Dear Professionals in Symbian,
My application on a Communicator Nokia 9500 produces error. The error message is as follows: Program closed. Reason code: KERN-EXEC. Reason number: 3.

The problem is that the code is executed in the Emulator,
while error occurs when the code is executed in the Communicator.
First I believed that the error resulted from char* type used.
But having changed void Preview(TInt aFontSize, char* aFmt1, ...) into
void Preview(TInt aFontSize, __e32_va_list aFmt1, ...) the code still runs in the Emulator successfully, while the same error remains in the Communicator.

I'm new in Symbian, so looking forward to hear your quick reply.
Thanks.

Kern-Exec 3 means an unhandled exception occured. I don't think the problem is our function signature.....Can you make any kind of debug on your device and let us know where exactly is the problem...may be we ca provide you more help

Keep an eye on stack (mis)usage (ie. overflow)

Following the gebug advice, I've downloaded D_EXC - Loggging Utility for Traps and Exception from Symbian site. It has produced 2 files d_exc...txt and d_exc...stk. But I can't identify information from these files. Who can help please? And more, how can I use two scripts printstk.pl and printsym.pl ( command line chain )Huh

Re: KERN-EXEC 3. Symbian Emulator uncompliance

it usually occurs when u have not handled the contorls u used.

try keeping a track of all the controls used n apply appropraite handlers to it.

gud luck.
