JavaScript AppManager Service API

The AppManager Service API is supported since WRT 1.1.

The AppManager Service API allows widgets to access and launch applications on a mobile device. The API is integrated with WRT through the device object.

For an overview of the service and the API, see section Accessing and launching installed applications.

Using the AppManager Service API

To use the AppManager Service API, your widget must first create a service object for it using the device.getServiceObject() method. Use Service.AppManager to identify the service provider and IAppManager to identify the supported interface:

var so = device.getServiceObject("Service.AppManager", "IAppManager");

This service object can then be used to access the services provided by the API:

Emulator support

The S60 5th Edition SDK emulator provides full support for the AppManager Service API.
