<li><strong>Eclipse Debugger for C/C++</strong><strong> </strong>— Carbide now uses the <strong>Eclipse Debugger for C/C++</strong> (EDC) as its default debugger. EDC provided an entirely new Debug view with all of the standard debug features like variables, breakpoints, watchpoints, disassembly, and all the other views required to run a debugging session. In addition, EDC provides the framework to add new debug features like snapshots.</li> |

<li><strong>Improved UI</strong> — Carbide's UI has been streamlined and minimized to a core set of functionality, mainly that of creating Symbian projects, building and debugging them. Context menus have been reworked to show a minimum set of options. If your favorite option is missing, you can use the <strong>Capability</strong> preference panel or the <strong>Customize Perspective</strong> dialog to add favorite commands back onto the context menus.</li> |

<li><strong>Stack frames</strong> — in the Debug view stack frames were displayed once the symbol tables were completely read. For large symbol files this sometimes slowed down the display and hence the ability to continue debugging. Now the Debug view will show a subset of stack frames after a set time and update the remainder once it has finished scanning the symbol file.</li> |

<p>TRK: If you install the TRK app onto your phone's flash memory (Mass Storage) a Remote Connection may not find the TRK-service even though TRK is already connected to your PC. Workaround: Uninstall TRK then reinstall it onto your PHONE memory (C-drive). The TRK service should now be "Available".</p> |
