Comment Re:Will this work with the Nokia Series 60 SDK? (Score 0) 541
Sure it's off topic, but what the hell...
You can already use the free MSVC Toolkit with the Series 60 SDK, so no need to send more money to MS :) Here's what I found I had to do:
1. Install Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/vctoolkit 2003/
2. Install the Core SDK component of the Microsoft Platform SDK.
http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platform sdk/sd kupdate/
3. Install ActivePerl 5.6.1.
http://www.activestate.com/Products/Active Perl/
NB. The latest ActivePerl version doesn't seem to work.
4. Install the required Symbian SDKs.
5. Copy the NMAKE 1.5 files NMAKE.EXE and NMAKE.ERR into the Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 bin directory.

6. Create a file called bscmake.bat in the Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 bin directory with the following contents:
@echo Skipping bscmake
7. Create a file called bscmake.exe.bat in the Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 bin directory with the following contents:
@echo Skipping bscmake
8. Create a file called dumpbin.bat in the Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 bin directory with the following contents:
@link /dump %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
9. Create a file called dumpbin.exe.bat in the Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 bin directory with the following contents:
@link /dump %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
10. Create a file called lib.bat in the Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 bin directory with the following contents:
@link /lib %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
11. Create a file called lib.exe.bat in the Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 bin directory with the following contents:
@link /lib %1 %2 %3 %4 %5 %6 %7 %8 %9
You should then be able to build any of the examples from the command line by:
1. Opening a Visual C++ Toolkit 2003 command prompt.
2. Changing directory to a "group" directory under a Series 60 example (the dir that contains the bld.inf file).
3. Run 'bldmake bldfiles'.
4. Run 'abld build wins udeb'
5. Run 'epoc -wins' to start the emulator.
You can use the Debugging Tools for Windows (can be installed as part of the Platform SDK), but if you want a prettier front end for debugging try something like Borland C++BuilderX Personal.
