10 Product Description: |
|
11 ==================== |
|
12 Launcher is a testing utility application aimed to help test the launching of |
|
13 applications installed in the system, both on user side disk drives and on |
|
14 ROM. Launcher tests if an application can be launched and then, if the launch |
|
15 has failed, reports the possible reason for the failure. It is a very useful |
|
16 application when checking the build as the user can instantly see if the |
|
17 applications work. Launcher can also be used when testing binary |
|
18 compatibility issues because it can reveal any DLL files missing from the |
|
19 device. |
|
20 |
|
21 Main Features: |
|
22 ============== |
|
23 - Show a list of installed applications in all drives |
|
24 - Launch selected applications and read their statuses from threads |
|
25 - In case of a failure, report thread's exit type, reason and category |
|
26 - Show missing DLL files required by the binary to be launched |
|
27 - Show problems on the UI and print all cases to a log file |
|
28 - Generate a list of DLLs in the device to a file |
|
29 - Analyse binary compatibility of system DLLs comparing them to a user |
|
30 given reference data. Report any binary compatibility issues or missing |
|
31 DLL files. |

44 Installation Notes: |
|
45 =================== |
|
46 Launcher is typically preinstalled on ROM. If not, it can be added to the |
|
47 ROM with the .iby file. Alternatively, a .sis file can be found under the sis- |
|
48 directory, but the user needs to sign it with their own developer certificate. |
|
49 In Nokia R&D environment, you can use directly the R&D-signed .sis file under the |
|
50 internal\sis directory. |
|
51 |
|
52 When signing with own developer certificate, the following capabilities are |
|
53 needed: |
|
54 PowerMgmt |
|
55 ReadDeviceData |
|
56 WriteDeviceData |
|
57 AllFiles |
|
58 ReadUserData |
|
59 WriteUserData |

|
61 When building Launcher against S60 3.0 or 3.1, you may need to patch your SDK |
|
62 environment first with some fixes. For more information, please refer to the |
|
63 instructions under the "envpatcher" directory. |
