Symbian OS System Definition - Detailed View
Overview
We provide here information to complement that in the Symbian
OS System Definition. That paper categorises the high level system definition
components, relating these to availability on Symbian OS phones. But
it does not go into detail about the contents of these components.
We present here a more detailed description. We also indicate how their
composition has changed between OS releases. Finally it is explained
how this information now enables SDK users to work out for themselves
which APIs in the Symbian Developer Library are available on any particular
Symbian OS phone.
Symbian OS phones and UI platform
Even a cursory review of the Symbian
OS phones which have thus far
been launched or announced shows the flexibility of Symbian OS to support
a wide range of mobile phone products targeted at diverse markets. From
the viewpoint of the software developer, the rapid expansion of the target
market for Symbian OS phones, combined with the openness of the platform
to third party applications and services represents a clear business
opportunity.
However the diversity of products which has made possible the rapid
market penetration of Symbian OS phones also offers a challenge to software
developers, in that the software platform which application developers
must target is not defined uniquely by Symbian OS. In particular, Symbian
OS is created with a provisional user interface (called TechView) intended
only for testing and reference usage. This UI must ultimately be replaced
by a user interface suited for shipping on mobile phones. Not only that,
a number of applications, system services, device drivers etc. need to
be provided alongside Symbian OS for a phone to be produced.
To avoid
the difficulties which would otherwise ensue if Symbian OS phone development
were allowed to take place in an arbitrary way, Symbian introduced
the concept of UI platforms. Each UI platform provides
a distinct UI for Symbian OS and an associated set of system applications
for such
tasks as messaging, browsing, telephony, multimedia and contact/calendar
management. These applications typically make use of generic application
engines provided by Symbian OS. UI platforms intended to support
the installation of third party applications written in native C++
have to be supported by SDKs which define developer platforms based on
that
UI platform. There are currently four such UI platforms,
with as a result four flavours of SDK:
- Nokia Series 60
- Nokia
Series 80 (previously “9200 communicator series”)
- Nokia
Series 90
- UIQ
Phone manufacturers build their phone based on a particular UI platform,
licensing or writing for themselves any essential phone software or
device drivers required and any other custom software they
wish to bundle with their phone. To target a particular Symbian OS
phone, the independent software developer needs to know which developer
platform
(or SDK) is appropriate. This can be ascertained from the Symbian
Developer Network web site. This information does not in itself
define the phone's software capabilities. But since the further system
software which
has to be provided to build a phone typically does not have an application-level
API or else doesn't make such an API public, such changes will usually
not be of particular significance for the developer.
System Definition
This is not however the whole story. In practice it has proved necessary
to allow some leeway for Symbian OS licensees to modify, omit or replace
Symbian OS system software in a UI platform. Further the same
can happen to the UI platform software when it is incorporated
into a phone. Changes or omissions in relation to Symbian OS software
components designed for deployment on Symbian OS phones are controlled
by a categorisation scheme whereby all such software is categorised
under one of the following heads, depending on how core the software
component is:
These allow licensees varying degrees of flexibility, as is explained
in Symbian OS System
Definition. In that paper can also be found information
about the extent to which each of the Symbian OS phones released thus
far based on a UI platform has exercised this flexibility incorporating
changes which affect the availability of published Symbian OS APIs.
As it turns out licensees' policies in this regard are driven mainly
by a desire maximally to reuse Symbian OS system software components
where possible. The constraints associated with the categorisation
seldom come to bear.
No similar policy has been published in relation to reuse
of UI platform software in phones, but in practice any differences
between phones and their associated SDKs are fairly clear and predictable
in terms of the API set made available to third party developers. Further
details about such differences are best obtained from licensees' developer
support Web sites.
In the present paper we shall build on the information presented
in Symbian OS System
Definition. This latter paper should be seen as
a complement to this one. It provides a high level statement of which
system definition components belong to each of the above system definition
categories:
We shall provide here a much more detailed breakdown of each of these
system definition components into lower-level system components. For
each system component we shall indicate also the executables it is
composed of. In terms of Table 3, we will be filling out the bottom
two rows.
We will show at the same time how the composition of each system component
and system definition component has changed between OS releases from
version 6.0 to the current version 8.0. For each system component we
also clarify the accessibility of the associated API. There are three
levels of accessibility:
- Public
There is an API published in the Symbian Developer Library which
third party developers can take advantage of. The component may
in addition
have other interfaces which are not intended for third party usage.
- None
There is no API associated with this component as it provides functionality
invoked only by system code, for example to carry out conversions.
- Partner only
There is a programming interface associated with this component but
it is intended only for Symbian Platinum Partner or licensee
usage. Availability or replacement of such components on Symbian OS phones
does not affect the development platform for third party developers.
Notice
that components associated with Symbian's Java implementation have
not been included below. Since this provides no public API for
native apps, it is immaterial to the question addressed here about
public API support for native development.
It will be seen that the
information below, taken together with that readily available in
each edition of the Symbian Developer Library
concerning which executable exports each public API, it becomes
possible to associate each public API with a unique system definition
component.
Further, with reference to the Symbian
OS System Definition paper,
it can be ascertained which of the currently available Symbian OS
phones support each API. Such information should be of considerable
help to
developers targeting multiple Symbian OS phones.
