Example Icons not shown : Please help !

[Mauro_Nokia]

I have reinstalled the enviroment ( Carbide, perl and sdk ).
Now the application icons are not shown on the emulator and on the phone (6630) but it shows the default icons.
This happen also for the examples given with the SDK.
May be bacause of the same problem when I launch the documentHandler from within my application, it crashes.
Some resource seems to be wrong or missing.

really don't know what else to try.
really hope somebody will help.

Please Help ! Alessandro.

Looks like the *.aif file is beeing created under %EPOCROOT%Epoc32\Data\z\system\apps\<projectname>\ instead of %EPOCROOT%Epoc32\release\winscw\udeb\z\system\apps\<projectname>\ This explains the emulator displaying the "wrong" icon but it does not explain why the icon is missing on device since it is your job to put it there by specifying the correct source/destination for it in the *.pkg file.

Solution1: copy the file in the right place.
Solution2: play a bit with Carbide and teach it the right target path

right-click on the .aifdef file -> Properties -> C/C++ Build -> Aif Compiler -> General options -> Target path = ..\..\release\winscw\udeb\z\system\apps\<projectname>

Solution3: indentify the import script error and correct it so that the import generates correct WINSCW settings

I try Solution1:

It works for the HelloCarbide Example

but not for my application:
Copyed to %EPOCROOT%Epoc32\release\winscw\udeb\z\system\apps\<projectname>\
but nothing changes !

It was working ! I have reinstalled and changed the project name.

Thanks! hope for your help, Alessandro.

So you have an error (file not found) on line 20 of your *.pkg script.
Use the attached picture as a guide (pretend to see ARMI instead of GCCE and S60 2.6 instead of 3.0
- open the file (2),
- identify the problem on line 20
- if a correction is needed to the pkg script edit the template *.pkg file (1)
- otherwise fix the problem at file system level (copy the file here it is expected to be) or fix the build scripts to put the file always in the right place
