Hi All,
I'm new to NewLC. I'm trying to develop an application where I want to capture every network data to analyze it. But I'm not getting any APIs in S60 3rd Edition SDK FP2 to capture the network data. Is anyone done this before ? Plz help me out... If u have any source code or related documents or websites plz let me know. Is it possible to capture it by using RSocket API ? I felt no. Plz help me out. Waiting for ur replies.

Thanking You All !

Vinod

Re: Capturing Network Packet

Sorry this isn't much help, but I know people who have done this and they needed a full source SDK from Symbian to implement it and a lot of agreements from phone manufacturers to get it signed. The only way they got the SDK is because they worked for a company that is a Symbian partner Sad

Re: Capturing Network Packet

Well, the code is a project that the company sells (for a pretty hefty fee I think) so source code isn't really possible.

There may be other ways to do it, but I doubt any of them will avoid needing manufacturer capabilities, as all of the low level network access is done under those capabilities in Symbian 9.x

Re: Capturing Network Packet

Use Ethereal or wireshark to capture Network data on the Comp while running the app on emulator. I have been doing the same for my projects for somewhile now

Re: Capturing Network Packet

Hi Vinod,

Y don't you write the data that is being received from the server into a file . you can use the RFile & RFs API to do this. But this is with respect to only your Application.

You however cant snoop on what other applications are getting over the network if that is what your objective is or may be the API is closed and not available to the developers.
