and running example applications from the command line interface</h1>
|

<div><h3>Check the current SDK device</h3><p>Before starting to build an example application, you need to ensure
|
|
|
8 |
that the S60 SDK device points to the device that the application in question
|
|
|
9 |
is intended to run on. In other words, you need to make sure that the appropriate
|
|
|
10 |
SDK installation is set as default.</p><p>To check the device, perform the following steps:</p><ol>
|
|
|
11 |
<li id="GUID-DE3624BD-FB3A-4AB5-A3EC-7F452CF7F12C"><a xmlns:d="http://www.pnp-software.com/XSLTdoc" name="GUID-DE3624BD-FB3A-4AB5-A3EC-7F452CF7F12C"><!----></a><p>Open the command
|
|
|
12 |
prompt and enter the following command and press enter:</p><p><code>devices</code></p>
|
|
|
13 |
<p>This command displays all Symbian SDK installations available to you,
|
|
1
|
14 |
for example:</p><p><code>Nokia_Symbian3_SDK_v0.5:com.nokia.s60
|
|
0
|
15 |
- default</code></p><p>In the above, you can see that in this case
|
|
1
|
16 |
the <code>Nokia_Symbian3_SDK_v0.5:com.nokia.s60</code> is the default (active) SDK
|
|
0
|
17 |
(that is, the S60 5th Edition SDK
|
|
|
18 |
1). To switch between devices, use the <code>-setdefault</code> option
|
|
|
19 |
of the <code>devices</code> command. Enter this command to switch
|
|
|
20 |
to the S60 5th Edition SDK :</p>

information. </p></div>

<div><h3>Create the abld.bat file</h3><p>Once you have checked that the current SDK is the default SDK, you need
|
|
|
28 |
to create an <code>abld.bat</code> file. The <code>abld.bat</code> file
|
|
|
29 |
is a batch file that controls the build process. The <code>abld.bat</code> file
|
|
|
30 |
is generated from the <code>bld.inf</code> component description file.</p><p>To create the <code>abld.bat</code> file, perform the following
|
|
|
31 |
steps:</p><ol>
|
|
|

|
|
|
33 |
prompt and go to the application top-level folder.</p><p>For example, <code><S60_SDK_installation_directory>\S60CPPExamples\helloworldbasic</code></p></li>

|
|
|
35 |
top-level folder, locate the <code>group</code> subdirectory which

36 |
contains the <code>bld.inf</code> file.</p><p>For example, <code><S60_SDK_installation_directory>\S60CPPExamples\helloworldbasic\group\</code></p></li>

|
|
|
38 |
following command and press enter:</p><p><code>bldmake bldfiles</code></p>
|
|
|
39 |
<p>This will create the <code>abld.bat</code> file in the current
|
|
|
40 |
directory, making the <code>abld</code> command available for use.</p>
|
|
|
41 |
</li>
|
|
|
42 |
</ol><p>In the following, you will use the command in creating build files and
|
|
|
43 |
building the Hello World Basic example application. To find more information
|
|
|
44 |
on other commands and switches, enter the <code>abld</code> command
|
|
|
45 |
without arguments, for example:</p><p><code><S60_SDK_installation_directory>\S60CPPExamples\helloworldbasic\group\abld</code></p><p>The help message printed to the console provides more information on
|
|
|
46 |
the command and its parameters.</p></div>

<div><h3>Create the build files and build the application</h3><p>With the <code>abld</code> command available, perform the following
|
|
|
48 |
steps to create the needed build files:</p><ol>

49 |
<li id="GUID-7E73FB81-E0FE-4724-A538-5AEF4749D793"><a xmlns:d="http://www.pnp-software.com/XSLTdoc" name="GUID-7E73FB81-E0FE-4724-A538-5AEF4749D793"><!----></a><p>Open the command
|
|
|
50 |
prompt and go to the application folder, which now contains the <code>abld.bat</code> file.</p>
|
|
|
51 |
<p>For example:</p><p><code><S60_SDK_installation_directory>\S60ECPPExamples\helloworldbasic\group\</code></p>

|

56 |
</ol><p>Notice, that you have now built a debug build of the Hello World Basic
|
|

57 |
example application (that is, debug-type binaries), which you can run on the
|
|
|
58 |
emulator. This build is appropriate for your purposes at this point, as it
|
|
|
59 |
enables you to run and view the application on the S60 emulator.</p><p>The build process creates the necessary build files and application
|
|
|
60 |
binaries, including any resource files required.</p><p>This stage of the process may produce warnings. If there are errors,
|
|
|
61 |
it may be because the exports of a DLL component were not frozen. If the application
|
|
|
62 |
has a DLL component, you need to freeze the exports by performing the following
|
|
|
63 |
steps.</p><ol>

65 |
group folder, enter the following command:</p><p><code>abld freeze</code></p>

66 |
<p>For example,</p><p><code><S60_SDK_installation_directory>\S60CPPExamples\SIPExample\group\abld
|
|
|
67 |
freeze</code></p><p>This ensures that the exports are frozen. To
|
|
|
68 |
use the frozen exported interfaces, the application needs to be re-built after
|
|
|
69 |
the freeze. </p></li>
