Hi All,
I'm a newbie to Symbian and would like to seek for your help.
My question is: Does Symbian SDKs support remote execution? What I mean is for instance say I have an application on desktop and would like to retrieve the IMEI, files and other things from the connected device. With Windows CE, there is a remote api RAPI that allows such approach. Can this be done with Symbian?
Thanks in advance for your help.

As a follow-up to this post, does anyone know of a set of command line tools that allow remote testing on a Sony Ericsson P900?
Under Windows CE M$ provide a set of 'power toys' for copying files/executables to a Pocket PC, executing them, and copying back any results. This is great for an automated, large test suite, 'tinderbox' style testing system. There are some open source tools that do the same thing: http://www.xs4all.nl/~itsme/projects/xda/tools.html
However, nothing command-line, non-commercial for Symbian seems to be available. Some older EPOC tools seem to be available (plptools,p3nfs) but these are out-of-date/incompatible or don't provide the required remote 'execute-on-device' functionality needed for automated test suites.
SymbianOSUnit provides API level in-code execution calls; but I have a series of executables that are generated (~300) that link in from library code and which test various code execution paths. I'd like to sync in with these executables and the test system which surrounds them (and which runs with the above WinCE and other platform tools on another 50 or so remote boxes/devices as part of our testing system)
TIA
