Creating a new application

Every iviLink applicatin uses iviLink Services. Every service provides functinality of one or more Profile APIs

Service creation:

1. Create C++ class for service that inherits CGenericService class (from /framework/libraries/ServicesLib/src/include/CGenericService.hpp) Exmaple is here: /framework/libraries/ServicesLib/src/include/CClimateService.hpp

2. Add service to service manager:

   • add to framework/libraries/ServicesLib/src/source/CServiceManager.cpp like in example
   • add to Service Manager XML-database (exmaple: framework/libraries/ServicesLib/src/xml)

3. Register application in Application Manager:

   • include CAppManConnectController to communicate with Application Manager (from framework/libraries/AppMan/App/include/CAppManConnectController.hpp)
   • use CAppManConnectController::instance()->applicationManager()->initApplication(supportedServices) to registed app in Application Manager
   • Add application to Application Manager database: src/samples/linux/AppManDatabase.xml Example of using Applicaton Manager is constructor of CStateUpdater class (from src/samples/linux/QTClient/CStateUpdater.cpp)

Example of iviLink application is here: src/samples/linux/QTClient
