I have a Nokia 7610 eunning S60.2 so I got s60_sdk_v2_0.zip from Nokia and OPL-OS61-WINS-030.zip from the OPL pages. When I install the SDK I get loads of folders and I have no idea what is where or how to install the contents of the OPL package over it. Can anybody help me or point me to a clear set of instructions for doing this? Regards Patrick...

I am curious as to how to run OPL programs. Will OPOs appear as icons in the menu just like any other apps or will they all be grouped under a single icon? Will I have to wirte an OPA if I want my own icon? Regards Patrick... Tue, 09 Jun 2009 12:18:32 +0200 1244542712 http://my-symbian.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=36608 Quote from the first post: Hello! I have just started to develop for Nokia 9300i with OPL, as an exercise I'm making a program to calculate the cross product of two vectors. To make the program clear arranged, I want to make an own procedure for the calculating, but how can the procedure take the two vectors (arrays of float) as parameters? I've already tried these codes: calling the procedure: PROC main and #58; LOCAL a and #40;3 and #41;, b and #40;3 and #41; crossproduct and #40;a, b and #41; ENDP error: undefined externals PROC main and #58; LOCAL a and #40;3 and #41;, b and #40;3 and #41; crossproduct and #40;a and #40; and #41;, b and #40; and #41; and #41; ENDP error: bad array index the declaration of the procedure: PROC crossproduct and #40;u and #40; and #41;, v and #40; and #41; and #41; ENDP error: syntax error PROC crossproduct and #40;u and #40; and #41;, v and #40; and #41; and #41; ENDP error: syntax error Does anybody knows the syntax of that...

So it's a bit of a leap to be skipping over ER5 and jumping right into Symbian. I've already been reading around a bit, picking up as much info as I can. So far I'm doing alright, but since I've not got a device to test on right now (and installing the SDK is a problem for me that can't be solved right now), I've some questions I'd like to ask (if I'm lucky enough to find anyone to read them). First I'd like to know the story dealing with anything asynchronous, like sound or anything else? I remember having read some posts that this hasn't been implemented properly, but those messages are a few years old. How are things with v1.56? I'm thinking of getting a Nokia 9500 and on the OPL-DEV website, link below, there is the following note under Current Status: http://opl-dev.sourceforge.net/opl9500.html Also, there have been Nokia changes to the System Timers functions. Support for these APIs are not present in this v...

I am not a developer, i just need a program and have an idea. The program i need is very simple, hope very usefull, based on current time and simple mathematic calculations. If You are a truck driver, You know what TAHO is. You can drive maximum 4,5 hours nonstop, You have to stop for 1 hour than, drive 4,5 hours again and after that You have to sleep minimum 9 hours. All Your moves printed on taho-disc to let the police check if You didn't break that rules. The problem is, that You always have to keep in mind all these times- wheh You have started/stopped. It's not allowed to open taho and look to the disc during driving. Normally i use excel in my nokia 9300i, i made a small table where i typing all that time points. But its not comfortable at all. I have to see how many minutes(hours) i can drive still. If it becomes too less(say-30minutes), let it change the color into red to remind me, that i have to find good parking place. And i have to see how m...

In VB or similar I would use a listbox then get the index number when the selected event was triggered. How do I accomplish something like this in OPL?...
