Can someone post a short Tutorial on this?

Hi all..

When I am making a new project using the Series 60 AppWizard, I have 4 cpp files(and offcourse the header class description files ). As an Example

CSearchapp.cpp
CSearchui.cpp
CSearchcontainer.cpp
CSearchDocument.cpp

But as I saw some Examples in the SDK Documentation(Like BTDiscovery)
there is a class called XXview.cpp. My question is, is this view class necessary to work in the Epoc Framework?Or it is a developer'S choice?

It is really not very clear to me which classes and objects I should be working with (Like view class or Ui class)........can someone post a short tutorial that explains what which classes are doing and what kind of classes should be used for working in which kind of Methods and functions.
Like, if I want to add a function, which class I should add that function and how I will undersatnd that....an Overview on the EPOC Framework.

Thanx.... 😊

Althoug I thing you are confusing classes with source files I understand what you mean!

The View that you are refering to is the Container (Container is also called View). The contaner handles how the data is displayed in the screen.

Cahpter 8 of the Book will help you understand it a bit better!
