Family photo -- the team that built Carbide.c++ (well, save for about 5 people who were elsewhere at the time / behind the camera).
Carbide.c++ Professional & Developer have been released. Watch for the press release next week-- but you can already download the products from Forum Nokia. They ship with a 21-day trial license, after which you can purchase the product license at the Forum Nokia webstore.
Product downloads
Professional - If you work on challenging Symbian C++ projects and use R&D SDKs / DevKits
Developer - If you're new to Symbian OS or develop solely against public SDKs from S60, UIQ
The key features improving productivity are on-device debugging for S60 and UIQ phones, performance analysis for the same, and a UI designer for S60 v3. Add to that the extendable Eclipse tool platform we built the product on, and the result is, I think, a great tool with a bright future. My hope and expectation is that if you've developed for Symbian OS before, you're going to love the productivity gains you'll experience with the product. So far, it seems, developers tend to agree -- which warms my heart to no end. Check out these early comments:

Here's a tip for searching directories outside the current Carbide.c++ workspace.
The basic idea is to set up a set of linked directories that point to the directories you commonly want to search. This can be done either within an existing project or by creating a separate project. This post shows the steps involved for the latter approach.
UI Designer projects contain a set of files with the .uidesign extension. There's one for each screen in your application and there's always one called application.uidesign. This file drives the creation of the CAknApplication, CAknAppUi, and CAknDocument subclasses. It also has some settings that are common to all the screen designs.
