problem about Reading data from a RESOURCE FILE to an application

[windalfred0]

Dear all

I have met a problem during reading data from a resource file. I have refered to the default example code (base\readdata), but I got a "program close" error in my emulator

the following the part of my code for reading data
**********************************************
RResourceFile resourceFile;
RFs fsSession;
fsSession.Connect();

resourceFile.OpenL( fsSession, _L ("C:\\system\\apps\\owm\\owm.rsc") );

resourceFile.ConfirmSignatureL(0);

HBufC8* res = resourceFile.AllocReadLC(CDA);
iLog->Log(_L("dddd"));

delete res;
resourceFile.Close();
fsSession.Close();
iLog->LogNewline();

**********************************************

I know that i have to call ConfirmSignature() before calling AllocReadLC(), but I still get the error. I can log the string "dddd" so it means i got the error after calling the AllocReadLC or probably later

So anyone knows what's going on????
Help~~~~~

Use the following method to do it:

RConeResourceLoader loader;
_LIT(KDllResFileName, "z:\\system\\data\\xxx.rsc");
TFileName fileName;
fileName.Copy(KDllResFileName);
loader.OpenL(fileName);

Hope this helps!

by the way, how to access those RESOURCE data via the loader?
thx

Once the resource is loaded, you can just use it directly as normal. It works the same as the ones defined in your currentl .rss file. Please try it. Should you have any problems, please let me know.

another question here...

i failed to get the correct data from my resource file
i have succeeded in loading the RSC file, then i tried to access the data by TResourceReader (just as the example from the SDK)

i tried this

theReader.ReadInt32() (nb sth like this, to get a LONG)

and

theReader.ReadHufC8 (nb still sth like this, to get a LTEXT)

but i have got some strange things...but not my data defined in the RESOURCE file....

my resource file is like this
RESOURCE ARRAY cda
{
datament = {
DATA{
longNum = 8;
ltextString = "ABC";
},
..............

};
}

"It works the same as the ones defined in your currentl .rss file"

i don't understand what u mean in this statement quite much...

so i can create a TResourceReader after creating the RConeResourceLoader, and then access the data via the Reader as normal?

or i don't need to create a Reader at all but to access the data via the Loader directly??

besides would u mind to give me a sample code?

thx a lot~~

hi

I'm also trying to read an array from the resource file. I need it for getting the text selected from a CAknEnumeratedTextPopupSettingItem. Can you show me your solution?

thanks
