Using URIs from the URI List

The URI List framework provides two classes for URI list operation: RInetUri and RInetUriList. RInetUri represents a handle to the URI and its associated properties (like service type, list type, permission and favourite name). RInetUriList represents a handle to the entire list and provides APIs for adding URIs to the list, removing URIs from the list, and updating URIs in the list. Before performing any operation, a session with URI List Server should be created by calling RInetUriList::OpenL().

This section contains the following subsections:

Adding a URI to the list
Removing a URI from the list
Updating a URI in the list

Adding a URI to the list

A URI can be added to the list using the following API:

void AddL(const RInetUri& aInetUri)

Where the RInetUri parameter is the Uri property object that contains all properties of a URI. Sample code to add URIs to the list is shown here.

//Create the URI
_LIT8(KUri, “http://www.nokia.com”);

//Create a RInetUri object
RInetUri uriObject;

//Now initialise the object with Uri properties. 
    uriObject.CreateL ( KUri, EWapPush, EBlackList);
    CleanupClosePushL(uriObject);

//Now create the RInetUriList object
    RInetUriList uriListObj;

//Create a server session
    uriListObj.OpenL();
    CleanupClosePushL(uriListObj);

//Now add the Uri to list. 
    uriListObj.AddL(uriObject);

//Pop and close the server session.
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy ( &uriListObj);

//Pop and free up memory of uri property object.
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy ( &uriObject);

The RInetUri::CreateL function accepts a reference to an 8-bit descriptor only. By default, the permission attribute of Uri is set to EReadWrite. RInetUri::Close should be called to free up the memory.

Removing a URI from the list

The RInetUriList class provides the following API for removing a URI from the list:

void RemoveL(const RInetUri& aInetUri)

Where the RInetUri parameter is the Uri property object. This object handle can be obtained by calling RInetUriList::OpenInetUriL(), and passing URI and service type. Sample code to remove URIs from the list is shown here:

_LIT8(KUri “http://www.nokia.com”);
    RInetUri uriObject;
    RInetUriList uriListObj;
    uriListObj.OpenL();
    CleanupClosePushL(uriListObj);

    uriObject = uriListObj. OpenInetUriL(KUri, EBrowser);
    CleanupClosePushL(uriObject);
    uriListObj.RemoveL(uriObject);

//Pop and close the server session.
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy ( &uriListObj);

//Pop and free up memory of uri property object.
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy ( &uriObject);

Updating a URI in the list

The RInetUriList class provides the following API for updating properties of a URI in the list:

void UpdateL(const RInetUri& aInetUri)

Where the RInetUri parameter is the Uri property object. This object handle can be obtained by calling RInetUriList::OpenInetUriL(), and passing URI and service type. Only favourite name and list type of a URI can be updated. Sample code to update a URI in the list is shown here.

_LIT8(KUri “http://www.nokia.com”);
    _LIT8(KUriFavoritename “Home Page of Symbian”);
    RInetUri uriObject;
    RInetUriList uriListObj;
    uriListObj.OpenL();
    CleanupClosePushL(uriListObj);

    uriObject = uriListObj. OpenInetUriL(KUri, EBrowser);
    CleanupClosePushL(uriObject);
    uriObject.SetListType(EBlackList);
    uriObject.SetFavoriteNameL(KUriFavoritename);
    uriListObj.UpdateL(uriObject);

//Pop and close the server session.
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy ( &uriListObj);

//Pop and free up memory of uri property object.
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy ( &uriObject);
