Launching Opera with a given url

[Ceratos]

Hello everybody,

i need your help again ;-)

i try to start the opera browser from a console with a given url.
Launching works fine but the url doesn't open. It starts only with the default page!

I already searched after the problem and found 3 differend ways to make it:

1. with TApaTaskList

RApaLsSession apaLsSession;
const TUid KOSSBrowserUidValue = {0x101F4DED}; 
HBufC* param = HBufC::NewLC(64);
param->Des().Copy(_L("http://www.yahoo.com/"));
TUid id(KOSSBrowserUidValue);

RWsSession ws;
TInt err = KErrNone;
err = ws.Connect();
if (err != KErrNone)
  {
    User::LeaveIfError(err);
  }

TApaTaskList taskList(ws);
TApaTask task = taskList.FindApp(id);

if(task.Exists())
    {
    task.BringToForeground();
    HBufC8* param8 = HBufC8::NewLC(param->Length());
    param8->Des().Append(*param);
    task.SendMessage(TUid::Uid(0), *param8); // UID not used
    CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(param8);
    }
else
    {
    if(!apaLsSession.Handle())
      {
      User::LeaveIfError(apaLsSession.Connect());
      }
    TThreadId thread;
    User::LeaveIfError(apaLsSession.StartDocument(*param, KOSSBrowserUidValue, thread));
    apaLsSession.Close();   
    }
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(param);

2. with CApaCommandLine (example is for S80)

const TUid KOSSBrowserUidValue ={0x101F4DED};

TUid id(KOSSBrowserUidValue);

RApaLsSession apaSession; // apgcli.h , apgrfx.lib
User::LeaveIfError(apaSession.Connect());

TApaAppInfo appInfo;
TInt retVal = apaSession.GetAppInfo(appInfo, id);

CApaCommandLine* cmd = CApaCommandLine::NewLC();
cmd->SetExecutableNameL(appInfo.iFullName);
cmd->SetCommandL(EApaCommandOpen);
cmd->SetDocumentNameL(_L("http://www.yahoo.com/"));

apaSession.StartApp(*cmd);
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(cmd);

3. over a Socket Connection


All 3 ways started the Opera browser but only with the default page not with the url i want ("http://www.yahoo.com/") :-(
When eg the message with the url is send (task.SendMessage(...) or socket.send(...)) opera comes in to the foreground but does nothing.

I know some of you had the same problem. Did you find an answer?

It gives me the willies!
Thanks for your help!

PS: i used S60 3rd Ed SDK FP2

Did not tried but add _L("4 ") so url might be ("4 http://www.yahoo.com/")

Did not tried but add _L("4 ") so url might be ("4 http://www.yahoo.com/")

thanks for your reply!
but this is only interpreted by the OSS Browser not by Opera.

BUT i found a SOLUTION!
Opera want an UTF-8 coded URL.. now it works fine

Thanks
