Hi
I'm new to visual C++ and to mobile developement in C++.
I can't seem to find anything good on the MSDN about developing to mobile devices (Symbian).
for example about how to make sis files ...
or step by step making of a symbian C++ project .

where can I get such information ???

thanks in advance

Hey,

You can find information on building SIS files and programming on Symbian platform in general in the Symbian SDK documentaiton for the platform you are developing on. Sym,bian is not supported or in any way linked to Microsoft so Microsoft's documnetation (MSDN) does not contain any information on programming on Symbian platform.

thanks I will look at the sdk doc.

For information on how to get started, I suggest you check out this paper: http://www.symbian.com/developer/techlib/papers/cpp_gettingstarted.html. It is basically a step-by-step guide to creating a C++ application for UIQ on Symbian OS, and should provide you with the initial information you require.

For details on various APIs and tools, I suggest you check out the documentation that comes with the Symbian OS SDK you choose to work with (Series 60, 80, 90 or UIQ).
