Can't change application UI orientation

[SamoylovBoris]

Hi all. I need help. My view-based application uses CAknAppUiBase::SetOrientationL for switching application UI to landscape and back to portrait mode during work. But if I write UI initilaization like this:
void CMyAppUi::ConstructL()
{
BaseConstructL( EAknEnableSkin );
SetOrientationL( EAppUiOrientationLandscape ); // KERN-EXEC 3 error
// ....
}
method SetOrientationL causes KERN-EXEC 3 error. If I change orientation later (while CAknView activation for example) error doesn't happen, but on N73 (S60 3rd ed) softkeys buttons drawn as two white rectangles.
If I initialize application UI like this:
BaseConstructL( EAknEnableSkin | EAppOrientationLandscape );
SetOrientationL( EAppUiOrientationLandscape ) works fine, but I can't change orientation to portrait.
What is wrong?

No problem at least with E61, E70 and N80.
I didn't use views though, but container, MyAppUi was derived from CAknAppUi.

void CMyAppUi::ConstructL()
{
    BaseConstructL(EAknEnableSkin);

    SetOrientationL(EAppUiOrientationLandscape);
// ...
}

Thank you for reply. I tested application on N80 and N93. It works fine. Error occurs on N73.

It was my error. I wrote

void CBCRAppUi::HandleResourceChangeL( TInt type )
{
	CEikAppUi::HandleResourceChangeL( type );
	// ...
}

instead

void CBCRAppUi::HandleResourceChangeL( TInt type )
{
	CAknViewAppUi::HandleResourceChangeL( type );
	// ...
}

Hi,

I am trying to change the orientation of my app in the emulator but it doesn't work. Does the emulator support this feature?

Thanks in advance.

No, emulator does not
