While working on iphone security architecture, i came to know that i can run applications from other applications in iphone. referring to the following url http://iphonedevelopertips.com/cocoa/launching-other-apps-within-an-iphone-application.html
for example, i can put a link in a website with following hyperlink skype:// will result skype to run and call at particular number. Now i have few concerns here.
- is there a shell running in background in iphone, so that it allows other application to run basic app commands.
- if the above statement is true then how can i enable or run commands directly into iphone shell?
- if above statements are false, then could you please explain how these commands are being executed?
- is this part of iPhone SDK? or this funcationality is iPhone OS
