New Updates for Open C Technology
Nokia Ron | 22 January, 2008 06:10
Check out the recent updates of the Open C Technology section on Forum Nokia. Where you can find, for example, these resources:
-A new Quick Start page provides developers new to Open C with direct links to important development tool and documentation resources to jump-start development.
Three advanced Open C example applications (incorporating a complete UI):
-Open C IRC Example (ported from Open Source software)
-Open C FTP Client Example (ported from Open Source software)
-Open C: SMS Crypto Example with Python UI; also a Symbian C++ UI is provided for comparison purposes
The examples include documentation on porting/development experiences.
-Tips for Selecting Open Source Code for an Open C Project:
Note also that starting from S60 3rd Edition, Feature Pack 2, Open C is now a preinstalled part of the S60 platform. Porting open source software to the S60 platform should now be easier than ever!

S60 Programming Competition
Nokia Ron | 17 January, 2008 05:32
Forum Nokia has launched a new competition for S60 developers. There will be a new programming challenge on a monthly basis and the best solutions will be awarded.
For discussion visit Forum Nokia's newest discussion board.
Problem for January:S60 supports multiple different runtimes and programming languages. The aim in this months competion is to come up with the glue that combines different runtimes. We're asking you to design and implement a framework that unifies the S60 runtimes. The goal is intercommunication of runtimes (f.ex. Symbian C++, Java, Flash, Python, Web Runtimes, you name it…). With this kind of runtime interaction it is possible to access totally new features and re-use existing solutions in a manner that is unheard of. Please provide us with your framework implementation and also atleast one working example of runtimes interworking. If you don't have time to implement all the needed parts let us know your ideas and planned design to score more points in the contest.
The January's competion is open until 15th of February (15.2.2008) and we hope to have the best solutions published by the end of February.
See the contest web site for Contest Rules and Informtion

Everything you wanted to know about VoIP
Nokia Ron | 16 January, 2008 05:19
This week the Ask the Expert topic is VoIP (Voice over Internet Protocol). I doln't know about you as a developer but as a consumer this really thrills me. The idea of being able to use my cell phone in my home as a house phone and then taking it with me anywhere and having the same number is great. I have a VoIP phone in my house now well it is a cable internet phone but it is great. Now to converge the technology with my multimedia device has me thinking wow. Of course I can use my N800 and do VoIP and browse the web or I can do the internet wtih wirelss LAN but wow lets do this seamlessly
If you are curious, this weeks ask the expert is on VoIP and he is eager to answer your questions. If you have any questions for our expert in this smoking hot technology we will try to answer them as promptly as possible.

Ask the Expert about Symbian Platform Security, manufacturing grantable capabilities and Java verified.
Nokia Ron | 07 January, 2008 22:27
Forum Nokia devotes one week to answering questions on a specific topic on our discussion boards. The Nokia expert that will answer the questions daily that are within their expertise as long as it is a reasonable question or comment.
We are fortunate this week to have an expert on application signing, one of the hottest topics on the discussion boards. I am sure there are lots of questions about Symbian Platform Security, manufacturer grantable capabilities and Java signing.
So if you have any questions about Symbian Platform Security, manufacturer grantable capabilities and Java signing please ask them. However, Symbian Signed questions are to be asked at the web site set up for Sybmian Signed questions and not in Forum Nokia.
