SimpleEx Build Error - bracket?!

[Baschdl]

G'Day,

I'm having trouble building my 1st example file from the tutorial "SimpleEx" in Wileys "Developing Software for Symbian OS".
Obviously, I'm fairly new to developing for Symbian - my goal is an app for my 6700 Slide (3rd edition FP2)

I'm using:
- Win XP
- ActivePerl-5.6.1.635-MSWin32-x86.msi
- S60_3rd_Edition_SDK_Feature_Pack_2_v1_1_en.zip
- Carbide_cpp_v2_7_en.exe
- Java 6.23

Both command line and carbine building report error. The curious thing is, most/all of them point to the curly brackets *confused* :

I hope you can point me in the right direction -
I double checked the writings in the book and everything looks exactly like -
Thanks in advance!

I want to know in which path you have create project ...???

For Cross check....Run or import your Symbian\9.2\S60_3rd_FP2\S60Ex\helloworldbasic example .....

why only one header is included irrespective of what cpp file it is : #include "SimpleEx.h" ?

[Baschdl]

why only one header is included irrespective of what cpp file it is : #include "SimpleEx.h" ?

I followed exactly as the book says,
here's the file:

#ifndef __SIMP_H
#define __SIMP_H
/*=====================
  S60 SimpleEx Header File
===================*/
#include <eikenv.h>
#include <eikon.hrh>
#include "SimpleEx.hrh"

#include <akndoc.h>
#include <aknapp.h>
#include <aknappui.h>
#include "SimpleExUid.h"
const TUid KUidSimpleExApp = {SIMPLEEXUID};

// The Application Class
class CSimpleExApplication : public CAknApplication
	{
	private:
		CApaDocument* CreateDocumentL();
		TUid AppDllUid() const;
		};
//The Application View Class
class CSimpleExAppView : public CCoeControl
	{
	public:
		static CSimpleExAppView* NewL(const TRect& aRect);
		static CSimpleExAppView* CSimpleExAppView::NewLC(const TRect& aRect);
		void ConstructL(const TRect& aRect);
	private:
		void Draw(const TRect&) const;
		};
// The UI Class
class CSimpleExAppUi : public CAknAppUi
	{
	public: 
		void ConstructL();
		~CSimpleExAppUi();
	private:
		void HandleCommandL(TInt aCommand);
		CSimpleExAppView* iAppView;
		};
// The Application Document Class
class CSimpleExDocument : public CAknDocument
	{
	public:
		CSimpleExDocument(CEikApplication& aApp): CAknDocument (aApp) {}
	private:
		CEikAppUi* CreateAppUiL();
#endif

I want to know in which path you have create project ...???

I wrote all the files from scratch (notepad plus - for learning I think it's necessary to create every file myself, learning by doing ), tried building it in command line and tried carbine after importing.

project path is: C:\Symbian\Carbide\workspace\SimpleEx

For Cross check....Run or import your Symbian\9.2\S60_3rd_FP2\S60Ex\helloworldbasic example .....

both command line and import in carbine work properly,
path: C:\S60\devices\S60_3rd_FP2_SDK_v1.1\S60CppExamples\helloworldbasic

alright, I found a typo at the end of SimpleEx.h
one missing curved bracket - in the book as well

class CSimpleExDocument : public CAknDocument
	{
	public:
		CSimpleExDocument(CEikApplication& aApp): CAknDocument (aApp) {}
	private:
		CEikAppUi* CreateAppUiL();

};

but now I encounter an "undefined identifier " in SimpleEx_UI.cpp:
Code:

/*=================================================================
	File: SimpleEx_UI.cpp
	This file contains the application UI class for S60 SimpleEx.
=================================================================*/
#include "SimpleEx.h"
void CSimpleExAppUi::ConstructL()
	{
	BaseConstructL(CAknEnableSkin);
	iAppView = CSimpleExAppView::NewL(ClientRect());
	}
CSimpleExAppUi::~CSimpleExAppUi()
	{
	delete iAppView;
	}
void CSimpleExAppUi::HandleCommandL(TInt aCommand)
	{
	switch(aCommand)
		{
		case EEikCmdExit:
		case EAknSoftkeyExit:
			Exit();
			break;
		case ESimpleExCommand:
			{
			_LIT(KMessage,"Start Selected!");
			iEikonEnv->AlertWin(KMessage);
			break;
			}
		}
	}

carbide view:

but now I encounter an "undefined identifier " in SimpleEx_UI.cpp:
Code:

	BaseConstructL(CAknEnableSkin);

omg... another typo in the book:
google gave me a solution: EAknEnableSkin

[slinx]

you made another typo, use EAknEnableSkin
