I need way to run a symbian application into the background

How may I run an application (designed by me) on my Nokia S60 #rd edition phone. Could so开发者_运维百科meone direct me or if possible then explain here.

I need my application to run in background all the time without crashing and also it should invoke itself even after a restart - would that be possible?

Thanks.

If your application doesn't need GUI, create a console application. Check out this basic example. Also consider this when designing your application: GUI vs Console.

As for the autostart feature, it's sure possible. Check out this tutorial.

Good luck!

Also look up RProcess. You could even have a second safety net process that is notified using RProcess::Logon() if the first one dies. The first could also be the safety net for the second :)
