* By now we can only build NSPR as static library and then link the .lib(around 80KB) into every single test case. So the final .sisx file with over 100 test case executables is over 7MB. The reason is that [http://www3.symbian.com/faq.nsf/AllByDate/B8542F039C193CCC802573DA0011DFA7 the GCCE compiler comes with S60 SDK can not produce correct DLL if Writable Static Data is used]. Although there is a hope we could use a more recent GCCE release from [http://www.codesourcery.com CodeSourcery], yet there are other problems. So further investigation and workaround have to be carried out. | * By now we can only build NSPR as static library and then link the .lib(around 80KB) into every single test case.

With help of this tool, you will manipulates files on the testing device quite conveniently. | ||

Also an IAP(Internet Access Point) manual selection is needed. So my intension of putting this test case as the first one is to leave you doing your other business without staring at the testing device. | ||
