How is an EPK file added to the resource list for a carbide symbian s60 project?

I need to be able to build and view the resulting executable in the emulator, the source of which uses an epk file for resources (and won't run without it).

EdgeBuilder can't (afaik) build emulator executables, so I can't use that to create the resulting executable/sit.

Thanks,

Hi,
I use this in my S60 3rd edition project, and it works well.
But when i try to do this in my S60 2nd edition FP3 the application don't start.
If i put the EPK file in another place, everythink works, except the ClassEFile::Open method (normal, the file is not found).

Do you have an idea ?
Thanks

Hi David,

For old series 60 devices you need to change the installation path of your resource files. For a template, look here: http://www.edgelib.com/index.php?node=828 (look at the topmost code block).

For your application it could be:
"test.epk"-"!:\system\apps\your_appname\test.epk"

Hi Edge,

I have already test that. but when i put this line in the helloworld package. The application start and stop imediatly.

"C:\MyApp\res\MyEpk.epk"-"!:\system\apps\helloworld\MyEpk.epk".

Have an idea ?

RE Hi Edge,

Sorry, i have sayd something wrong.
It works well. My problem came from my trace methode that used "fopen". Apparently there is some problem with 'fopen'.
