Errors compilling and debugging Helloworld

[doberlet]

Hi everyone!

I'm new at this whole symbian thing, so obviously i have a question for you. I'm trying to run a "helloworld" application on my Nokia 3650. I'm using Codewarrior and series 60 v1.2 SDK for metrowerks codewarrior. The problem is, taht when i try to debug the program, i keep getting the following errors:

Error : Symbian Resource - *** Unknown character 'C' (value 0x43) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character ':' (value 0x3a) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character '\' (value 0x5c) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character '\' (value 0x5c) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'D' (value 0x44) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'o' (value 0x6f) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'c' (value 0x63) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'u' (value 0x75) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'm' (value 0x6d) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'e' (value 0x65) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'n' (value 0x6e) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 't' (value 0x74) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 's' (value 0x73) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'a' (value 0x61) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'n' (value 0x6e) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'd' (value 0x64) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'S' (value 0x53) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'e' (value 0x65) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 't' (value 0x74) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 't' (value 0x74) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'i' (value 0x69) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'n' (value 0x6e) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 'g' (value 0x67) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character 's' (value 0x73) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown character '\' (value 0x5c) <empty>(1) : *** Unknown C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'C' (value 0x43) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character ':' (value 0x3a) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character '\' (value 0x5c) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character '\' (value 0x5c) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'D' (value 0x44) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'o' (value 0x6f) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'c' (value 0x63) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'u' (value 0x75) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'm' (value 0x6d) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'e' (value 0x65) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'n' (value 0x6e) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 't' (value 0x74) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 's' (value 0x73) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'a' (value 0x61) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'n' (value 0x6e) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'd' (value 0x64) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'S' (value 0x53) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'e' (value 0x65) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 't' (value 0x74) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 't' (value 0x74) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'i' (value 0x69) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'n' (value 0x6e) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 'g' (value 0x67) C:\\Symbian\\Series60_1_2_CW\\EPOC32\\INCLUDE\\eikon.rh(769) : *** Unknown character 's' (value 0x73) \\Koda\\HelloWorld\\GROUP\\NEW_PROJECT.RSS(30) : *** Unknown character 'C' (value 0x43) KSO2\\Koda\\HelloWorld\\GROUP\\NEW_PROJECT.RSS(30) : *** Unknown character ':' (value 0x3a) KSO2\\Koda\\HelloWorld\\GROUP\\NEW_PROJECT.RSS(30) : *** Unknown character '\' (value 0x5c) KSO2\\Koda\\HelloWorld\\GROUP\\NEW_PROJECT.RSS(30) : *** Unknown characte

NOTE: This is only a small portion of what it keeps writting. There are so errors with "unknown character", until the whole path (where i store my project) isn't written that way.

Please help.

Thanks

This error looks familiar. You might try searching this forum for "Unknown character" and see what pops up. I believe the problem is either:

1) You have the wrong SDK version, though it sounds like you have the correct one.

2) The example has a space in the path. This is not supported (unfortunately) in Symbian due to bugs in some of their Perl scripts.

Thanks,
Wapa

This really solved my problem.

Tanks a lot Wapa.
