How to use menu builder files

You can incorporate Menu Builder files into the existing source and resource files of a non-MEAD application by #includeing within the application's source files.

The following table shows the six Menu Builder generated files that should be incorporated into your application's source:

File	Description
`menubuilder.mbld`	XUL statements defining a saved menu structure and the locations to where the source, resource and header files were generated to create this menu structure within a Symbian application.
`menubuilder.h`	Specific command `case` statements. `#include` this file within the `HandleCommandL` function of your supporting application's AppUI class, i.e. within its GUI `.cpp` file. This is a user editable file that may contain code that responds to menu item events.
`menubuilder.hrh`	User entered custom menu Command variables defined as an enumeration starting at 100. `#include` this file within your application's GUI `.hrh` and `.rss` files.
`menubuildermenu.ra`	Resource file representation of a designed menu `i.e. an implementation of r_menubuilder_menubar` `#include` this file within the body of your application's `.rss` file.
`menubuilderhkplain.ra`	Resource file representation of the plain hotkeys for a designed menu i.e. `HOTKEY` blocks `#include` this file within the `RESOURCE HOTKEYS plain` section of your application's `.rss` file.
`menubuilderhkctrl.ra`	Resource file representation of the `Ctrl` hotkeys for a designed menu i.e. `HOTKEY` blocks `#include` this file within the `RESOURCE HOTKEYS control` section of your application's `.rss` file.
`menubuilderhkshftctrl.ra`	Resource file representation of the `Shift+Ctrl` hotkeys for a designed menu i.e. `HOTKEY` blocks `#include` this file within the `RESOURCE HOTKEYS shift_control` section of a supporting application's `.rss` file

When Menu Builder files are included in this way, the Menu Builder can be used at any time to modify the menu of an application.
