Following sample code illustrates how you could use CAknMessageQueryDialog to show your application’s about dialog. With the example the about text is defined as constant literal (you could use other ways as well) and the about dialogs title is set to show the application’s name:

Source code

_LIT(KtxAbbout, "My application and its version \n\n" \
                "Copyright me 1999-2007, All right" \
                "reserved.\n\nemail:\nme@mymail.com\n" \
                "Homepage:\nwww.myhome.com");
_LIT(KtxApplicationName	,"My Application");
 
 
HBufC* Abbout = KtxAbbout().AllocLC();
CAknMessageQueryDialog* dlg = CAknMessageQueryDialog::NewL(*Abbout);
dlg->PrepareLC(R_ABOUT_HEADING_PANE);
dlg->SetHeaderTextL(KtxApplicationName);  
dlg->RunLD();
 
CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy(Abbout);

Resource definition

RESOURCE DIALOG r_about_heading_pane
	{
	flags=EEikDialogFlagNoDrag |EEikDialogFlagCbaButtons |EEikDialogFlagWait;
	buttons = R_AVKON_SOFTKEYS_BACK;
	items =
		{
		DLG_LINE
			{
			type = EAknCtPopupHeadingPane;
			id = EAknMessageQueryHeaderId;
			control = AVKON_HEADING
				{
                               headinglayout = R_AVKON_LIST_HEADING_PANE_POPUPS;
				};
			},
		DLG_LINE
			{
			type = EAknCtMessageQuery;
			id = EAknMessageQueryContentId;
			control = AVKON_MESSAGE_QUERY
				{
				message = "";
				};
			}
		};
	}
