SYTEMINCLUDE     \epoc32\include\libc

c) The import library estlib.lib is the C standard library.

LIBRARY          estlib.lib

4:

Call yourFunction( ); from C++ file. This C++ file should have the “.h” of the “c” file.

5:

This is only for console based, rest of the steps are same. For, Console based application (i.e., for .exe ) The project also links to ecrt0.lib. This file provides the E32Main() entrypoint for a “.exe”

STATICLIBRARY   ecrt0.lib
