Creating New Symbian OS C++ Projects

Select File > New > Symbian OS C++ Project to invoke the New Project wizard.

The New Symbian OS C++ Project wizard appears. Select a template related to an installed SDK.

A project template provides the initial source files and project settings appropriate for the chosen project type. A brief description of each template appears below the list. The project type determines the type of program that you are writing.

NOTE If the selected template requires user input, additional wizard pages will collect data from the user before creating the project.

Checkmark the Filter templates based on enabled SDKs option to only list SDKs enabled in the Symbian SDKs panel. Uncheck this option to list SDKs that can be used with Carbide. Click Next.

Enter a name for your project.

Checkmark the Use default location option to save the project in the current workspace by default or uncheck it to save to another location. Enter the path in the Location field or click Browse button to locate the directory. Click Next.

Select the SDKs and Build Configurations.

Checkmark the Filter SDKs based on selected template option to only show build configurations based on the selected SDK template, or uncheck to show all enabled SDKs and their related build configurations.

The Symbian OS SDKs wizard page shows a tree of the SDKs and the type of builds available within that SDK. Select a single SDK if the program you are developing is for just one version of a platform, or select multiple SDKs to build the program for multiple build platforms or SDK versions.

Carbide.c++ builds the project. A build dialog and a task bar appear during a build process. All build output is shown in the Console view while build errors and warnings appear in the Problems view.

Whether a full build or incremental build is requested, Carbide forwards the request to the SDK make system. The SDK make system determines if anything needs to be built. Carbide always checks that makefiles are up-to-date and - dependencies present.

Project is also built if you make a change to it and then click Debug. It may be useful to automatically save modified resources before a manual build process by enabling the Save automatically before build option in the Window > Preferences > General >

Workspace preference panel.

NOTE If you want to turn off building before launching, uncheck the Build (if required) before launching option in the Window > Preferences > Run/Debug > Launching preference panel.

When performing a build, output is displayed in the Console window. If you do not want to clear the console before each build you need to uncheck the option Always clear console before building in the Build Console panel. This option is enabled by default. You can access this panel by selecting Window > Preferences > C/C++ > Build Console preference panel (figure 2).

You can access this panel by selecting Window > Preferences > C/C++ > Build > Build Console preference panel (figure 4).

Not clearing the console is useful when you are performing multiple builds, such as a regular project build, building a project package (.pkg) file, and building a ROM image. For example, if you do not clear the console before each build, then a subsequent build will not overwrite information from a previous build.
