Tizen apps can only be developed by The Samsung Smart Signage SDK.
In order to run a Native Application from a Server URL you should follow these steps:
Create project folder (such as tizen) to a webserver and upload any .wgt test application to a
webserver folder. Example URL would be: http://IP:Port/tizen/
Structured in Tomcat Sever
Prepare the configuration fileand upload it to a webserver. Example: location of this file would be at following path: http://IP:Port/tizen/ sssp_config.xml
On the LFD now change the Server URL to be the path that contains your sssp_config.xml file. Example URL would be: http://IP:Port/tizen/
In order to run a USB Application from a Server URL you should follow these steps:
Connect your PC and LFD to the same network. (same network means same router)
Set “Developer Mode” in the LFD and install application on SSSP device.
For more information see, Remote Web Inspector
Users must save packaged wgt app (such as HelloTizen.wgt) and mandatory configuration file ‘sssp_config.xml’ inside same folder.
Each time SSSP is starting it will perform a check for the existence of sssp_config.xml at the URL you provided.
If it exists on the Server URL, the system will perform different processes based on the differences between the online copy and local copy of sssp_config.xml.
If the version and name both are the same, SSSP will launch the app from the internal memory.
If the name is same but the version is different:
Launcher will show Updating banner
Downloads updated application package and copy of new sssp_config.xml
Launch the installed application
If name is different:
Launcher will show Downloading banner
Downloads new application package and remove old application if exist in memory.
Install new application and Launch
The configuration file sssp_config.xml contains very important information about the web app.
As soon as user launch application from the URL Launcher, LFD Device looks for name, version and size information (size of the HelloTizen.wgt on disk) as shown below:
ver is the version of your application.
Based on increment, new version of .wgt application will install on LFD.
size is how large your application’s wgt package is in kilobytes.
"There is not enough storage space to download the URL launcher" error pop up will display on LFD, If free space is not available for application in LFD storage.
There might be chances to come black screen on LFD, if size attribute is not used in sssp_config.xml file and required free space is not available on storage memory.
widgetname is the filename of your application wgt package not including the .wgt extension.
For example the wgt file will be HelloTizen.wgt and the widgetname will be HelloTizen.
webtype is the optional parameter of sssp_config.xml file, to define the platform information.
