hello!
i spent couple of hours searching answer for this pity problem and can't find it. my question is simple:
can i create project in vs.net (not 2003) which will use symbian sdk 1.2 nokiaedition??? how???
i know there is appwizard in vs6 but i really don't know how can i start in .net?
thanks!
The Series 60 1.2 SDK application wizard will only work with Visual C++ 6. Microsoft has changed things so that wizards/templates made for VC/VS 6 are not compatible with VS.NET.

You can download and use Series 60 SDK 2.1 for .NET instead. It should work with Visual Studio .NET 2003. You can find the same from forum.nokia.com. A beta version of new SDK is also available through that site(60 SDK 2.1 beta).
But... can I develop applications for platform 1.2 usind 2.1 SDK? That's very important for me b'coz I want to run anything on my N-Gage with 1.2 😊
Cheers!
It will be difficult to use the 2.1 SDK to develop apps for 1.2. You would have to verify that every call/class/object/return code/library/etc. that you have and use in your app also exists and behaves the same in 1.2.
Most anything you develop on 1.2 should work on 2.0 and 2.1, though (as long as you stick to documented APIs).
In other words, newer releases are compatible with applications created for an older one, but vice versa is not true (if you use any features available only in the newer releases).
