Creating Carbide C++

April 05, 2007 Welcoming Mike & saying goodbye Posted by Markus Ahonen at 11:56 AM | Categories: General

I'd like to introduce to you the new product manager for Carbide.c++, Mike Trujillo. He will be taking over responsibilities for product strategy, feature definition, launch execution and all that other good stuff that comes with the turf -- starting now. I suppose most of this work will focus on Carbide.c++ 2.0, so if you have a great feature idea, let him know!

Mike is no stranger to Carbide.c++; he's worked with us for 2½ years as "the marketing guy", responsible for outbound marketing of Carbide.c++. You may have seen him at tradeshows -- or more likely, as the originator of some decidedly quirky emails :-)... He worked previously at Texas Instruments, and after a glass or two of wine will be happy to tell you the story of the little LFC connector he marketed back in the day.

Please welcome Mike and make him feel at home by sending him all your feature requests!

As for me, I've worked on Symbian C++ tools product management for 3½ years now, and have worked in Austin, TX for the last 2 years. We're now moving back to the motherland and in the process I'll be focusing on tools for themes, phone customization, and UI in general -- so Carbide.c++ UI Designer, Carbide.ui, and some other stuff will be my new playarea. In that sense this is not goodbye, since I'll still be on the hook for figuring out our UI design toolset. I'll probably pop back in this blog, or start another one.

Regardless, it's been good. As the dolphins said, "So long, and thanks for all the fish!"

Welcome Mike to Carbide.c++ world...
And for Markus, good luck for your future in the "motherland".

Welcome Mike!

Are you going to be coming to the S60 summit?

As Markus will tell you - I like to complain about today's generation. In my day... we did not instant message, or have to reveal our life story in a blog.

Well, times change and now you are witnessing my very first blog entry. I'm excited to be in my new role - even have to brush up on my programming (in a C++ class this week).

I am supposed to be in Spain for the S60 summit but my travel is not set yet - so depends on the ticket price.

I look forward to working with you all. (and I hope I'm posting this message in the right place...)

Welcome Mike!

And Markus, ping me someday when you are here in Helsinki, let's go to lunch or something.

Hi;
Could someone help me with this problem of Carbide.c++ and windows vista? Carbide will not even start on my windows Vista. It gives me this error: "An error has occurred. See the log file c:\Symbian\Carbide\workspace\.metadata\.log."

checking the log file, this unresolved message keeps repeating itself in the log file:

"MESSAGE Bundle update@plugins/org.eclipse.xsd_2.1.1.jar [149] was not resolved."

Thanks.

Isaac

Hi Isaac,

The answer is simple and easy, although you won't like it... Carbide.c++ 1.2 does not run on Windows Vista. The next release, targeted for end of 2007, will support Vista.

The answer is simple. From Windows Vista, find the Carbide folder. Right click on Carbide.c++.exe and choose "Run as administrator". To make your shortcuts work, right click on Carbide, click on properties and then the "Compatibility" page. Check "Run this program as an administrator" and bingo.

That's right..! U need to run it as ADMINISTRATOR man!

Thanks a lot, yes one need to run as an administrator to run carbide.

Thanks Guys, we need to set run as an administrator to run carbide.

S60 Open to new features
