: ERROR: Dll 'SIMPLESERVER.DLL' has
: initialised data.

On the Symbian platform no DLL may contain writeable static data, whether initialised or uninitialised. You must eliminate all writeable static from your DLL in order to avoid this error.

See SDK Help "Writeable static data in DLLs" for more information.

Hi,
You need to remove all your writable static data from your code.
It's easy to locate where is the writable static data, you may have a look in the .map file generated after your compilation, and afterward you need to have a look on ".bss" and ".data" segments.
