parents:
diff changeset
    14
is (e.g. the thread or process), you can use other tools to perform more
hgs
parents:

    15
detailed inspection.

Installation Notes:

    41
===================
hgs
parents:
diff changeset
    42
MemSpy is typically preinstalled on ROM. If not, it can be added to the
hgs
parents:
diff changeset
    43
ROM with the .iby file. Alternatively, a .sis file can be found under the sis-
hgs
parents:
diff changeset
    44
directory, but the user needs to sign it with their own developer certificate.
hgs
parents:
diff changeset
    45
In Nokia R&D environment, you can use directly the R&D-signed .sis file under 
hgs
parents:
diff changeset
    46
the internal\sis directory.
hgs
parents:
