BREW user's guide says "ensure that the applet subdirectory exists and has the same name as the MIF. Also, ensure that the applet subdirectory contains the applet DLL."

For more information please read the Problem and warning section of the BRW SDK user guide.

The reason is that the .dll was put into a subfolder.

After I moved it to the applet folder as Arun mentioned, everything went smoothly.

Thank you.:)

When I program my first brew apllication, the emulator tell me that

This application has been
unloaded to save memory.
You must download a new
version.

Why?
please help me

Check if the applet directory name and the MIF file name are the same. Also check if the applet directory contains the applet DLL. Some times your dll will be in debug or release folder. Change the path of dll in your project settings. For more info refer Problems and warning section of BREW SDK user's guide.

Hi,

Is there a limitation of size of the dll that can run on the emulator?
I get no compile or liniking errors. But when I try to launch the applet on the emulator, the applet is cancelled. The message that I get on the emulator screen states that the "The application has been unloaded to save memory. You must download a new version". The size of the dll I was 200kb. How can I compile it to be of smaller size?

Thanks

Thanks a lot for the info.

But I did check for these things earlier. The only way I was able to get the app to work was by placing the MIF file 1 directory above the applet directory and by compiling the dll into the applet directory. Further, I had to change the IApplet * parameter in the Handle_Event function to AEEApplet *.

Thanks.

Oops..Sorry, i forgot that you r testing ur application on 2.0. Yes in 2.0 you need to keep your MIF file one directory above the applet directory. Alternatively u can change the MIF directory path in the emulator also.

I met the same question as you, and you may make one of the follow questions:
1 the .mif and .bid file is not in the directory you choose.
2 the .dll is not in the directory you choose.
3 you are not use the brew wizard in the VC, and the configration is not right

I am a new BREW user and whenever loading a simple application, always gives the error : " The application has been unloaded to save memory. You must dowload a new version"
I am using BREW SDK v2.0.0

Could somebody suggest any possible issues?

Make sure that your MIF directory is one directory above your application directory.

Also make sure that you are not creating your dll in the Debug sub-directory. u can change it in the project settings. create it within the app directory.

Hello,

To anyone that can help, I've compiled the myfirstapp following each step along the way. Everything builds fine. When I use the emulator, I see the myfirstapp present. If I select it I get:

"This application has been unloaded to save memory. You must download a new version."

The log is:

What the HELL is going on? This is my first attempt at just trying to do something in BREW so I don't know the quirks yet. I tried building a release dll rather than debug but that didn't seem to make a difference.

Thanks for any feedback

When you compile it, your dll is probably going into the Debug subdirectory. it has to be moved into the working dir, one level up.

or..... your .mif file and .dll file have different names.

Doug_Dyer

01-27-2003, 06:13 AM

Well all of those were good suggestions. I did in fact leave the DLL in the debug directory but that wasn't all...

The MyFirstApp.mif file has to be in the examples folder with the others (roadwarrior, whiteboard, etc). I thought I could just have them together in a project folder and "change applet dir" in the emulator but thats apparently not allowed :)

Examples/*.mif
Examples/myfirstapp/myfirstapp.dll

Thanks for the feedback
Doug

tyndal

01-27-2003, 07:49 PM

Yes you can put them in a different folder and do a "change applet dir" you just have to make sure the directory structure is like this:

somedir/myapp.mif
somedir/myapp/myapp.dll

somedir can be whatever directory you would like, it doesnt have to be the Examples directory.

Just to make sure, this is the 2.x emulator I am talking about.

Hi there..

I'm trying to create a new 1.1 app. I use the brew wizard, create a good mif file, with correct bid, correct images/icons/etc.., correct name.
When i want to start it, boom, bug, but nothing in my app is called (i placed breakpoints EVERYwhere :), just got this message in the brew2 emulator:
"This application has been unloaded to save memory. You must download a new version".. I joind the log file, but any idea??

Have you changed your linker settings so that your dll goes into the application's root directory instead of the \debug subdirectory?

The Emulator can't find your .dll.

Btw this is quiet weird, because i'm using the same MIF and startup routine than another working project.. maybe this is something wrong in the default vc project configuration, but i checked it.. Probably something i have not seen?

Murray Bonner

07-24-2003, 01:36 PM

Do you mean you have the same classID in 2 .mif's in the mif directory? I'm sure you know they need to be unique.

07-25-2003, 02:29 AM

the directory contains the mod file must has the same name as the the mif file's. it seems to me your directory has a wrong name

tom

07-25-2003, 09:19 AM

Yeah, the first time i tried to run an app that wasn't in the examples directory i wasted a whole day trying to figure it out. You must use this directory structure:

<your_folder>/your_app.mif
<your_folder>/your_app/your_app.dll

Remember that, by default, Visual C++ puts the dll in a Debug or Release subdirectory, so you have to change that in your project settings in Visual Studio.

Make sure your MIF has the same class id as you used in your code.

--t

Vexxed

07-25-2003, 11:26 AM

You get that message when the emulator finds the MIF, but can't find the DLL.

Remember that the Emulators will look for MIFs in the MIF directory you specify, but it looks for the DLL in:

<App directory>\<MIF Name>\<MIF Name>.dll

So if you have both the App Directory and the MIF directory set to be the same, then you should have the following directory structure:

MyApp.mif
MyApp\MyApp.dll
MyApp\MyApp.bar

Hi Kufa,

Have you found the solution for it?
i had similar problem though it's not on my machine, it's in NSTL testing:
=============================================
Error: If the user starts the PC emulator, the emulator displays the following error message. "The Application Was Unloaded To Save Memory. You Must Download A New Version." Thus, the emulator failed to run. (Test Case 3.3.10.2, 3.7.1.1)

Steps to reproduce error:

1. Setup grinder per Brew Manual instructions
2. Press the select button on the emulator
=============================================
any idea and suggestion?
the big problem is that I cannot reproduce this on my machine, and I have no clue about what this error might be caused by...

Thanks,

tom

01-25-2004, 09:27 AM

This is a common question. Search on "subdirectory emulator".

tom

01-25-2004, 09:36 AM

Well, okay, here's everything in one place:

The emulator is finding the mif but not the dll. You need this directory structure:

/some_path/your_app.mif
/some_path/your_app/your_app.dll

Make sure there's no sig file in the subdirectory.

By default, Visual Studio puts the dll in a Debug or Release subdirectory depending on the build configuration. You need to change the Output Filename in the project settings on the Link tab.

When you say "it works fine" do you mean you actually have run the app before?
--t

mhdave

01-25-2004, 11:01 AM

Well I followed the same directory structure as suggested but that ddint work either.
I am sorry I meant to say my mod files works fine.

tom

01-26-2004, 11:58 AM

Is the class id that you used in the mif the same as the class id you're checking for in AEEClsCreateInstance?

tom

01-26-2004, 12:15 PM

Actually, a wrong class id gives a different error when you run it. I'm not sure of all the causes for the message that you're seeing, but it definitely comes up when the emulator can't find the DLL.

You're running the version 2.0 emulator? Did you uncheck the mif directory in Settings? The DLL filename and the subfolder have the exact same name?

mhdave

01-26-2004, 12:52 PM

Thanks Tom.
I checked the classID in the Bid file and the mif file and thats the same. Other games like jeopardy works fine on the emulator. I tried emulator version 2.0 and when i try to run the app, it crashes. It dosent even reach a point when the app is first initialized. I read the tech spec. when the error reporting screen pops up and it shows that thers some access violation. The debugger just opens the assembly code.

tom

01-26-2004, 06:16 PM

So now it's getting past that "The application has been unloaded" message, and if you put a breakpoint at the top of AEEClsCreateInstance, it crashes before it hits the breakpoint?

I've seen that before, but don't remember how to fix it...

Two things to check:

1) If you have multiple versions of the BREW SDK installed, make sure your BREWDIR environment variable is pointing to the right version of the BREW SDK. Also, if your project contains the AEEAppGen and AEEModGen files (there are ways to avoid this), then make sure it is pointing to the correct ones.

2) In the Visual C++ project settings for the Debug configuration, look at the C/C++ tab, Code Generation category, and make sure the run-time library is Debug Multithreaded.

mhdave

01-27-2004, 10:25 AM

i changed the debug settings and now everything works fine...

If the Brew emulator shows

means the dll is not found by the emulator......

try chaging the applet dir option in the emulator menu........

good luck...

This error usually means that the app DLL isn't in the right directory, or the simulator is looking in the wrong directory. Make sure the applet dir is set in the simulator to be the directory above where the DLL is, and that the DLL is in a folder with the same name as itself.

BillC

04-01-2004, 01:08 PM

I have the Applet DIR set to the project folder which is also where the DLL resides. According to BREW documentation this is the proper setting. When I change the Applet DIR to the folder above the project folder the Simulator no longer displays the applet as a program to run? I can only assume this means it can't find the DLL?!

Ah - you need to change all your files and directories to lowercase. The BREW file system only supports lowercase names. The BREW Emulator was more forgiving with respect to naming conventions, but the Simulator is a real stickler for protocol.

Hi. After a long absence I've started to work on porting a smartphone game to BREW. I've got my old libraries working again and a clean compile.

I'm just wondering though if theres a way to make the emulator do anything other than tell me my app has been unloaded to save memory and that I should download a new one ?

I'm developing v1.1 software but using the 2.0 emulator, and the moto skin I'm using has been given 5Mb to play with in the configurator.

Is there someone I have to bribe or something so I can just get on and write some code ?

06-16-2004, 03:28 PM

When launching my applet, I get the message "The application has been unloaded to save memory..."

My first thoughts were that the DLL did not exist or some problems with the MIF file.
However, my application has been running already. The only difference is that I added a lot of files into the project.
which made me think there is maybe a size limitation to the DLL.

The error I get from the output window is:
App Context Created 528753
First-chance exception in BREW_Emulator.exe (MYAPP.DLL): 0xC0000005: Access Violation.
#*g*C=81171:257
App_Close (81171) - NO RESUME
App_Cleanup(81171)
App_Free(81171)
App_Cleanup(81171)

So, is there any limitation to the DLL size or the number of object code files to be loaded by applet?
Is there a way to step into the ISHELL_CreateInstance?

My applet is a BREW extension that gets called thru a ISHELL_CreateInstance.
My applet's AEEClsCreateInstance function does not get called at all (I put a breakpoint but it does get hit) and the ISHELL_CreateInstance returns 0x00000101.

Any idea?

charliex

06-16-2004, 05:46 PM

is your applet structure size larger than a signed short can hold, theres a "bug" in the prototype and function for the createapplet applet size required that only allows upto a signed short in size.

i always modify my sdk to allow 32 bits unsigned, since somehow i doubt i'd ever be asking for a negative value to be allocated :) but someone at qualcomm obviously thinks there is a need to allocate negative amounts of memory.

typically though, i only need it though when prototyping on the emulator.

ericF

06-16-2004, 05:50 PM

where to you modify the createapplet to take unsigned 32?

charliex

06-16-2004, 06:04 PM

only do it if you *need* a large "applet structure" size, this not the size of the dll or the mod, its the size of the custom structure you pass around insde the game, with the AEEApplet in it.

its the size parameter in the CreateInstance, it should be int16 or something, set it to uint32 in the header and aeeappgen.c or aeemodgen.c i forget which it is

I'm using the new VS.Net wizard at
https://brewx.qualcomm.com/bws/content/gi/products/vsaddins/3.0/3.0.0.5/web_install/install.htm

This seems to set things up so that that the MIF and DLL are in the same dir. The ID is a user local #defined by the MIF editor, so that doesn't seem to be a problem either.

However, running an un-modified "empty" project generated by the wizard gives the "...unloaded to make room..." error. :confused:

(I'm running debug and also can't grab breakpoints, but I'm sure that's something simple.)
Ideas?

Some of the posts/faqs seem to imply (or more likely I misread them) that the default setting of the emulator (when a seperate MIF dir isn't specified) means dlldir == mifdir -- but I see that mifdir == dlldir/..
It doesn't help that the wizard seems to create an extra level of directory ...MyApplets/MyApp/MyApp/Debug...

Hello!

This problem is not as simple as it seems from looking at the title. I am well aware of what it normally means if the emulator reports that "The application has been unloaded to save memory..:"; the applet directory is incorrect, the DLL or MOD file has the wrong filename, etc. This is not the case for me however.

If I, using VS.NET 2003, start my applet on the emulator in debug mode (which gives me the emulator output to the debug window in VS), I get the follwing output:

As you can see, VS reports that the emulator actually loads my applet's DLL. My AEEClsCreateInstance is never called however. Neither is any function in AEEAppGen.c and AEEModGen.c. Could the line "App Context Created -2023406815" give some clue? I have never seen a negative value for this. Is it perhaps an error code I could look up somewhere?

My application is a rather large C++ application so its kind of difficult to go into details on what the application does or post any source code. It can say, however, that it worked fine until I made some minor changes which I, as far as I can tell, all have restored back to the way things were when it was working (I can of course have missed something...).

Has anyone experienced similar problems? Grateful for any ideas!

Best regards

HI,
I am a new learner of BREW SDK. and I started working on sample codes available at
https://brewx.qualcomm.com/brew/sdk/download.jsp?page=dx/samplecode
I have installed them successfully and placed them into <C:\Program Files\BREW 3.0.1\sdk\examples>
Now from brew simulator I have set the MIF directory path to same. And I’m able to see the application icons on the brew simulator screen.

But problem is that whenever I start any application one message has come in new window stating that

Disabled
This app was disabled to save space.
Would u like to restore it now?
[Restore] [Cancel]

And when I clicked on Restore button nothing is goanna happen
I don't know y this problem is there.

Can u help me out what can be the reason behind this problem ??????

I've copied the same source code to Studio 6 and it works...

I am using .Net 2003 and have the same problem. Does BREW SDK work with .NET 2003?

Does anyone has the solution?

I have built a basic application via the BrewAppWizard using MSVC++6.0 (adding no original code at all). I then created a .MIF using the MIF editor. When I attempt to open this app in the simulator I get a few errors:

My icon from the MIF editor is not displayed. Instead a bunch of cubes stacked on top of each other or a doc ripped in half are displayed.
When I open the app through the simulator...
DisabledThis app was disabled to save space. Would you like to restore it now?
Two options are shown (restore/cancel) but restore does nothing.

I am not sure where the error lies, technically there should be no error since this is only skeletal code. Could anyone tell me where my fault is?

1)
The emulator is not getting the path of the dll.
Go to the a) project-menu = settings & in the general tab the Output tab
should be blank if it is debug then ur dll is in the debug which shouldn't be.
put ur dll in the game directory.

2)

The only reason i can figure out is that the dll is not generated in the Application directory instead in might be generated in the Application directory/debug.

We've been building and debugging an app for some time, and happily
running it in the emulator (v2.1 & 3.0) with no problems.

I recently built an emulator drop zip file to send to our customer for screen
shots, and he gets the above mentioned error.
The emulator clearly can't find the DLL.

But we've followed all of the proscribed rules:
The applet dir contains:
myappname.mif
myappname (directory)
myappname/myappname.bar
myappname/myappname.dll

The Class ID in the MIF file is the same as that in the DLL.

3 Diff developers can unzip and run this app on 5 different development
PC's; with no problems, with both the SDK 2.1 Emulator and SDK 3.1.2 Simulator.

But on two different customer PC's that each have SDK 2.1.x loaded,
(which do successfully run other apps) in the emulator, they cannot
run this app.

Any ideas?

bulach

05-24-2005, 06:20 AM

I'd suggest for double checking:

1. MIF directory (Emulator, Tools->Settings)

2. App directory (Emulator, File->Change Applet Dir)

3. Emulator "skin" being used. Make sure your customer use the same QSC file as you..

The simulator can't find your DLL. Make sure it is named correctly and in the right directory.

Jonathan

09-27-2005, 09:11 AM

This message occurs when the simulator can not find the .dll. You can try the following:

1. Go to Project->Settings->general and clear text from output text box. This will place the .dll in your working directory and not the debug directory

2. Make sure the directory structure is correct. If you do not specify the MIF directory(default) then it should be as follows:
<Applet directory>/<appname>.MIF
<Applet directory>/<appname>/<appname>.mod .bar etc...

3. Make sure that all files and directories are lowercase(including .dll). 3.x is case sensitive.

Also, I would just like to mention that this is the behavior that occurs if you have any static variable or static function usage. I recently was porting from J2ME to brew and forgot that BREW does not have support for static members and this was the result.

Members,

I'm using 3.1.5.27 version of BREW Simulator along with
BREW SDK tools 1.0.1, and BREW SDK 3.1.5.

After I followed all the basic instructions described in 'Running BREW Applications on the Mobile Device,' I executed the simulator to test it.

The phone, when I hit the OK button, displayed message as :

"This application has been disabled. Would you like to restore it?"

and presented me with 'yes' and 'no' option.
I pressed 'Yes,' meaning I would like to restore it, thinking it is the right thing to do.

However, the simulator keeps ignoring my request, and complies only when I press 'No' and exits to the main menu.

I am puzzled to where this problem is coming from.
Can any of you people give me some direction to right path?

Thank you...

alexx

04-26-2006, 11:38 PM

Hello

I also had this problem once. It seems that the simulator displays this message when it cannot locate the .DLL file with your applet. Make sure you put the .DLL to the right folder (for ex. your .MIF path is C:/brew/myapp.mif and .DLL must be C:/brew/myapp/myapp.dll). In my case that was the problem. Good luck.

rabidcow

04-27-2006, 11:12 AM

It will also do this if there's an error when loading your dll, eg if you link in GCCResolver and it tries to use BREW's stdlib stuff before the pointer is set up.

Hi,

I saw this thread and read it because i confronted this issue with a simple game example. It puzzled me at the moment but since i had a lot to do, i put it away. Today, as i read this thread, i went and checked to see if my dll was in fact where it should have been. Lo and behold it wasn't even compiled. So i did and it is working fine now. So most likely, having this kind of error has a lot to do with your mif file and the dll for you app. Make sure that these are where the emulator is expecting themto be found. If you must, redo the mif file(decompile it, recompile t -- makig sure you are using the correct directories for your app. Remember, if you had a previous version of the SDK and download an updated one, VS may not be pointing the same brew sdk directory tree--and recompile the app's dll)

I hope this helps.

Albert

PS if your VS is not pointing to the "correct" BREW directory tree, you may add the old ones into the path. This is what i did when i found that the Official New SDK and a non-official c++ sdk (in japanese, dont ask :D) removed old defs and installed theirs instead.

what should i do?

Jonathan

07-07-2006, 09:01 AM

Sounds like your putting your dll in the wrong directory. Go to Project->Settings and delete the "Output files" text box. This will cause your dll to be added to your top app directory.

wyrzy

08-05-2006, 05:56 AM

I apologize for the post, it something stupid. I had named my applet folder something different than my mif file.

===================================
Does anyone know what the error message: "This application has been disabled. Would you like to restore it?" means? I'm completely new to BREW programming, and I was just trying to program a simple app in BREW, and after I created the .mif file, the "simulator" gave me that error when I tried to run it.

The program appeared in the device, and I have my .mif file named the same as my .dll (except for the extensions are different) and they're also in the same directory. Also, I just created my own .bid file (I chose the CLSID to be 0xABCDEF01).

I downloaded the newest SDK, v 3.1.5, and followed the "creating a project with Visual Studio 2003" to a tee, so I'm not sure what could be going wrong.

If anyone has heard of that error message and knows what it means, I would greatly appreciate it if you could kind of give me a start at where I should be looking for what I am doing wrong.

Thanks.

If you don't have mif and mod file in right place you would see such error. By the way the constant dumping of debug message in BREW 3.1.5 simulator is a issue/bug; reported to Qualcomm. I was told that they would fix it in the next release.

hi'
i program is compiled successfully,but at run time on the emulator show
"This application has been unloaded to save memory. You must download a new version."
I ensure my applete dir. and mif same name,
and the applet subdirectory contains the applet DLL.
plz give some suggestion.

hi sourabh,
ther r two things for that first fo to the setting and then in the general section select not using mfc and then in link remove the debug and directly set the dll name ther as your applicatin name is. n then run the app.
i think this may solve your prob

Hi All,
I installed BREW SDK 3.1.5 and BREW SDK tools. I followed the steps to from "Starting BREW Development Guide" create simple "hello world" application.
I created MIF file and helloworld.dll by building the app in VC++. When i try to execute the app from VC++, i selected the BREW_Simulator.exe (\Program Files\BREW 3.1.5\sdk\bin) since i could not find BREW_Emulator.exe in this directory.
I set properly the Applet and MIF directory in Simulator. I can see my app icon in simulator, but when i click(select) on my app, I get "This application has been disabled. Would you like to restore it?". After this nothing happens even if select "Yes" or "No".
I appreciate your help.

Thanks,
Mahesh

the problem is definitely in MOD/DLL file. It means that your source file(s) contains a critical error and can't start the applet. Check your source code carefully and rebuild (clean and build) it.
You could play with sample application as well: make sure examples are launched successfully and add your features. Than you will know for sure which piece of your code may cause the issue.

Can anybody help, how to deal with erroe msg: "This application has been disabled. Would you like to restore it?" ?
It happens when I start my applet from Simulator ver.3.1.
MIF file directry and Applet directory are chosen correctly.
Attemp to choose "restore it" doesn't make any difference. The only thing I can do - to quit from this msg to main menu.
I use BREW SDK ver. 3.5.1.
Any ideas, what is missing?

that either means its not setup in the folder layour correctly, or that the AEEApplet initialise routine has failed, which can mean its a Classs ID conflcit, or the programs failing to initialise etc.

Can anybody help?
It was a working applet before I tried to create a new project and start it. Didn't work out, I returned to the old one "myapp", and still having same problem.
Tried to put MIF together with DLL and separately - same result.
And I also re-compiled, cleaned, re-built, etc. a thousand times.
Does anybody know what to do?

max

12-15-2006, 01:27 PM

Do you have the "applet directory different from mif directory" option checked in the Simulator? If so, uncheck it. Can you verify that your application directory name is all lower-case?

The directories look right from what you say in your post, but a 257 error is EFILENOEXISTS, which would seem to imply that your DLL can't be located.

ruslanm

12-15-2006, 03:05 PM

"applet directory different from mif directory" option I have as "YES", if I put "NO"in there, then it doesn't show my applet's icon with current configuration.
If I put MIF together with DLL and put "YES" or "NO" in this option - anyway same error msg. Nothing helps. Application directory is: C:\Program Files\BREW 3.1.5\sdk\examples\myapp. Do you think, "C:\Program Files\BREW 3.1.5" can cause it?
I doubt it cause when I put everything in root directory (c:\examples\myapp) - same problem happens in all combinations.

No, it's not a problem with the spaces in your directory name -- I have my SDK installed in a similar directory. Try putting your MIF directory as <SDK dir>/examples/, and make sure that the "MIF directory differnt from Applet directory" is set to No (assuming you have myapp.mif in the <SDK dir>/examples/ location and the DLL in the <SDK dir>/examples/myapp/ location as you mentioned earlier). Also, be sure to hit apply after you change that or the changes won't take effect. If you're still getting problems, you must have some sort of issue with the DLL.

ruslanm

01-19-2007, 02:56 PM

So, you want me to keep location same as it's now and set flag "different" to "NO"?
That's not possible: once I change this flag, simulator copies the MIF directory location from Applet directory and disables these fields. If I change MIF directory location afterwards, the flag is set to "YES" automatically.
If I play according your rules, the thing just doesn't work: where do I put this MIF and DLL - doesn't matter, it just doesn't start. Looks like an obvious software bug in simulator, nothing else. What can be done with DLL if it's not even run?

bru

01-19-2007, 03:55 PM

ruslanm - If the simulator works good for every body, then why cant it just work for you. All you need to do is patiently do step by step.

From beginning

1.keep myapp.mif under "C:\Program Files\BREW 3.1.5\sdk\examples\"
2.keep all the project files under "C:\Program Files\BREW 3.1.5\sdk\examples\myapp" (make sure you have myapp.dll under this)
3.Set your applet directory as "C:\Program Files\BREW 3.1.5\sdk\examples"
4.Uncheck the "Specify your MIF directory" checkbox.(this will set the path as in step 3 internally.
5.Close the simulator.
6.Open and launch the myapp.

Make sure your directory name, mif , dll are all same.

ruslanm

01-22-2007, 11:11 AM

But the confusing point is, that I have to show MIF and APPLET directories in BREW simulator as the SAME, when in reality they are NOT: MIF is one stage above. And this is called "A BUG".
Thanks anyway.

max

01-22-2007, 12:30 PM

No, it's not a bug. The applet directory is the directory containing BREW applets. This corresponds to the mod directory on a BREW 3.x device. Applets are stored in subfolders within the applet directory.

The MIF direcotry is the directory containing BREW MIFs. This corresponds to the mif directory on a BREW 3.x device.

bru

01-22-2007, 01:01 PM

ruslanm,
This method is for the newbies. As the time goes, when they understand, then they can play around with the directory structure. I dont use the way explained here because I know this from 5+years.

You can have just single folder anywhere to run the application. Only thing is to set the path accordingly. But if you want to compile with VC++ , then project setup should be set accoringly because the inc,binaries for BREW are in SDK folder(this is not recommended for normal development).

Greetings, all.

I've developed a little interface of sorts for my project. Its basically just a simple module structure with a central ModuleManager class moving each module in and out of memory as needed. So far, it's mostly blank, but the basics are there. Now, I'd like to test it to see if it works, but the BREW Emulator is giving me trouble. When I run the emulator for BREW 2.1, the application hangs when I try to start it. When I run the emulator for BREW 3.1, it warns me that "the application has been disabled", and asks if I want to re-enable it. When I select "yes", it hangs. What sort of thing causes this? Thanks for your help.

Sincerely,
Joseph Falcone

I am trying to get the BREW SDK 3.1.5 simulator to run the example apps. I can run the screensaver app, but the rest of the apps produce the error “This application has been disabled. Would you like to restore it? And selecting the left soft key for yes or the right soft key for no does the same thing, nothing.

Do the apps in the simulator need sig files to be able to run?

Hi,

I did this and got rid of the "THE APPLICATION WAS DISABLED TO SAVE SPACE. WOULD YOU LIKE TO RESTORE IT NOW?" message:

This message occurs when the simulator can not find the .dll. You can try the following:

1. Go to Project->Settings->general and clear text from output text box. This will place the .dll in your working directory and not the debug directory

2. Make sure the directory structure is correct. If you do not specify the MIF directory(default) then it should be as follows:
<Applet directory>/<appname>.MIF
<Applet directory>/<appname>/<appname>.mod .bar etc...

3. Make sure that all files and directories are lowercase(including .dll). 3.x is case sensitive.

Now I have another problem. when I try to execute the app I get the message "Unable to start application". Can anyone help me with this?

The error is shown in the attachment.

Thanks,
Alex
