i have a devcert with full capabilities. one of the APIs i use requires
SwEvent capability.
i checked and confirmed from www.symbiansigned.com that my devcert includes
that capability.
however, i am still getting errors in calling the API. the API is for
capturing hotkeys. i keep getting KErrPermissionDenied.
?????

Hi
Its possible your process is trying to load a DLL which does not have the
capability of your process. If you really have ALL capabilities that is
likely - most Symbian DLLs have capability ALL-Tcb, so if your process has
Tcb, then it won't be able to load very much.
There is an easy way to find out.... follow the instructions in
FAQ-1344 How do I Enable Platform Security Diagnostics on the Symbian OS
Emulator?

application works fine.

btw, i've read and modified my MMP file for CAPABILITY keyword. however, i
don't know where to get the vendorid. i've simply put it as 1 since setting
it to 0 means it is not required for security checks (which i assume means
my exe won't have any privileges).
help??

The Vendor ID is just available for identification. It's not currently used
by Symbian OS, so won't have any effect on the application or how it runs.
I'd suggest leaving it set to zero unless you have an allocated vendor ID.
