I made an application which worked under the emulator for S60 3rdEd FP2, but crashed in Nokia E60 (S60 3.0(?)). I checked on other phone with S60 3.2 (FP2) and the application worked with no errors, which I was happy about, of course. I decided to install an older SDK - S60 Maintanance Edition - to check the application behaviour.. First error I am encountering now is panic EIKCTL 42.
The problem is with the icon index in the entries:

"\tFirst entry\t" - correct in SDK S60 3.2, but here in S60 3.0 it is an error. To solve it, you need to provide an icon index, so entering "0\tFirst entry\t" is OK! :/ but then I get an icon next to the entry (and I don't want to):/

I create a listbox in the following way:

iListBox   = new( ELeave ) CAknSingleGraphicStyleListBox();
iListBox->ConstructL(this, EAknListBoxSelectionList);
// then I add icons, but the code is rather irrelevant here

In general everything works fine in S60 3 FP2 but in S60 3.0 it fails:/

neither EAknListBoxMarkableList or EAknListBoxSelectionList works:/

If anyone has any comments or suggestions.. please share.
Regards

I encountered this too. I solved this by making a blank icon for entries for which I didn't want to see the icon.

Re: S60 MR and EIKCTL!?

Thank you for the reply. It is a good idea to have a blank icon:) However I turned back to a newer version of SDK. Apparently they changed their minds about the icons in newer SDK versions. Still it seems that on older phones, it works without the icon index, which in turn looks like an inconsistency.
