Manipulating some networking settings from within a Qt application

[thomasvansundert]

Hi all,
I'm trying to figure out whether I can change some basic settings from within my application.

My questions are:

• can I disable all roaming data use on the device
• Can I add new access points

If so: what classes can I use? I can't seem to find anything in the documentation...

thanks,
Thomas

I assume you are targeting symbian phones?

[thomasvansundert]

Yes, indeed,
sorry if that wasn't clear...

You are going to need device specific API for that. Qt does not, AFAIK, support that, but do check out a recent version of Qt Mobility. Perhaps features were added there for this that I did not spot yet.

And I'm assuming this is not the right forum to ask questions about Qt Mobility?

thanks
Thomas

No, asking about QtMobility is fine :-)

I can ask, but no one knows the answer?

Hi Thomas,

You might need to use Symbian C++ to "create new access point":http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/Create_new_internet_access_point There is also an example how to "set default access point using Qt Mobitily APIs here...":http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/How_to_set_default_access_point_using_Qt_Mobility_APIs
