About S60 Platform: Multiple Threads Example v1.1
--------------------
The Thread Example is an example program that demonstrates thread usage and 
synchronization. The example is based on the document Symbian OS: Threads Programming. 

Prerequisites
------------
- Active Objects
- Multitasking
- Symbian OS key concepts

Running the Thread Example
----------------------
Open the options menu. Select "Start threads."
Now you should see three animations running. 
Open the options menu again and start killing threads.
After killing a thread, the thread should reactivate in a 
few seconds, that is, the animation should reappear.

All threads are counting while they are running.
Thread2 and thread3 are synchronized and they increment the same
TInt counter. Thread1 increments a separate counter by itself,
thus no synchronization is required. Threads print the value
of the counter on the screen when they have been killed.
The user can be sure that the thread is running if the value
of the counter is bigger than zero. The counter of Thread1 is reset
when thread1 is killed. The counter of Thread2 & thread3 is reset
when thread2 or thread3 has been killed.

Installation instructions
-----------------------
-----------------------

DEVICE
------------------
S60 2nd Edition SDKs:
    Go to /ThreadExample/group
    bldmake bldfiles
    abld build armi urel
    Go to /ThreadExample/sis
    makesis Series60_v2x_thread.pkg
    Install the .sis file to your device

S60 3rd Edition SDK:
    Go to /ThreadExample/group
    bldmake bldfiles
    abld build [armv5 | gcce] urel
    go to /ThreadExample/sis
    makesis [Series60_v30_thread_armv5.pkg | Series60_v30_thread_gcce.pkg]
    
    Sign the SIS package with the signsis utility
    - See the SDK Help for information about self-signed .sis packages, or
    www.symbiansigned.com for information about Developer Certificates.
    
    install the .sis file to your device


EMULATOR
------------------
WINS:
    Go to /ThreadExample/group
    bldmake bldfiles
    abld build wins udeb
    Start the emulator
    
    Note! Visual Studio .NET IDE does not compile the .mbm file. Use the abld 
    build from the command line.

WINSCW:
    Go to /ThreadExample/group
    bldmake bldfiles
    abld build winscw udeb
    Start the emulator

    It is possible to create a project for CodeWarrior IDE by running the following command:
    abld makefile cw_ide
    
    In addition, it is possible to create a project from CodeWarrior IDE:
    Open CodeWarrior IDE
    Select File -> Import from .mmp file
    Browse to /ThreadExample/group folder and select [Thread_s60_3rd_ed.mmp | Thread_s60_2nd_ed.mmp]
    Select Project -> Make
    Select Project -> Run
    
    After successful build, the application can be found and started from
    Applications > Installed > Thread


Known Issues
-------------
    NOTE concerning 3rd Edition: When creating a project from the .mmp file, the .mbm building tool is not invoked.
    Use the abld build from command line once to get the necessary .mbm file.


Notes on porting to S60 3rd Edition
-----------------------------------
A new .mmp file (Thread_s60_3rd_ed.mmp)  + Thread_reg.rss + .pkg files for 
3rd Edition (both for armv5 and gcce) created. [The .mmp and .pkg files for 2nd Edition also renamed for clarity.]

icons_aif.mk and thread_loc.rss created.
EKA2 definition (for selecting the right .mmp) into the bld.inf file added.

Changes to the .mmp file:
	Target changed from .app to .exe.
	Resource definitions changed.	
	VendorID 0x0 added.
	ReadUserData capability added.

Changes to the source code:
	thread.cpp: 
		E32Main function added (application started from eikstart.h) + conditional compiling
		macros to support both S60 3rd Edition and previous platforms.

	richtexteditorrte.cpp:
		Method SetContainerWindowL(aView) (derived from CCoeControl) added into the 2nd phase constructor.
	
	threadappui: 
		BaseConstructL(EAknEnableSkin) added into the 2nd phase constructor to ensure skin support.

	desctructors in various source files:
		Nulling/zeroing of deleted objects removed.

Compatibility
-------------
(S60 1st Edition)
S60 2nd Edition
S60 3rd Edition

Tested with Nokia 6600, Nokia 6630, and Nokia E60.

Version history
---------------
1.0	Original example
1.1	Support for S60 3rd Edition added
