The following files were created successfully sdlexe.dll, sdl.dll, sdlmain.lib, sdlexe.lib, sdl.lib under the directory? ?\epoc32\release\winscw\udeb
Step 4: Then I opened C:\S60\devices\S60_5th_Edition_SDK_v0.9\SDL-1.2.13\symbian\test , and ran maketest_symbianc.bat to make the symbian test cases.
Step 5: Then I imported bld.inf from C:\S60\devices\S60_5th_Edition_SDK_v0.9\SDL-1.2.13\symbian\test\test (testwin.mmp ), and build it and run it, the emulator crashed with the following message

Hi,

as far as I know, it is only possible to build SDL with the expensive ARM
compiler toolchain, the
GCCE provided by Symbian/Nokia doesn’t generate proper code for SDL on
Symbian systems.

But on the S60 contributor page, he says those issues are fixed now, better
check with him, if
no one else know any better.
