Hi This might be similar to my problem - I get the same panic:/ when I include the (kind of) setting list into a form then I get KERN-EXEC 3 on my phone (Nokia E60). When I run the same on the emulator (S60 3rd Ed FP1 or FP2) no errors! There are also no errors on latest phones.. Something must be wrong in the older S60 3rd Ed phones (their software)..

BaseConstructL(EAknEnableSkin);

in your AppUi ConstructL

Hi Paul, Thanks for your useful article. But if I follow the same approach to create a setting list (with setting item CAknBinaryPopupSettingItem) to include into a form instead of dialog, it crashes with the panic EXEC 3.

What could be the actaul reason.

Thanks
Anand

Sorry, I don't have time to write one.

There is an example in the Series 60 Example code supplied with the SDK.

The sample is called SettingsList.

There is further information in s60_platform_avkon_ui_resources_setting_lists_v1_1_en.pdf in the S60 documents folder.

You, my friend, are a genius and a god send... lol.. After working with the very lame Nokia and Developing Series 60 book settings examples, I had gotten nada. These examples show how to create the settings list, but they are embedded in a completely rediculous, bloated, nonsence app that can't be mapped very easily to a real-world application.

Your example allowed me to add the settings list to my current application with ease. I can't thank you enough. Nokia and the book writers should follow your lead in creating examples. I thought Symbian was bad with docs... Nokia is even worse... at least for Series 60 2.1...lol

Okay.. I am done bashing... again, thanks for your very cogent example.

Nice article. Code works fine for me. However, when I try to add a new type of item to the custom control, my app crashes when an attempt to edit the new item is made. I can add additional editors as AVKON_SETTING_ITEM resources, and it works. But if I add other types of items, such as a slider, the app fails. The item will be properly displayed in the dialog, but when I choose the Select softkey the line:

iSettingsList->EditItemL( itemIndex, ETrue );

fails. Any ideas on what I might be doing wrong? Thanks, Dan

One of the more interesting classes in Avkon or Nokia Series 60 devices is the CAknSettingItemList control. This control differs from the other list type controls in that it allows items to be edited and displayed in the list. The control will allow you to create a list of items with a wide range of editors...
