This tutorial takes a practical step-by-step approach to learning UIQ and Symbian OS through an example project (a UseNet reader). The main sections are:
Development basics supplies the essential context for development, including a look at the tools, comparisons with other platforms, and potential issues and problems.
Building and running shows how projects are defined, and how to use the Borland C++BuilderX and Metrowerks CodeWarrior IDEs to build them, and how to run applications on both emulated and real targets.
in The application engine, some basic APIs are described, including how text is manipulated, how events are handled, and some comms fundamentals.
in The application GUI, the basics of graphical applications are covered. This brings in the graphics facilities, the basics of the UIQ GUI, and practicalities such as using the resource compiler to specify the elements of a graphical user interface.
