The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

MMsvSessionObserver Question

Asked by int_acct in EPOC / Symbian Programming

Tags:

Hi,

I'm currently creating a Series 60 application on Nokia 6600. I'm trying to create a new message type. However, due to vast complexity, I do not wish to make use of the MTM architecture to achieve what I want. My problem mainly lies in how to listen to message events.

I'm really not sure if the following scenario will be possible, so I will need asistance from you guys who are a lot more experienced. Here it goes:

I have an Oracle server that stores all the necessary parts of a message. When the Oracle server receives a new message, I will like to send a specially formatted SMS to the recipient via a GPRS modem. After receiving that specially formatted SMS, the client will connect to my Oracle server and download the message via GPRS. The main problem is that it is unclear to me in terms of how to write the MMsvSessionObserver-derived class. What I want from the observer class is that if the SMS that is received is specially formatted (such as a constant prefix in the body etc), I want to handle the event, and at the same time, prevent the native handler from displaying the "1 New SMS Received" message on the screen. I will like to display my own message on the screen (eg. "1 New CMM Received)". However, if the SMS is determined by my observer to be a normal SMS (meaning not the specially formatted type that my observer is expecting), I want to pass control to the native handler.

The previous method doesn't seem to be possible, as I don't think it is possible to prevent the native handler from intercepting. One more way I have thought of is to send a signal to the recipient's phone, but not using the SMS module. However, I have absolutely no idea how to do this using a GPRS modem and without using SMS.

Does anyone have a solution for my problem?

PS: It will be helpful if anyone can explain to me how does the messaging server determine the type of MTM associated with the newly received message. Is there some sort of header associated with SMS/MMS? Maybe I can create my own header? But how?

Sorry for asking so much as one go, as I'm a complete beginner to Symbian C++. Any help will really be appreciated.Start Free Trial
