device creator can configure the LBS subsystem to handle location requests from installed applications and privacy requests from the network.
Device creators must create and use components in the device domestic OS to handle location requests from the network. Creating these components is outside of the scope of this Symbian platform documentation, but the LBS APIs that they must use are described.
The Symbian platform contains several ROM macros that are used to build the LBS configurations described above.
See LBS ROM Macros for more information.
