mbm compiler problem

[metebalci]

Hi,

I have created a mbm definition file and added 2 bmp files with 24bit color depth, no color scaling, no mask bitmap.

Compilation gives the following output and error:

'Building file: ../aif/mov.mbmdef'
'Invoking: MBM Compiler'
perl -S epocmbmdef.pl -p"C:\projects\carbide\App\" -hC:\Symbian\8.0a\S60_2nd_FP2_CW\EPOC32\include\mov.mbg -o"C:/Symbian/8.0a/S60_2nd_FP2_CW/EPOC32/DATA/Z/system/apps/App/mov.mbm" ../aif/mov.mbmdef

BMCONV version 112.

What does your mbm definition file contain?

[metebalci]

like that:

24|aif/mov0000.bmp
24|aif/mov0001.bmp

I created it with the editor, not by myself.

I think it's because you are trying to create 24bit grayscale icons. Try to enable color scale or switch to 8bit, then your mbm should compile without errors.

Best regards,
Andreas

OK. I missed that.

Thank you.
