Application APIs

The Application class, in the com.sybase.mobile Java package, manages mobile application registrations, connections and context.

• getInstance
  Retrieves the Application instance for the current mobile application.
• setApplicationIdentifier
  Sets the identifier for the current application.
• getRegistrationStatus
  Retrieves the current status of the mobile application registration.
• registerApplication
  Creates the registration for this application and starts the connection.
• setApplicationCallback
  Sets the callback for the current application. It is optional, but recommended, to register a callback so the application can respond to changes in connection status, registration status, and application settings.
• getApplicationContext
  Returns the Android application context which allows access to application-specific resources and classes.
• setApplicationContext
  Sets the Android application context, which is required before calling thestartConnection, registerApplication or unregisterApplication methods. This method must be called in an user interface thread, not a background thread.
• startConnection
  Starts the connection for this application. This method is equivalent to calling startConnection(0), but is a non-blocking call which returns immediately. Use getConnectionStatus or the ApplicationCallback to retrieve the connection status.
• startConnection (int timeout)
  Starts the connection for this application. If the connection was previously started, then this operation has no effect. You must set the appropriate connectionProperties before calling this operation.
• getConnectionStatus
  Return current status of the mobile application connection.
