PocketHAL on Symbian

hello all!

I want to port an engine I wrote to the symbian.
I used PocketHAL for PPC.

Does the pocketHAL for symbian generates an .EXE
file or is it a .DLL

it is important because I use global Variables,
and know for sure, that if I generate .EXE, I won't have a problem with the global variables.

cheers, tomer

PocketHAL on Symbian is distributed as a static library (.lib) file, just like it is for the PPC.

PocketHAL doesn't use any global variable internally. That means you can use PocketHAL in your own .EXE or .DLL on Symbian, it will work with both.

in MMP as exe?

You can do whatever you want. PocketHAL will work with both.
