aMuleGUI on Symbian OS: is it possible???
« on: June 18, 2009, 08:11:22 PM »

Hello to everyone! :) I was wondering about the feasibility of porting aMuleGUI to Symbian OS... Could it be possible or is it simply impossible (as  I fear)? I would do some research about the subject as soon as I would have some spare time: in the meantime I hope that someone would like to give me an opinion... Thanks to everyone! :)

Hi,

According to a short research: It is possible, but it requires a complete new application specifically written for Symbian.

If you are a moderately advanced programmer and once you are familiar with the programming environment (should take quite some time) actually implementing EC for the communication with aMule shouldn't be too hard.

Still, it's a lot of work and unless you're interested in the Symbian platform it's probably not worth the effort. Consider using a mobile-optimized amuleweb-template instead.

Is there a VNC client for Symbian? That should be the easiest solution.  ;)

Given my experience (limited) of Symbian development I wouldn't even think of it. Can you think of platform without decent string manipulation lib?!
