How to write symbian application?

If you are familiar with the C++ language, it is fairly quick to learn how to write Symbian C++ applications for Nokia Series 60 devices. Compared with regular C++, Symbian C++ requires a complex build structure with a lot of resource files and configuration files. A good IDE tool hides those complexities, and hence, greatly reduces the Symbian C++ learning curve. I can recommend two Symbian C++ IDEs:

The Borland C++BuilderX Mobile Edition is available at
http://www.borland.com/mobile/cbuilderx/index.html.

The CodeWarrior Development Studio for Symbian OS is Nokia's Symbian C++ development tool. You can download and purchase it from the tools section in the Forum Nokia web site (http://www.forum.nokia.com/
).
