Hello
How to make a native python app on S60 3RD Edition ?
As do appmgr on S60 2ND edition

[makuchaku]

Hi,

I'm in a fix too... with this symbian signing thing!

This is what i've figured out till now...

I want to access contacts, which require ReadDeviceData capabilities. Simply accessing contacts cause python to crash.

If you check out https://www.symbiansigned.com/app/page/freeware , you'll find that you need to build your app & submit it for a cert through which you can get the access to such capabilities. But the problem here is... if you dont have such capabilities in the first place, how do you develop even a simplest running prototype???

It seems like a vicious circle to me!

Can anyone please throw some light on this?

Thanks,

The cert is no problem to me. i don't use Special capability i need make icon in menu to my prog !

[makuchaku]

But does py2sis works for 3rd editions?

[Santehnik]

Think no because S60 3Rd Edition have new file system model

My PKG File

&EN
#{"MyProg"},(0xF9000001),1,0,0
%{"Santehnik"}
; Unique Vendor name
:"Santehnik"
[0xF9000001], 0, 0, 0, {"Series60ProductID"}
;Files to install
"files\sys\bin\MyProg.exe" - "!:\sys\bin\MyProg_0xF9000001.exe"
"files\resource\apps\MyProg.rsc" - "!:\resource\apps\MyProg.rsc"
"files\private\10003a3f\import\apps\MyProg_reg.rsc" - "!:\private\10003a3f\import\apps\MyProg_reg.rsc"
"files\resource\apps\MyProg_aif.mif" - "!:\resource\apps\MyProg_aif.mif"
"files\private\F9000001\MyProg.py" - "!:\private\F9000001\default.py"

When i installing it to phone they says Unable Install what i do wrong ?
(UID in MyProg_0xF9000001.exe and other files i changed to F9000001)

You have to add correct Series60ProductID.
For S603rd use this:

[0x101F7961 ], 0, 0, 0, {"Series60ProductID"}

List of some UIDs is avalaible from here: http://www.newlc.com/Common-products-UIDs.html

I have downloaded py src but py2sisi don't work (says error 13 V:\src\py2sis\build)

Yes, I agree it is difficult. It would be much easier if the dev certificate supports Read/WriteDeviceData (http://discussion.forum.nokia.com/fo...ad.php?t=88999)

For now before you get the more powerful devcert, here are some ideas : You can develop your app on the emulator first, which doesn't require the Read/WriteDeviceData capability. Then get it signed in the freeware process.
Another option is to develop your app on sdk 2.0 first, then port to sdk 3.0

Don't bother with that. Here's a simpler approach.

1. Go to http://www.nbl.fi/jussi.ylanen/ensymble.html and download a suitable pre-squeezed version of Ensymble for your version of Python. Put the script in some suitable directory, e.g. ~/bin (if using a Unix-like system).

2a. On Unix-like systems (Linux, OS X), make the downloaded script runnable:

$ chmod +x ensymble_python2.x-0.11.py

2b. On Windows, download the Stunnel OpenSSL binaries (openssl.zip) and extract them somewhere, e.g. C:\OpenSSL\bin. Then add that directory to your command search path: My Computer->Properties->Advanced->Environment Variables->System Variables->Path. Only newly opened Command Prompt windows will use the new path!

3a. On Unix-like systems, simply run the Ensymble script (type everything on one line):

$ ensymble_python2.x-0.11.py py2sis --uid=0xfxxxxxxx --icon=myicon.svg
--appname="MyApp" --shortcaption="My App." --caption="My Application"
--version=1.2.3 --verbose myapp.py

3b. On Windows, run the Ensymble script using a Python interpreter (type everything on one line):

> python ensymble_python2.x-0.11.py py2sis --uid=0xfxxxxxxx
--icon=myicon.svg --appname="MyApp"  --shortcaption="My App."
--caption="My Application" --version=1.2.3 --verbose myapp.py

If your application needs network connectivity or other special capabilities, there is the --caps option. For short help on options, type:

ensymble_python2.x-0.11.py py2sis -h

Hope this helps!

OK. What operating system you are using: Linux/OS X/Windows/other?

What is the exact command line you type before getting the error message?

By default, Ensymble uses a certificate with no pass phrase. The --passphrase option should only be used when you need to use your own certificate and that certificate has a pass phrase.

i'm using python 2.5 on Win XP Pro system
running with the following commandline:

E:\symbian9\python>ensymble.py py2sis --uid=0xf7775555 --appname="dxpl" --shortcaption="dxpl" --caption="dxpl" --version=1.0.0 --verbose dxplb.py

where dxplb.py is my python s60 script

Hmm. There's nothing wrong with the command line. In fact, I was able to make a working SIS package on a Windows XP system by creating a dummy "dxplb.py" file.

So, the problem must be in running the OpenSSL binary. Ensymble searches the "openssl.exe" command from directories on PATH and uses the first one it finds. Maybe there's something wrong with your installation of OpenSSL? Try the following command and copy the result here (mine says "OpenSSL 0.9.7f 22 Mar 2005"):

openssl version

Also, make sure you're using Ensymble version 0.11. The 0.10 version does not support Windows at all.
