CObexBaseObject Class Reference

class CObexBaseObject : public CBase

Objects of this class are used to describe the objects to be transferred and those received via Obex. Consists of a number of attributes describing the object, along with methods to set them. CObexBaseObject is an abstract base class, which defines attribute setting and transferring functionality, but does not specify the storage mechanism for the data part (called the object body) of the object. This body part is defined in derived classes.

Object description attributes are tracked for validity automatically, so that only valid attributes are sent to the remote machine. Also has the concept of "header masks". This selects which of the various attributes will actually be sent out/read in when the object is used in an operation with the remote machine. Objects default to transferring all valid attributes, use the header mask if restriction is required on the headers exchanged.

See the various derived classes for description of object body representation.

The common attributes are defined to be as close to the underlying OBEX headers as usefully possible, hence any OBEX header specified as a Unicode string (e.g. Name) translate to TDes (variant) EPOC descriptors, "byte sequences" (e.g. Type) are TDes8 (or ASCII invariant), and byte and 32 bit integers (e.g. Length) are TUint32s.

This class is not designed for user derivation (ie. outside of this dll).

GuessTypeFromExtL(const TDesC &)

void GuessTypeFromExtL ( const TDesC & aExt ) [protected]

Makes a first level guess at setting the mime type from the file extension.

This API is deprecated and may be removed at any time. For any production applications, the versit and the Application architecture (see RApaLsSession::RecognizeData) provide far more flexibilty and robustness.

6.1

Parameters

const TDesC & aExt

HeaderMask()

IMPORT_C TObexHeaderMask HeaderMask ( )

Returns the currently set header mask. This defaults to 0xFF (i.e. allow everything) when Reset () or InitFromFileL is called. This does not specify which headers currently contain valid data--merely which headers will be transferred if they do contain valid data.

HeaderSet()

IMPORT_C const CObexHeaderSet & HeaderSet ( ) const

HeaderSet()

IMPORT_C CObexHeaderSet & HeaderSet ( )

Http()

IMPORT_C const RPointerArray < HBufC8 > * Http ( ) const

Firstly updates the iHttp list, ensuring that the entries are the same as those HTTP headers within the header set. (The iHttp list could have contained old headers that were removed from the headerset using the DeleteMasked operation) Returns a pointer to the Http header array or null if no headers defined.

InitReceive()

TInt InitReceive ( )

Prepare the object for receiving into.

InitSend(TObexOpcode)

TInt InitSend ( TObexOpcode aOpcode )

Prepare the object for sending. Each packet sent will contain aOpcode.

Parameters

TObexOpcode aOpcode

Length()

IMPORT_C TUint32 Length ( )

Gets the object's Length attribute.

Note this might not match the size of the file (if any) to transfer.

Name()

IMPORT_C const TDesC & Name ( )

Gets the object's Name attribute.

NewData(TInt, TDes8 &)

void NewData ( TInt aPos,
TDes8 & aDes
) [protected, pure virtual]

Parameters

TInt aPos
TDes8 & aDes

ParseNextReceivePacket(CObexPacket &)

TProgress ParseNextReceivePacket ( CObexPacket & aPacket )

Parse the passed packet, consuming headers into this object as appropriate. The returned progress can not be relied upon to indicate completion, because that is actually signalled at a diferent level, depending on the source of the packet(final bit or server complete response). Returning EComplete simply indicates that all of the object body has been received.

Parameters

CObexPacket & aPacket The packet to extract the headers from

PrepareConnectionHeader(CObexPacket &)

void PrepareConnectionHeader ( CObexPacket & aPacket )

Fill up the Connect command with the appropriate headers.

Parameters

CObexPacket & aPacket The packet to be filled

PrepareNextSendPacket(CObexPacket &)

TProgress PrepareNextSendPacket ( CObexPacket & aPacket )

Fill up aPacket with whatever is left to be sent of the object. Trys to get attribute headers out asap, and tacks as much of the data part of the object onto the end of each packet as will fit. Returned value goes to EComplete on the call *after* the final packet has been written(i.e. indicates nothing left to do).

Parameters

CObexPacket & aPacket The packet to be filled

Reset()

IMPORT_C void Reset ( )

Resets the object, to make it represent nothing.

Call this before setting a CObexObject to represent a new object.

ResetData()

void ResetData ( ) [protected, pure virtual]

ResetHeaders()

void ResetHeaders ( ) [protected]

Sets header mask to 1's (include all), but valid mask to 0's (none valid). Also reset progress indicators to avoid any un-initialised transfer attempts

SetAppParamL(const TDesC8 &)

IMPORT_C void SetAppParamL ( const TDesC8 & aDesc )

Sets the Application Parameters attribute of the object.

This is expected to be of the format Tag-Length-Value, but this is not enforced.

Parameters

const TDesC8 & aDesc Application Parameters attribute

SetConnectionIdL(TUint32)

void SetConnectionIdL ( TUint32 aFourByte )

Set the connection id. This method will check the headerset for a connectionId header. If one if located, then this will be modified for the new HV value. If not, a new connectionId header will be added.

Parameters

TUint32 aFourByte The connectionID to be set

SetDescriptionL(const TDesC &)

IMPORT_C void SetDescriptionL ( const TDesC & aDesc )

Sets the Description attribute of the object.

This is currently the easiest way to send proprietary information along with an object.

Parameters

const TDesC & aDesc Description attribute

SetHeaderMask(const TObexHeaderMask)

IMPORT_C void SetHeaderMask ( const TObexHeaderMask aHeaderMask )

Sets the header mask. aHeaderMask is built up by bit-wise or ing any of the KObexHdr... constants. For example, if it is set to KObexHdrName | KObexHdrLength, only these two headers will be specified in transfer operations with the remote machine, even if there are other valid attributes which could be used. In effect, this mask is bit-wise and ed with the "valid headers" mask when determining which headers are valid for the purposes of transfers.

Parameters

const TObexHeaderMask aHeaderMask

SetLengthL(const TUint32)

IMPORT_C void SetLengthL ( const TUint32 aLength )

Sets the Length attribute of the object, in bytes.

Note that this does not necessarily have to match the exact size of the body data, but is used to give an indication of the size to the receiving end.

Parameters

const TUint32 aLength Length attribute of the object

SetNameL(const TDesC &)

IMPORT_C void SetNameL ( const TDesC & aDesc )

Sets the Name attribute of the object.

The Name is used to identify the object to the remote machine (or to identify a received object). Note that in general, this is quite distinct from the CObexFileObject::DataFile() attribute, which specifies where the body of the object is stored.

Parameters

const TDesC & aDesc Name attribute

SetTargetL(const TDesC8 &)

IMPORT_C void SetTargetL ( const TDesC8 & aDesc )

Sets the Target attribute of the object.

Generally, this will only have any useful meaning if the session Who attribute of the remote machine is recognised, and particularly, when connected to a strict peer (see CObex::IsStrictPeer() ).

Parameters

const TDesC8 & aDesc Target attribute

SetTimeHeaderL(const TDesC8 &)

void SetTimeHeaderL ( const TDesC8 & aTimeDes ) [protected]

Add a descriptor as the one and only Time header in an object.

Parameters

const TDesC8 & aTimeDes A narrow descriptor which will be stored in the object.

SetTimeL(const TTime)

IMPORT_C void SetTimeL ( const TTime aLocalTime )

Sets the Time attribute of the object (stored in UTC).

Parameters

const TTime aLocalTime Time attribute in local time

SetTypeL(const TDesC8 &)

IMPORT_C void SetTypeL ( const TDesC8 & aDesc )

Sets the Type attribute of the object.

This should be in the form of a valid IANA media type (see http://www.iana.org/assignments/media-types/index.html ).

Parameters

const TDesC8 & aDesc Type attribute

SetUtcTimeL(const TTime)

void SetUtcTimeL ( const TTime aUtcTime ) [protected]

Sets the Time attribute of the object (stored in UTC).

Parameters

const TTime aUtcTime Time attribute in local time

Target()

IMPORT_C const TDesC8 & Target ( )

Gets the object's Target attribute.

Time()

IMPORT_C const TTime Time ( )

Returns the time attribute of the object in local time. Returns TTime (0) if no valid time has been set.

Type()

IMPORT_C const TDesC8 & Type ( )

Gets the object's Type attribute.

ValidHeaders()

IMPORT_C TObexHeaderMask ValidHeaders ( )

Returns the current valid header mask. This allows inspection of the current set of valid headers, particularly useful for determining whether a put object contained a body header (important for deleting files as part of file transfer).
