<p>Multimode telephony extends the basic telephony interfaces offered by the

core telephony API. Similar to the Core telephony API, the Multimode API take

client requests and passes them to the ETel server. The server then passes

the request to the telephony driver of the device (<filepath>.TSY</filepath> module),

which manages communications with the telephony hardware itself. Depending

on the device, the <filepath>.TSY</filepath> may support a single mode for

example GSM or be multimode. </p>

<p>The following diagram shows these component relationships: </p>

</fig>

<p>Much of the functionality defined in Multimode ETel is <i>optional</i>,

meaning that a .TSY is not required to support it. Clients should use the

capability-checking interfaces supplied by Multimode ETel to ensure that such

functionality is available before attempting to use it. </p>

in the Core and Multimode APIs and their inheritance relationships. The top

package is ETel Core, the lower package is Multimode ETel. </p> <fig id="GUID-90475AD2-04DF-5ECE-BA0D-28FD9500E6AB">

conciseness, the code samples do not use active objects, but, unrealistically,

synchronously wait for the function to return (using <codeph>User::WaitForRequest()</codeph>). </p> </section>

<section id="GUID-E065354F-66E6-57B4-A7E7-C4C3A6038939"><title>High-level

multimode capabilities</title> <p>A TSY is not required to support all the

functionality defined by Multimode telephony although it supports all core

telephony functionality. Optional functionality is divided by the API into

a number of functional areas, such as, support for Call Waiting, and for SMS

messaging. To query a TSY about the functional areas it supports, use <xref href="GUID-9CE46AD7-722E-3831-A359-C90A350E931D.dita"><apiname>RTelServer::IsSupportedByModule()</apiname></xref>. </p> <p>Flags

for the functional areas are defined in enumerations. <xref href="GUID-9CE46AD7-722E-3831-A359-C90A350E931D.dita"><apiname>TMultimodeETelV1Api</apiname></xref> defines

flags for the functional areas. <xref href="GUID-9CE46AD7-722E-3831-A359-C90A350E931D.dita"><apiname>TMultimodeETelV2Api</apiname></xref>, <xref href="GUID-9CE46AD7-722E-3831-A359-C90A350E931D.dita"><apiname>TMultimodeETelV3Api</apiname></xref>, and <xref href="GUID-9CE46AD7-722E-3831-A359-C90A350E931D.dita"><apiname>TMultimodeETelV4Api</apiname></xref> define

flags for additional functional areas defined in later releases. </p> <p>Functional

areas have individual query functions that offer detailed capability information

on that area. For example, <xref href="GUID-9CE46AD7-722E-3831-A359-C90A350E931D.dita"><apiname>RMobilePhone::GetMultimodeCaps()</apiname></xref> queries

for the phone's supported modes. </p> <p><b>Example </b> </p> <p>The following code tests if the TSY supports multimode

telephony API at all, by querying using the <xref href="GUID-9CE46AD7-722E-3831-A359-C90A350E931D.dita"><apiname>KETelExtMultimodeV1</apiname></xref> flag.

If multimode is supported, then other flags can be used to query for support

for particular areas. </p> <p>The code assumes <codeph>iTsyName</codeph> holds

the name of the TSY in use. </p> <codeblock id="GUID-6EE6B824-942D-573E-8197-96DB4D5A483B" xml:space="preserve">TInt funcFlags = KETelExtMultimodeV1;

TBool result = EFalse;

iTelServer.IsSupportedByModule(iTsyName, funcFlags, result);

if (result)

    // if MM supported...

</codeblock> <p><b>Notes </b> </p> <p>Some <xref href="GUID-9CE46AD7-722E-3831-A359-C90A350E931D.dita"><apiname>TMultimodeETelV1Api</apiname></xref> flags

specify areas common to all modes, others to particular modes. </p> </section>

<section id="GUID-BAF464B8-6CFA-5FCB-B488-CD02CD187465"><title>Multimode phone

number</title> <p>A phone number for use with the multimode telephony is stored

as a <xref href="GUID-9CE46AD7-722E-3831-A359-C90A350E931D.dita"><apiname>RMobilePhone::TMobileAddress</apiname></xref> object.

This has a buffer that stores the phone number and flags indicating the type

of number for example national, international and network specific. It also

stores the numbering plan for example national, ISDN and telex formats in

which the number is stored. </p> <p><b>Example </b> </p> <p>The following code creates an address object to store

an international phone number, formatted using the national number plan. In

this example the UK representation of a Swedish number is used. </p> <codeblock id="GUID-77D958D7-0194-5F69-AF3E-6D6B98EA8D23" xml:space="preserve">RMobilePhone::TMobileAddress address;

_LIT(KANumber, "+46 123 4567");

address.iTypeOfNumber = RMobilePhone::EInternationalNumber;

address.iNumberPlan = RMobilePhone::ENationalNumberPlan;
