You can enable the device user to launch a Symbian application from an application help by providing a link in the application help.
Use the <a>
tag in an HTML topic of your application
help to provide link to a Symbian application.
Note: You must be aware of the path and UID of the Symbian application that you want to launch from your application help.
Open the HTML topic from which you want to launch the Symbian application.
Add the following code in the HTML topic from where you want to launch the Symbian application:
<a href="app://cmd@localhost/name_of_the_application_exe/UID_of_the_application">Name_of_the_application</a>
Where
name_of_the_application_exe
is the name of
the executable of the Symbian application that you want to launch.
UID_of_the_application
is the UID of the Symbian
application that you want to launch.
Name_of_the_application
is the name of the
Symbian application that you want to launch.
For example:
<a href="app://cmd@localhost/cshelphelloworld_0x2002c37b.exe/0x2002c37b">CS Help Helloworld</a>
Save the HTML topic.
Integrate the application help with your Symbian application and launch it. For details, see Integrating and testing the application help.
