Launch SMSEditor.exe

[lancemachine]

Hi,
My code is:
RProcess process;
TUidType uidtype(KNullUid);
TInt eeee = process.Create(_L("SmsEditor"), _L("teststring"), EOwnerProcess);
process.Resume();
process.Close();
return;

the goal is to start the SMSEditor and pass the message needs to be sent to him
but when I excute the code, it crashes. I think it is because of that the format of the text (the 2nd para of Create) is incorrect. Can anybody tell me what is the right format of it? Thank you very much!

If you download "S60 Platform: Application Views" from FN main site (www.forum.nokia.com, Documentation / Symbian C++ on the left, UI), you will get an idea how to launch the SMS editor with pre-defined content (ironically it is not done with views, but the example is there).

thx
the SmsEditor is started by
const TUid KMessagingUid = { 0x100058C5 }; // Application Uid
const TUid KInboxViewUid = { 1 }; // View Uid of the external application
AppUi()->ActivateViewL(TVwsViewId(KMessagingUid, KInboxViewUid));

but my problem is I want to start the SmsEditor AND pass some data to it, e.g. the receiver` s phone number, and / or the message content

Use RSendAs and RSendAsMessage API for this purpose. You can set recipient number through AddRecipientL and message content through SetBodyTextL.

Finally call LaunchEditorAndCloseL to open message editor. It will contain your set phone number and message body.

Are you sure about that you have checked that document. If I open it, 3.3.2. says

It is not possible to open a window to write a message using ActivateViewL. However, it is possible to accomplish this by using the CSendAppUi class. This is a frequently asked question, which is why it is presented here.
[and a code snippet is "here"]

Hi, kiran10182,
It works, with a warning of 'Memory Full' in emulator, though

Hi, wizard,
Sorry, I didnt check the pdf, I just took a look at the code
I use 3.0 SDK. there is no class of CSendAppUi, however there is CSendUi, everything works fine when I tried the example in the pdf

Thank you both, it` s very convenient to use the already-written SmsEditor to send message, instead of writing our own
