Hi,
I develop KJava applications for N7650 device with JBuilder6 + Mobileset 2 + Series 60 MIDP SDK from Nokia. May I ask how can I start to develop Symbian C++ applications? Do I just need to download the Series 60 SDK for Symbian OS? How can I use C++ Builder to develop Symbian C++ applications? or I need to use VS.net? or VC++ 6.0 as .net deploys C# instead of VC++.
Moreover, once the Symbian C++ application is built and does it like KJava Jar file to be run on N7650? So, the application can be downloaded through OTA server?
Any suggested books for the Symbian OS programming? If I develop the application for P800, do I need to install another SDK?
Thanks for help.

Hi,
Welcome to the Symbian C++ forum, look around your questions are answered 😊... Please read the topics getting started and problems getting started. Also the books from 'keep an eye on this'..
Regards
i use vs.net without any problems but the devkit is designed for vc6 ...
I use VS .net as well.
There are separate versions for C++ and C# (or studio if you're rich 😊 )
You need the Series 60 SDK and an IDE (although as I understand you can use the command line without needing an IDE). The IDE used in MS Visual C++ 6.0, but people seem to have got it going with C++ Builder (not sure) and Visual .NET (more sure about this).
Also Symbian C++ applications arrive as several files, you might be able to download the SIS file OTA, but I don't know. I should really do some experiments with this.
The P800 needs a seperate SDK (in fact it also requires the Code Warrior IDE).
There's a book on Series 60 programming that has just been published. I hope to have a review of it here soon from someone who has read it / ordered it. There some other posts in this forum about this book.
😊 Rafe, you are going to experiment with OTA ??? Does that mean you have finally bitten the bullet and got a 7650 ?? 😉

I'm not doing anything to get one, but might call in some co-operation to help set up a limited OTA downloads from this site.

Would be good if you could let us know what you think. Perhaps publish a short opinion review?

You can order it and they sent it to your home address again for free! Try using another browser or something, or wait for the CD, or do both!
If you use a download manager, Nokia recommend turning it off(!).
(don't know how happy I'd be trying to download something that big over 56k without one though!)
