Remarks:

Since Tizen 2.4, if all added paths with this key are under the caller application's data path which can be obtained by the calling app_get_data_path() function, those will be shared to the callee application. Framework will grant a temporary permission to the callee application for those files and revoke it when the callee application is terminated. Paths should be regular files. The callee application can just read them. Note that the callee application doesn't have read permission of the directory that is obtained by the caller's app_get_data_path(), you should open the file path with the read only mode directly. For example, access() call to the file path will return error because access() needs the read permission of the directory. The callee application can call open() with the O_RDONLY mode for the passed file path, because framework grants the read permission to the passed file path.

Since :

2.3

Remarks:

The function is not allowed to send reply APP_CONTROL_RESULT_APP_STARTED as result which is reserved for platform developers.

See also:

app_control_send_launch_request()

Sends the launch request.

The operation is mandatory information for the launch request.
If the operation is not specified, APP_CONTROL_OPERATION_DEFAULT is used by default. If the operation is APP_CONTROL_OPERATION_DEFAULT, the application ID is mandatory to explicitly launch the application.

Since :

2.3

Privilege Level:

public

Privilege:

Remarks:

The function returns APP_CONTROL_ERROR_LAUNCH_REJECTED if the operation value is APP_CONTROL_OPERATION_LAUNCH_ON_EVENT which is only for handling the event from the platform or other application, refer to the CAPI_EVENT_MODULE module.

Since Tizen 2.4, the launch request of the service application over out of packages is restricted by the platform. Also, implicit launch requests are NOT delivered to service applications since 2.4. To launch a service application, an explicit launch request with application ID given by the app_control_set_app_id() must be sent.

Parameters:

[in]	app_control	The app_control handle
[in]	callback	The callback function to be called when the reply is delivered
[in]	user_data	The user data to be passed to the callback function

Returns:

0 on success, otherwise a negative error value

Return values:

APP_CONTROL_ERROR_NONE	Successful
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER	Invalid parameter
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY	Out of memory
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_APP_NOT_FOUND	The application to run the given launch request is not found
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_LAUNCH_REJECTED	The application cannot be launched in current context
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_LAUNCH_FAILED	Failed to launch the application
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_TIMED_OUT	Failed due to timeout. The application that handles app_control may be busy
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_PERMISSION_DENIED	Permission denied

Postcondition:

If the launch request is sent for the result, the result will come back through the app_control_reply_cb() from the callee application. Additional replies may be delivered on the app_control_enable_app_started_result_event() called.

See also:

app_control_reply_to_launch_request()

app_control_reply_cb()

app_control_enable_app_started_result_event()

Sends the launch request asynchronously.

The operation is mandatory information for the launch request.
If the operation is not specified, APP_CONTROL_OPERATION_DEFAULT is used by default. If the operation is APP_CONTROL_OPERATION_DEFAULT, the application ID is mandatory to explicitly launch the application.

After the callee application is initialized or the launch request is delivered to the running application successfully, the result callback function will be invoked.

app_control_reply_cb()

app_control_enable_app_started_result_event()

Sends the terminate request to the application that is launched by app_control. This API is only effective for some applications that are provided by default for handling platform default app_controls. You are not allowed to terminate other general applications using this API.

Since :

2.3

Remarks:

Since Tizen 2.4, this API can be used to terminate sub-applications which were launched as group mode by the caller application. Once callee application is being terminated by this API, other applications which were launched by the callee application as a group mode will be terminated as well.

Parameters:

[in]

app_control

The app_control handle

Returns:

0 on success, otherwise a negative error value

Return values:

APP_CONTROL_ERROR_NONE	Successful
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER	Invalid parameter
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_PERMISSION_DENIED	Permission denied

See also:

app_control_send_launch_request()

app_control_set_launch_mode()

Sets the ID of the application to explicitly launch.

Since :

2.3

Parameters:

[in]	app_control	The app_control handle
[in]	app_id	The ID of the application to explicitly launch (if the app_id is NULL, it clears the previous value)

Returns:

0 on success, otherwise a negative error value

Return values:

APP_CONTROL_ERROR_NONE	Successful
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER	Invalid parameter
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_OUT_OF_MEMORY	Out of memory

Sets the explicit category.

Since :

2.3

Parameters:

[in]	app_control	The app_control handle
[in]	category	The explicit category (if the category is NULL, it clears the previous value)

Returns:

0 on success, otherwise a negative error value

Return values:

APP_CONTROL_ERROR_NONE	Successful
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER	Invalid parameter

See also:

app_control_get_category()

Sets the launch mode of the application.

This function allows the callee application to be launched as a group or as a single mode.

Since :

2.4

Remarks:

Although launch_mode were set as APP_CONTROL_LAUNCH_MODE_GROUP, the callee application would be launched as a single mode if the manifest file of callee application defined the launch mode as "single". This function can just set the preference of the caller application to launch an application.

Sub-applications which were launched as a group mode always have own process.

Parameters:

[in]	app_control	The app_control handle
[in]	mode	The launch mode of the application

Returns:

0 on success, otherwise a negative error value

Return values:

APP_CONTROL_ERROR_NONE	Successful
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER	Invalid parameter

app_control_set_launch_mode()

app_control_launch_mode_e

Sets the explicit MIME type of the data.

Since :

2.3

Parameters:

[in]	app_control	The app_control handle
[in]	mime	The explicit MIME type of the data this app_control is operating on (if the mime is NULL, it clears the previous value)

Returns:

0 on success, otherwise a negative error value

Return values:

APP_CONTROL_ERROR_NONE	Successful
APP_CONTROL_ERROR_INVALID_PARAMETER	Invalid parameter

See also:

app_control_get_mime()

Sets the operation to be performed.

The operation is the mandatory information for the launch request. If the operation is not specified, APP_CONTROL_OPERATION_DEFAULT is used for the launch request. If the operation is APP_CONTROL_OPERATION_DEFAULT, the package information is mandatory to explicitly launch the application.

Since :

2.3

Parameters:

[in]	app_control	The app_control handle
[in]	operation	The operation to be performed (if the operation is NULL, it clears the previous value)

Returns:

0 on success, otherwise a negative error value

Return values:

Sets the URI of the data.

Since :

2.3

Remarks:

Since Tizen 2.4, if the parameter uri is started with 'file://' and it is a regular file in this application's data path which can be obtained by calling the app_get_data_path() function, it will be shared to the callee application. Framework will grant a temporary permission to the callee application for this file and revoke it when the callee application is terminated. The callee application can just read it.

Parameters:

[in]	app_control	The app_control handle
[in]	uri	The URI of the data this app_control is operating on (if the uri is NULL, it clears the previous value)

Returns:

0 on success, otherwise a negative error value
