New project window

The New Project Wizard leads you through each of the steps necessary to configure a project for use with the Carbide.c++ UI Designer. The wizard consists of a series of pages, each of which collects information of a specified type. When you complete all of the pages, Carbide.c++ will create a new project using the settings you have specified.

To activate the New Project Wizard, select the File > New > Symbian OS C++ Project menu option as shown in Figure 1 to display the first page in the wizard. Continue through each of the pages using the Next button. The Back button allows you to return to a previous page in the wizard. The Cancel button will terminate the wizard without creating a project. The Finish button (when available) will terminate the wizard and create your new project.
