The World Server provides the same kind of notification mechanism as
the Alarm Server.
It is also an asynchronous service provider. An active object is used to receive
events from the World Server. The server provides notifications of changes
to the home city, default country, system time, and database files. The client-side
API for the server is RWorldServer
.
The following functions are used to request and cancel notifications:
void NotifyOnChange(TRequestStatus& aStatus); void NotifyOnChangeCancel();
The notification functionality is similar to the Alarm Server. The notification does not contain information about the type of change. Usage of the World Server API has been demonstrated in S60 Platform: World Server Example.
