Launch App within same package

Hi All,

I have two service apps. I have added one app to another by specifying project reference in Properties > Project References.

I want to send launch request from one app to another.

It fails when both are in same package and works fine when I install both service app independently.

So how to launch services when they are packaged in single package ?

Thank you.

Hi,

I don’t think that it’s good idea to pack 2 service apps in the single package without UI Web or Native apps. Usually, you should pack UI app with 1 or more service apps. Do you have no UI app?

BTW, how do you send the launch request?

Hi Alex,

I am sending launch request by following way. I have added necessory privileges too.

app_control_h app_control;

app_control_create(&app_control);
app_control_set_operation(app_control, APP_CONTROL_OPERATION_DEFAULT);
app_control_set_app_id(app_control, app_id.c_str()); //

if (app_control_send_launch_request(app_control, NULL, NULL) == APP_CONTROL_ERROR_NONE)
{
awlog_information("Succeeded to launch %s.",app_id.c_str());
}
else

{
awlog_error("Failed to launch %s.",app_id.c_str());
}

Hi,
Looks like it is not possible in Tizen to pack 2 service apps (one into another). I have added reference and have created package (Build Package->TPK). No appropriate changes in 'tizen-manifest' and inside 'bin' folder inside 'tpk'.
It is possible to pack service into UI apps only (Web or Native).
Alexey.
