JavaScript Messaging Service API

The Messaging Service API is supported since WRT 1.1.

The Messaging Service API allows widgets to send, retrieve, and manage messages using the Messaging Center of a device. The API is integrated into WRT through the device object.

For an overview of the service and the API, see section Accessing messages and using messaging services.

Using the Messaging Service API

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

var so = device.getServiceObject("Service.Messaging", "IMessaging");

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

IMessaging.GetList()
IMessaging.Send()
IMessaging.RegisterNotification()
IMessaging.CancelNotification()
IMessaging.ChangeStatus()
IMessaging.Delete()
IMessaging.Cancel()

Emulator support

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