-Call your draw here (to show a splash image)
-Call StartTimer()

// After Splash bilden
void CAAppUi::StartTimer()
   {
if(iPeriodic) StopTimer();
// How long the splash will be viewd
const TInt tickInterval=3000000;
iPeriodic=CPeriodic::NewL(0);
iPeriodic->Start(tickInterval,tickInterval,TCallBack(Tick, this));
   }
void CAAppUi::StopTimer()
   {
if(iPeriodic)
    {
iPeriodic->Cancel();
delete iPeriodic;
iPeriodic = NULL;
}
   }

// This method must be protected in your header file
TInt CAAppUi::Tick(TAny* aObject)
   {
return ((CAAppUi*)aObject)->DoTick();
   }
TInt CAAppUi::DoTick()
   {
// Go on and start the rest of your program
return 0;
   }

Yes, it happens. But I did not yet understand when this happens.
I used to have the problem some weeks ago but I cannot reproduce it.
And I have not found any solution in phpbb to solve this.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Has anyone else noticed that the forum often posts you as guest rather than the user you are logged in as?

Hope this helps .... (uses CPeriodic but I guess CTimer would work just fine ...) Please post back here if it does work!

Code:

// Start the timer (this is set to 100ms)
void MyClass::start() {
if(timer==0) {
timer=CPeriodic::New(CActive::EPriorityStandard);
timer->Start(TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds32(100000),TTimeIntervalMicroSeconds32(100000),TCallBack(TimeTick,this));
}
}

// Method in MyClass which will get called by the TimeTick function when the timer goes off
void MyClass::tick() {
// Do whatever
}

// Global function which simply passes the timer tick back to MyClass
TInt TimeTick(TAny *obj) {
((MyClass *)obj)->tick();
return 0;
}
