Hi all,
I am porting a series 60 applicaton on UIQ.Using Peroon It was not very difficult and i ported it using peroon easily.
Now I don't want to use peroon. So I just want to completely port on UIQ with out using any tool.

My main problem is :
1. Application uses AknView architecture not CCoeControl based views...  so I want to know does UIQ also supports Similar type of View Architecture so that minimal changes are required.
2.I should use Eikon frame work classes or Qikon based classes.
3.Is there any reference porting source code  of some good series 60 applicaton without using any tool

If Any one knows Plz guide me

Hi,

You can create multiview application in UIQ also.
Derive ur class from CCoeControl and MCoeView interface. Implement the methods that r virtual in these and you can get the same functionality as in Series60. U don't need any third party tool like Paroon for that. Its quite simple one. Try to see some examples on Using MCoeView. U need to createonly a single class derived fron CCoeControl and MCoeView. This will handle ur complete view unlike as in Series 60 u need 2 classes one derived from CAknView and another Container class from CCoeControl.

Hope this will help u going ahead

Thanks for reply.
Yes I know it I can use Traditional architecture of Series 60 on UIQ as well.But my problem is that I am porting not developing from scratch...and the existing application(which is to be ported) is built using AVkon view architecture.If i will go to use traditional architecture then it will require lot of changes and looks lengthy taskand will increase the porting time as well.

My Simple Question is just like Series 60 has Avkon View Architecure , Does UIQ have Something  like QikonView ??
So that i think there will be less coding changes required...so that i can maintain only one code base to build application for both platform by using some necessary typedefs for necessary porting changes

Hi,

I have not found any such QikonView in UIQ. And i don't think UIQ provides any such View classes like Series 60.

Gurpreet Veerji:

Can you please provide an example of a class inheriting from both CCoeView and CAknView? I seem to have a problem with the same.

Please check recent thread with topic "Controls and View".

Thanks

Where coud I find a schematic of various *kon frameworks and how they're used in s60/s80/s90/uiq?
