[Helix-client-dev] Recommended IDE for helix development?

Hi,

oh yes, you can compile without Code Warrior!
I found instructions on the web on how to do it with Carbide and it worked. I only have some code related errors that I will post in another email (and that are not new because I've seen the same problem when compiling for 8.0a and it's about HXThread and some inconsistency...)

To compile with Carbide.c++ instead of Code Warrior one has to set some environment variables:
set CWFolder=C:\Program Files\Carbide
set MWLibraries=C:\Program Files\Carbide\plugins\com.nokia.carbide.cpp.support_1.0.0\Symbian_Support\Win32-x86 Support\Libraries\Win32 SDK
set PATH=%PATH%;C:\Program Files\Carbide\plugins\com.nokia.carbide.cpp.support_1.0.0\Symbian_Tools\Command_Line_Tools

That's all.

But nevertheless the question still remains: Are there any Project-Files for any IDE on top-level which include all modules? (For Code Warrior, what is the file extension? If there are any, can I convert them for use with VC or Carbide?)

Regards,
Siegfried Wagner.

You will require Code Warrior for building Helix for Symbian 8.1 and
onwards. You can get a trial version from forum.nokia

This includes the IDE as well as the compiler. You can't use VC for Symbian
SDK 8.1 or above.

Hi,

as I guessed, there are no snl-Files "generated" during build (I tried with
several, the last one was with HEAD).
But then I did another search for different vc related files, and this was
the result:
$ find . -name *.dsw
./common/import/zlib/contrib/asm386/zlibvc.dsw
./common/import/zlib/contrib/minizip/zlibvc.dsw
./datatype/aac/codec/fixpt/decoder/ipp/projects/visualc/aacdec.dsw
./datatype/aac/codec/fixpt/decoder/real/projects/visualc/aacdec.dsw
./datatype/h263/codec/HvVidFlt.dsw
./datatype/mp3/codec/fixpt/ipp/projects/visualc/mp3dec.dsw
./datatype/mp3/codec/fixpt/real/projects/visualc/mp3dec.dsw
./datatype/mp3/codec/fltpt/testwrap/towave.dsw

$ find . -name *.dsp
./audio/device/test/platform/symbian/greg2/group/GREG2.dsp
./common/import/zlib/contrib/asm386/zlibvc.dsp
./common/import/zlib/contrib/minizip/zlibvc.dsp
./datatype/aac/codec/fixpt/decoder/ipp/projects/visualc/aacdec.dsp
./datatype/aac/codec/fixpt/decoder/ipp/projects/visualc/testwrap.dsp
./datatype/aac/codec/fixpt/decoder/real/projects/visualc/aacdec.dsp
./datatype/aac/codec/fixpt/decoder/real/projects/visualc/testwrap.dsp
./datatype/h263/codec/HvVidFlt.dsp
./datatype/mp3/codec/fixpt/ipp/projects/visualc/mp3dec.dsp
./datatype/mp3/codec/fixpt/ipp/projects/visualc/testwrap.dsp
./datatype/mp3/codec/fixpt/real/projects/visualc/mp3dec.dsp
./datatype/mp3/codec/fixpt/real/projects/visualc/testwrap.dsp
./datatype/mp3/codec/fltpt/testwrap/towave.dsp

$ find . -name *.vcproj
./datatype/mp3/codec/encoder/mp3enc_x86asm.vcproj

So, this shows me, that there are some IDE-files in some modules but nothing
for the whole thing.
Am I right with that?

So, what would you suggest, to get an overview and to understand the whole
thing, and especially to get the symbian build compiled... (my new try was
now for Symbian 9.1 and also not successful).

Thanks,
Siegfried Wagner.

Hi,

First of all always reply all as their may be other people on the list
who may help, especially in my absence in this case.

Secondly the sln files should get generated when you build the checked
out code and you can use those to open the solution in the vc IDE. If
you are not getting the sln files even after the build then probably
Greg or Rishi might throw some light on this.

Hi,

now I'm really confused, because I'm not sure if you understood what I
want to do.

Right. In the Helix sources checked out from CVS aren't any of them.

VC7.

Ok, I know, that VC7 needs sln files. But where should they be if even
the dsw and dsp are not to find?
Are we talking about the same?

I'm trying to import the Helix sources in my VC7 IDE. I didn't do it yet
because I don't know how to do this without any sln or other project
files. That is my question.

Siegfried Wagner.
