S60-SDK3 not present in list of SDKs

[Zdenko61]

Hi,

I am not able create Symbian project because "No SDKs were found".
I have all wins sdk and I have S60 3.0 winscw SDK (S60-SDK-0548-3.0-f.3.215f).
If I select Window->Preferences and Carbide.c++->SDK preferences I see all wins SDKs (and error text stating: No build configurations available for this SDK).
This is expected since I do not have winscw SDK.

Problem is why I do not see S60 3.0 on the list?
I see following items:
S607650
S60FP3
S80

Click on "Rescan Now" does not help.

Carbide.vs 2.0.1 has recognised S60 SDK 3.0. Since it does not support debuging using emulator I have to use Carbide.c++.

Can you please post your devices.xml file?

Why do you say that Carbide.vs does not support emulator debug? It should. Do you have a problem or did you just not yet try it?

I'm having the same problem. I've installed S60_SDK3 but I can't create the S60 project becoz of "No SDK found"!

[mitts]

Do you have English or non-English Windows installations?

[Zdenko61]

I have not tested debuging. When I select SDK in new project type, WINSCW is checked but WINS is not checked (since it is grey it is not possible to check it).
My assumption was that debuging will not work in Visual Studio. I have tested it and it works.
Thanks.

BTW.
Is there any reason yo use Carbide.c++ (Eclipse) instead of Carbide.vs (Visual studio)?

English SDK, English Windows XP

Do you have English or non-English Windows installations?

I do not have devices.xml file in Carbide directory.
I have found "lastKnownSDKList.xml" in Carbide\configuration\com.symbian.cdt.sdk directory.

This is content of file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?><sdks><sdk buildConfig="unsupporetedSDK" enabled="true" epocRoot="C:\Symbian\6.1\Series60" id="S607650" isManuallyAdded="false" name="com.nokia.s60sym6"/><sdk buildConfig="unsupporetedSDK" enabled="true" epocRoot="C:\Symbian\8.1a\S60_2nd_FP3" id="S60FP3" isManuallyAdded="false" name="com.nokia.s60fp3"/><sdk buildConfig="unsupporetedSDK" enabled="true" epocRoot="C:\Symbian\7.0s\S80_DP2_0_SDK" id="S80" isManuallyAdded="false" name="com.nokia.s80"/></sdks>

Can you please post your devices.xml file?

Zdenko61, Matt's question was related to Carbide.c++.

There are a number of reason to use Carbide.vs as well as Carbide.c++.

Carbide.c++ is the long term Nokia tools strategy so getting to know and use it certainly prepares you for where the Nokia/Symbian C++ tools are going. Expect to move to Carbide.c++ sooner or later for higher productivity and new features.

Also if you use Eclipse for other things, Carbide will be a very good choice as skills for Symbian and your other work will nicely support each other. Carbide also has a build system for target building that is not based on the SDK and is very resilient + the debugger is very good for Symbian work.

Carbide.vs is the good choice mainly if you use VS for other work. Also a few SDKs (such as the FP2 langauge kits for eg Chinese) are only supported on Carbide.vs as they are WINS SDKs.

Zdenko61,

The devices.xml file can probably be found in your Program Files\Common Files\Symbian folder.

bikerzon,

Are you sure you have the CodeWarrior/WINSCW 3.0 SDK installed? That's the one that Carbide.c++ wants. If so, please post your devices.xml file from c:\program files\common files\symbian.

I do not have devices.xml file in Carbide directory.
I have found "lastKnownSDKList.xml" in Carbide\configuration\com.symbian.cdt.sdk directory.

Hi Z - I can't tell if you either have installed S60 SDKs that we don't support (you should installl the versions for CodeWarrior/WINSCW) or you have modified your devices.xml after the install. For standard support of SDKs you should not modify your device entires for the SDKs that Carbide supports.

Cheers,
Tim

I am talking about "S60 3rd Edition SDK for Symbian OS, for C++".
When I go to S60 SDK download page there is ONLY ONE available SDK (English):
(Text in combo)
SDK for 3rd Edition (262 MB)

Here is devices.xml

Hi Zdenko - I cut and pasted your content into C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symbian\devices.xml

then fired up Carbide.Express. When looking at the SDK Preferences they all show up with a Build Configuration listed for each SDK in the "SDK Information" text box.

If you put your devices.xml in the location above do you still not see the SDKs listed in the SKD Preferences page?

If you still have trouble pull down Window > Show View > Other > PDE Runtime > Error Log and see if there are any related errors there to give some diagnostics.

Hi Tim,

Problem is solved.
I have dual boot and two installations of XP (C: and F.
VS, CarBide, Symbian SDKs are installed on both versions. Problem was when I was using Carbide from F: partition.
Even system, VS and Carbide are on the F: partition, Carbide reads devices.xml from C: partition.
Runing XP from first partititon interfered somehow.

I have copied devices.xml from:
F:\Program Files\Common Files\Symbian\
to:
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symbian\
and it works now.

(I am sure that I posted devices.xml from C:\Program Files\Common Files\Symbian\, but it seems that I posted version from F:\Program Files\Common Files\Symbian\. No other logical explanation exists).
