The easiest way to achieve this is using our Symbian Installer post
linker. You would have to choose the Symbian Installer as the post
linker and specify the the file name for sis file.
Normally the post linker should add all the necessary files to the sis
file.
In case there are more files that need to go into the sis file and are
not part of the project, then you can use the makesis utility from the
SDK to build the sis file..For this, you would have to create pkg file
and run makesis on the pkg file..
For more details on makesis and the pkg file format, the you can refer
to the SDK documentation.
Developer Library > Tools and Utilities > Installation reference
Also I have a sample pkg file. if you would like it drop me a note. it
is pretty small.
