try to draw the border in Draw() method, like
void CtestContainer:raw(const TRect& aRect) const
{
CWindowGc& gc = SystemGc();
gc.SetPenStyle(CGraphicsContext::ENullPen);
gc.SetBrushColor(KRgbWhite);
gc.SetBrushStyle(CGraphicsContext::ESolidBrush );
gc.DrawRect(aRect);

TGulBorder border;

gc.SetPenStyle(CGraphicsContext::ESolidPen);
gc.SetPenColor(KRgbBlack);
// gc.SetBrushColor(KRgbWhite);
// gc.SetBrushStyle(CGraphicsContext::ENullBrush );
border.Draw(gc,TRect(10, 15, 166, 35));
}


the answer maybe too late, just for those who have the same question.

I'm afraid it doesnt work, just draw its rect around the control when you draw the view

[cleanup]

iCEikEdwin = new (ELeave) CEikEdwin(TGulBorder::ESingleGray);

I used this. And it works fine for me.

Yes, already tried all that in the constructor and by a call to SetBorder() and behold it didnt work. The control is constructed but no border !!!What SDK are you using I'm on S60 SDK v1.2 here

Wierd eh ?

NavaronSoftware:
TGulBorder:raw () needs _enclosing_ rectangle, so this works correctly:

CWindowGc& gc = SystemGc();
TRect rect (iEdwin->Rect());
rect.Grow(1,1);
TGulBorder border(iEdwin->Border());
border.SetType(TGulBorder::ESingleBlack);
border.Draw (gc, rect);
