Landmark Receiver and Landmark Sender

By arthur

Using the landmarks API that was posted here a few days ago, two applications were developed: the landmark receiver and the landmark sender. These applications are simple and the point of the is to send a message showing where you are to another person and the message will be processed and converted on a landmark that can be shown on “Nokia Maps”.

So, from the other explanation, the landmark sender get your position using gps(simulated, integrated, network, assisted or bluetooth) and generate a SMS in a special format with the information of your position and a description that you’re going to pass, after that it sends the SMS to the number that you’re going to pass to.

The landmark receiver, is there just to process the message that the landmark sender will send, the program runs in background and for every message that comes the program processes and check if it is in the correct format, after checking, if it is in that format so the program will make use of the landmarks API and will generate, export and open the landmark, so the user can see here the other people is.

Well, these are Landmark Sender and Landmark Receiver, enjoy it!

P.S.: On landmark sender just bluetooth and netowrk gps is not working, if you can, please contribute.

P.S.2: The programs are adapted to Brazilian system of telephony so if you wnat to adapt to yours change the source code.

P.S.3: This application use appswitch module, so, if you want to use it you will have to instal it first.

This is a beta version so, try to help us and change the source codes if there are any problems.
