Plug-ins connect to the system using the EPOC Component Object Model -(ECom). ECom is based on client/server architecture and provides services -to instantiate, resolve, and destroy instances of plug-ins at run time. For -more information, see the ECom -Architecture.

A hostile or malfunctioning plug-in may cause crashes or security leaks, -even on otherwise well-tested applications. The platform -security architecture protects the processes by verifying that the -plug-in has equal or greater set of capabilities than the process in which -it is loaded. For more information, see the ECom -and the Platform Security Architecture.

Communication -plug-ins -

It is possible to use plug-ins to implement additional functionality -to serial, socket, and messaging frameworks. These plug-ins are especially -important for security because they deal with communication.

  • For serial communication there are serial protocol modules -(CSY modules ), which are loaded by the Serial Comms Server. For more information -on serial communication, see Serial -Communications Server.

    • -

  • For socket-based communication there are protocol modules -(PRT), which are loaded by the Socket Server. For more information on socket-based -communication, see Socket -Server.

    • -

  • For messaging there are Message Type Modules (MTM), which -include both client and server components. MTMs are a set of dlls -rather than a single dll. For more information, see Message Type Module.
