Installation Notes:

===================

FileBrowser is typically preinstalled on ROM. If not, it can be added to the

ROM with the .iby file. Alternatively, the .sis file can be found under the sis-

directory, but the user need to sign it with their own developer certificate.

In Nokia R&D environment, you can use directly the R&D-signed .sis file under the

internal\sis directory.

FileBrowser is provided as full and lite version. Lite version is aimed for

those who cannot sign with TCB capability. Lite version can be generated by

defining FILEBROWSER_LITE flag and then by recompiling the application and

regenerating the sis file.

When signing with own developer certificate, the following capabilities are

needed in the lite version:

  ReadDeviceData

  WriteDeviceData

  DiskAdmin

  AllFiles

  SwEvent

  NetworkServices

  LocalServices

  ReadUserData

  WriteUserData

  Location

  UserEnvironment

The full version requires these addtional capabilities:

  CommDD

  PowerMgmt

  MultimediaDD

  DRM

  TrustedUI

  ProtServ

  NetworkControl

  SurroundingsDD

  TCB

When builing FileBrowser against S60 3.0 or 3.1, you may need to patch your SDK

environment first with some fixes. For more information, please refer to the

instructions under the "envpatcher" directory.
