Starting as Target

Using the target

The following tasks will be covered in this tutorial:

• Starting a target

• Stopping a target

Basic procedure

The high level steps to start a target are:

• Create a target interface

• Open a connectionless session

Starting a target

The steps required to start a device as a remote control target are given below:

1. Create a target interface by instantiating an interface selector using CRemConInterfaceSelector::NewL() , as shown here:

            
             
            
            CRemConInterfaceSelector* iInterfaceSelector;
   iInterfaceSelector = CRemConInterfaceSelector::NewL();
           

2. Create a core remote control API target and add the interface selector created above as shown here:

            
             
            
            CRemConCoreApiTarget* iCoreTarget;iCoreTarget = 
      CRemConCoreApiTarget::NewL(*iInterfaceSelector,*this);
           

   The *iInterfaceSelector is the CRemConCoreApiTarget interface selector and *this is the owning observer. The remote control framework observers are used to send and receive commands and responses.

3. Open the above interface using CRemConInterfaceSelector::OpenTargetL() .

            
             
            
            iInterfaceSelector->OpenTargetL();
           

The above code will start a device as a remote control target that is able to receive and handle remote control commands.

Stopping a target

To stop your target use:

       
        
       
       delete iInterfaceSelector;
