Question:
When I develop a TCP/IP client program in a text shell or console - eg using the C standard library (ESTDLIB) or using CConsoleBase,
it refuses to complete the connection to the network. I have tested web within the full emulator, and it can access remote
web servers fine.
My code also works fine on a target device.
Answer:
The problem lies in the difference between text shells on the emulator and a real Symbian OS device. The console is trying
to bring up a dialog that it can't. The console lacks the Eikon environment that the dial up software uses to display the
'Connect to Internet' dialog that confirms the settings it will use.
Therefore the solution is to first run the full emulator, and uncheck the Internet control panel option 'Show connection
dialog' so that a connection can be established without any user interface being displayed.
Now when you use your text shell program, the connection will complete normally.
