What does the error mean?

C:\Symbian\6.1\Series60\

abld makefile vc6
Sorry, \epoc32\tools\abld.pl is not supported in this release. Please use a different
device. Use 'devices' to view the available devices.

What does it mean and how i can solve it? I want do build the *.dsp and*.dsw files for visual studio. Someone can help me?

You probably installed a S60 1ed FP1 Codewarrior & .Net.

The 'abld makefile vc7' will work in Visual Studio C++ .net.

When using the older Visual Studio C++ 6.0, install S60 1Ed FP1 Borland&MS. The 'abld makefile vc6' work there only.

Well one thing is you could start a new thread as this one is almost 3 years old now!!

What SDK are you using ? Are you trying to install Symbian 6.1 as the original thread is about? Chances are Carbide 1.2 might not be supporting it.

Also the error is mainly complaining perl I guess. You would need perl 5.6.1 build 635.

Also note if you are using commandline you would want to configure environment for winscw command line. This can be done by start->program->carbide1.2->configure environment for winscw command line
