Lots of applications need user input for the Access point to use. The easiest way to query for an IAP is as follows:

Header required:

#include <commdb.h>
#include <ApSettingsHandlerUI.h>

Link against:

LIBRARY apsettingshandlerui.lib
LIBRARY commdb.lib

Source file:

void CMyAppView::AccessPointGetterL()
{
	iConnOK=EFalse;
 
	CApSettingsHandler* settingsHandler = CApSettingsHandler::NewLC(
        ETrue, 
        EApSettingsSelListIsPopUp   , 
        EApSettingsSelMenuSelectNormal,
        KEApIspTypeAll, 
        EApBearerTypeAll, 
        KEApSortNameAscending);
 
        TUint32 originallyFocused(0);
        // 0 is not valid IAP id. Failed if 0 after RunSettingsL().
        TUint32 selectedIap(0); 
 
        // Show the dialog
        settingsHandler->RunSettingsL(originallyFocused, selectedIap);
 
	// The CApUtils API is deprecated/removed, the following code can be
        used
	// to convert the WapAP Id to IAP Id    
	if (selectedIap)
	{
        CCommsDatabase* db = CCommsDatabase::NewL();
        CleanupStack::PushL(db);
 
    	CCommsDbTableView* wapTable;
	wapTable = db->OpenViewMatchingUintLC( TPtrC(WAP_ACCESS_POINT),
                                       TPtrC(COMMDB_ID), selectedIap );
    	User::LeaveIfError( wapTable->GotoFirstRecord() );
 
        TBuf<100> wapBearer;
	wapTable->ReadTextL(TPtrC(WAP_CURRENT_BEARER), wapBearer);
 
   	if ( wapBearer == TPtrC(WAP_IP_BEARER) )
       	{
            CCommsDbTableView* bearerTable;
            bearerTable = db->OpenViewMatchingUintLC( TPtrC(wapBearer),
                                            TPtrC(WAP_ACCESS_POINT_ID), 
                                            selectedIap );
            User::LeaveIfError( bearerTable->GotoFirstRecord() );
            bearerTable->ReadUintL(TPtrC(WAP_IAP), iIap );
            CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy( bearerTable ); // bearerTable
        }
       else
       {
           User::Leave( KErrInvalidBearerType );
       }
       CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(2); // db, wapTable,         	
    }        
    else
    {
	iIap = 0;
    }
 
    CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(settingsHandler);
 
    if(!iIap)
    {
    	iConnOK=EFalse;
    }
    else
    {
	iConnOK=ETrue;
    }
}

Header file:

TBool iConnOK;		//< Is connection set?
TUint32 iIap;			//< Current IAP
