Battery Information Tutorial

This tutorial describes the steps to retrieve the battery information from the device.

Steps

create a new instance of [[[ERROR: [NOKX000E] Unable to find definition for key reference 'CTelephony']]]CTelephony with active objects
use [[[ERROR: [NOKX000E] Unable to find definition for key reference 'CTelephony']]]CTelephony::GetBatteryInfo() to get the battery information
the function returns the information in [[[ERROR: [NOKX000E] Unable to find definition for key reference 'CTelephony']]]CTelephony::TBatteryInfoV1 The result contains the battery charge level and the battery status.
use [[[ERROR: [NOKX000E] Unable to find definition for key reference 'CTelephony']]]CTelephony::EGetBatteryInfoCancel to cancel the asynchronous function
use [[[ERROR: [NOKX000E] Unable to find definition for key reference 'CTelephony']]]CTelephony::EBatteryInfoChange to get the notification of any changes to the battery information
pass the enumeration [[[ERROR: [NOKX000E] Unable to find definition for key reference 'CTelephony']]]CTelephony::EBatteryInfoChangeCancel to cancel the notification request.
