active scheduler and console app

[anshulkothari]

I am new to symbian development and I am trying to develop a console application, which uses an active object.

It seems text application, don't have a active scheduler and so I need to Install my own. Now once installed, I cannot process any event unless I call ActiveSceduler::Start(). However, doing so leads me to situation, where my thread is restricted to RunL() unless I call ActiveScheduler::Stop(), which returns back the control to my main thread. However, since my scheduler is stopped, if I want to process the next event, I have to start the scheduler again. Thus, to process any event, I have to first start the scheduler and then stop it. I find it really weird and there might be a better way of doing. I was wondering if some one can help me with it.

did you remember to start a active object request before starting the active scheduler. Basically you should never call start for the active sheduler unless you have at least one active object set active before.
