I installed many Series 60 SDk and also installed VC++ but for some reason the when I click New in the IDE, under the projects tab the VC++ IDE does not show the Series 60 AppWizard link. While My friend has used the same CD and it is awailable and working on his comp. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the whole VC++ and SDK's several times and also I have checked by changing the default SDK. Kindly please help me get the Series 60 AppWizard2.0 in the new projects.
Listed below are the default SDK's

Series60_v20:com.nokia.series60 - default
Series60_v2_1:com.nokia.Series60_2_1
Series60_v21_CW:com.nokia.series60
Series60_2_0_CW:com.Nokia.Series60_2_0_CW

Hi Friends,

I found out the solution myself ....there are two files named as AvkonAppWiz.awx and AvkonAppWiz.hlp which you need to copy in the "c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MsDev98\Template". folder once you have done that the Wizard icon starts to appear in the New/project tab .... for better grip read the pdf called "Series 60 AppWizard � Installation & User�s Guide " awailable on the net or in your sdk help.

Thanks for your support

Is there an update to this link? It seems to have moved... 😮

I am new in this category of programming... I have read the Getting Start document
the Appwizard is not found in the path that is mentioned... it doesn't found in the whole plattform ... from where I can get it

The AppWizard is in the Microsoft Visual C++ versions of the SDK and works only with Visual C++ 6 (not Visual Studio.NET/Visual C++.NET).

hi friends,
Please help me out me out.....i have encountered this problem at the very last stage.

I have compiled my project in the release mode and debug mode both and my compilation has been successful.

however when i try to run the program on the emulator,nothing happens when i click on the icon.

I tried to convert my package file into a sis file.Even tried doing the same for the helloworls application to check.
but on the dos prompt i get the following error:

error:file not found

i have used the MAKESIS command and specified the .pkg file.
even tried by specifying the full path but nothing happens.

could u pls tell me how i should remake my package file?
or recompile

i'm using:
windows xp
vc 6.0
perl
jdk 1.4

my vc++ files are in:
C:\Symbian\7.0s\Series60_v20\Epoc32\BUILD\SYMBIAN\7.0S\SERIES60_V20\SERIES60EX\BLUETOOTHPMP\GROUP\BLUETOOTHPMPEXAMPLE\WINS

but my sdk files which were self generated are in
C:\Symbian\7.0s\Series60_v20\Series60Ex\BluetoothPMP

maybe the path in my .pkg file is incorrect.tell me where exactly should the application be.

please suggest some solution URGENLTLY

thanx

hi people.

forgot to mention that i also get the following error at the dos prompt when i give the full path
error: cannot open file.check filename and access rights

the filename and path are correct i've checked that

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

Hello, All!

I'm using folowing tools:
1. Visual Studio .NET 2003
2. Series 60 SDK 2.1 for Symbian OS Supporting Microsoft Visual C++ .NET

Configuration is DEBUG Wins, program for run is C:\Symbian\7.0s\Series60_v21\Epoc32\release\wins\udeb\epoc.exe

I want to debug program under emulator, but after run I have got a message "'epoc.exe' does not contain debugging information. (No symbols loaded.) Click OK to debug anyway."

What's wrong in my actions?

Nick.

Hello.

Uninstall SDK and install it in other folder. I think that this is problem with Perl - does not recognize folder with long name. I am not sure about this, but I tryed this and it works.

Sorry for my bad english.

I do have the same problem....How did u fix it Mohith????

Did you find the solution and could you share this?

Please...

:icon4:
when i write

abld makefiles vc6

:icon4:
it give me reply as

make -r -f "\Symbian\7.0s\Series60_v20\EPOC32\BUILD\VC6.make" MAKEFILE VERBOS
E=-s
Nothing to do

can anybody tell me how can i create workspace for MS-VC++ IDE

I alredy installed Win 2000 SP4 + Visua studio 6.0 + Visual Studio .NET

Thank You.

I faced the similiar problem. I was able to correct after multiple tries.

We need to set the following paths into the path variable of the environment variable.

1. Add the path of perl\bin folder to PATH
2. Add the path of VC98 - link.exe path to PATH
3. copy MSPDB60.DLL from Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\MSDev98\Bin to Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Bin folder
4. Make sure that your EPOCROOT is set to right folder

Once you do the above changes, it should work fine.
