Hello friends,

I have created menu in rss as :
/*********************************/
// Praveen Added on 15/4/08

// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// r_myshareview_menubar
// My Share View menubar
//
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
RESOURCE MENU_BAR r_myshareview_menubar
{
titles =
{
MENU_TITLE { menu_pane = r_myshareview_menu; }
};
}


// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
// r_myshareview_menu
// Menu for "Options"
//
// -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
//
RESOURCE MENU_PANE r_myshareview_menu
{
items =
{
// added the new Options menu command here
MENU_ITEM
{
command = EmyShareView_View;
txt = qtn_EmyShareView_view;
},
MENU_ITEM
{
command = EmyShareView_Edit;
txt = qtn_EmyShareView_Edit;
},
// Praveen added my Status menu item 8/04/08

MENU_ITEM
{
command = EmyShareView_My_Share_Buddies;
txt = qtn_myShareView_My_Share_Buddies;
}

};
}
//------------------- Menu ForMy Share View------------------------------
//

// Praveen End 15/4/08
// --
/********************************/

and i am calling it in constructor as below:

void CMyShareView::ConstructL(CClient *aConnection,TInt aResourceId)
{
//this->ConstructL(R_MYSHAREVIEW_MENU);
//CreateMenuBarL(R_MYSHAREVIEW_MENU);
PrepareLC(aResourceId);
CAknDialog::ConstructL(R_MYSHAREVIEW_MENU);
}

But still i am not able to see the menu bar at run time.

Please help.
Regards,
Praveen.

MENU_BAR resources must link to menubar item on AVKON_VIEW RESOURCE. See below :

RESOURCE AVKON_VIEW r_my_view
{
menubar = r_my_view_menubar;
cba = R_AVKON_SOFTKEYS_OPTIONS_EXIT;
}

RESOURCE MENU_BAR r_my_view_menubar ...

Hello Hervin Thanks for reply .

Now I am using dialogs in my application throughout and I can not use view as multi view arcitecture can not be used as per requirment specification only dialogs .And The menu bar is displayed in application through construtL method on other dialogs . But only in this it is not viewing.
Can you give me alternate solution using dialog only or suggest the possible cause of problem.
waiting for reply ....
Thanks.

Hmmm, it's looks like impossible to do that since the RESOURCE DIALOG don't have a link to the RESOURCE MENU_BAR. Maybe you can't create a custom control which looks like a dialog.
