Carbide C++ 2.6 update released

While Qt is destined to become the main technology for future Nokia devices, with Nokia focusing his efforts into its recently released Nokia Qt IDE, Carbide C++ still represents in most cases the primary choice for native Symbian development.

Carbide C++ 2.6 has just been released, with the major improvements in the added support for GCCE 4.0 and Symbian^3. Bug fixes include:

GCCE4 support requires using a SBSv2 build alias (-c parameter) of armv5_udeb_gcce or armv5_urel_gcce. As of this writing, these aliases were not available in the SDK or SBSv2, but will appear in some future version. Carbide versions prior to 2.6 do not support GCCE4.
Users should consult the SDK documentation for GCCE and SBSv2 issues and installation requirements.
TRK: If you install the TRK app onto your phone’s flash memory (Mass Storage) a Remote Connection may not find the TRK-service even though TRK is already connected to your PC. Workaround: Uninstall TRK then reinstall it onto your PHONE memory (C-drive). The TRK service should now be “Available”.

The update is available through the standard Software Update mechanism.
