    Detailed Description

    Maintains a list of documents and all of the potentially shared resources used by documents.

    This includes the application DLLs. The class also supplies utility functions that provide the basic structure for persisted document files.

    The class deals with the loading of application DLLs and manages the creation and destruction of application (CApaApplication) objects and document (CApaDocument) objects.

    The class is derived from by the UI framework and further derivation by the UI application is not necessary unless it needs to add extra utility functions for the use of applications.

    Constructor & Destructor Documentation

    CApaProcess ( )

    IMPORT_CCApaProcess()[protected]

    Constructor for CApaProcess

    CApaProcess ( const RFs & )

    IMPORT_CCApaProcess(const RFs &aFs)[protected]

    Constructs the application process object with the specified file session handle.

    Derived classes must define and implement a constructor through which the file session handle can be specified. A typical implementation calls this constructor through a constructor initialization list.

    This constructor is used by the UI framework.

    Deprecated

    ParameterDescription
    aFsHandle to a file server session

    ~CApaProcess ( )

    IMPORT_C~CApaProcess()

    Frees resources prior to destruction.

    Documents must be saved before the application process is deleted, otherwise data may be lost.

    In debug mode, the destructor raises an APPARC 6 panic if documents still exist, and an APPARC 5 panic if applications still exist.

    Member Function Documentation

    AddNewDocumentL ( TApaApplicationFactory )

    IMPORT_C CApaDocument *AddNewDocumentL(TApaApplicationFactoryaApplicationFactory)

    Creates and adds a new document using the specified application factory.

    The document may be a main document or an embedded document.

    Any document created with this function must be destroyed using DestroyDocument().

    See also: CApaProcess::DestroyDocument() CApaApplication

    ParameterDescription
    aApplicationFactoryShould be created implicitly by passing a pointer to a factory function, an ECOM plugin UID, or a CImplementationInformation reference.

    Returns: A pointer to the new document.

    CApaProcess_Reserved1 ( )

    IMPORT_C voidCApaProcess_Reserved1()[protected, virtual]

    Reserved for future use

    CApaProcess_Reserved2 ( )

    IMPORT_C voidCApaProcess_Reserved2()[protected, virtual]

    Reserved for future use

    ConstructL ( )

    IMPORT_C voidConstructL()[protected]

    Completes construction of the application process object.

    Implementers of derived classes must call this function as part of the second stage construction of an object. Typically, derived classes implement their own NewL() function and call ConstructL() as part of that implementation.

    ConstructL ( TProcessId )

    IMPORT_C voidConstructL(TProcessIdaParentProcessId)[protected]

    Completes construction of the application process object, passing in a Parent Process Identifier.

    Implementers of derived classes must call this function as part of the second stage construction of an object. Typically, derived classes implement their own NewL() function and call ConstructL() as part of that implementation.

    ParameterDescription
    aParentProcessIdId of the parent process. This process will terminate when the parent does.

    DestroyDocument ( CApaDocument * )

    IMPORT_C voidDestroyDocument(CApaDocument *aDoc)

    Destroys the specified document.

    All references to the document are removed, and associated resources are freed. Specifically, the function deletes any associated application and unloads the application DLL, provided that no other documents of that application type are still open.

    All document objects created through CApaProcess must be deleted using this function.

    See also: CApaApplication CApaProcess

    The created document can be merged into or embedded in another document.

    Any document created with this function must be destroyed using DestroyDocument().

    See also: TFileMode CApaProcess::DestroyDocument()

    ParameterDescription
    aStoreOn return, this contains a pointer to the store object created during the restore.
    aStreamDicOn return, this contains a pointer to the stream dictionary object created during the restore.

    IMPORT_C TApaAppIdentifierReadAppIdentifierL(const CStreamStore &aStore,
    const CStreamDictionary &aStreamDic
    )[static]

    Reads the application identifier from its stream in the specified store and returns it.

    The location of the stream is found in the specified stream dictionary.

    ParameterDescription
    aStoreThe store from which the application identifier should be read.
    aStreamDicThe stream dictionary containing the stream ID of the application identifier stream. The stream dictionary can be found in the root stream of the store.

    const TDesC &aDocFullFileName,
    TUintaFileMode
    )[static]

    Reads the stream dictionary contained as the root stream in the specified document file.

    The function constructs, and returns a pointer to the stream dictionary object and puts the pointer to the stream dictionary object onto the cleanup stack. It also returns a pointer to the created file store object through an argument reference.

    The file must be a valid document file; otherwise the function leaves with one of the system-wide error codes.

    See also: TFileMode

    IMPORT_C voidWriteAppIdentifierL(CStreamStore &aStore,
    CStreamDictionary &aStreamDic,
    const TApaAppIdentifier &aAppId
    )[static]

    Writes the application identifier to a new stream in the specified store and records the location of this stream in the specified stream dictionary.

    ParameterDescription
    aStoreThe store to which the application identifier should be written.
    aStreamDicThe stream dictionary.
    aAppIdThe application identifier to be externalised to a stream.

    WriteRootStreamL ( CPersistentStore &, CStreamDictionary &, const CApaApplication & )

    IMPORT_C voidWriteRootStreamL(CPersistentStore &aStore,
    CStreamDictionary &aStreamDic,
    const CApaApplication &aApp
    )[static]

    Writes the application identifier (derived from the application object CApaApplication) followed by the stream dictionary to the store and makes the stream dictionary the root stream of the store.

    Typically, the function is called by the application when it implements a file create or file save type operation. It is called after all model and UI data has been persisted. The IDs of the streams containing the model and UI data should have been lodged in the stream dictionary.

    In effect, the function finishes off the file save or file create type operation, leaving the file containing the store in a valid state with the standard interface.

    ParameterDescription
    aStoreThe store to which the root stream is to be written. Before calling this function, a reference to the store must be saved by putting a pointer onto the cleanup stack or by making it member data of a class. This ensures that it is not orphaned in the event of this function leaving.
    aStreamDicThe stream dictionary containing the locations and associated UIDs of other streams in the store.
    aAppThe application used to create the main document in the file being written. The application identifier to be written is constructed from this application object.

    WriteRootStreamL ( CPersistentStore &, CStreamDictionary &, const TApaAppIdentifier & )

    IMPORT_C voidWriteRootStreamL(CPersistentStore &aStore,
    CStreamDictionary &aStreamDic,
    const TApaAppIdentifier &aAppId
    )[static]

    Writes the application identifier followed by the stream dictionary to the store and makes the stream dictionary the root stream of the store.

    Typically, the function is called by the application when it implements a file create or file save type operation. It is called after all model and UI data has been persisted. The IDs of the streams containing the model and UI data should have been lodged in the stream dictionary.

    In effect, the function finishes off the file save or file create type operation, leaving the file containing the store in a valid state with the standard interface.

    ParameterDescription
    aStoreThe store to which the root stream is to be written. Before calling this function, a reference to the store must be saved by putting a pointer onto the cleanup stack or by making it member data of a class. This ensures that it is not orphaned in the event of this function leaving.
    aStreamDicThe stream dictionary containing the locations and associated UIDs of other streams in the store.
    aAppIdThe application identifier to be written into the application identifier stream.
