Open C: FTP Client Example
This C/C++ code example demonstrates porting standard C software to the S60 platform. In this example, an open source FTP library (ftplib and qftp; released under GNU General Public License) written in C has been ported to Open C. In addition, a simple UI has been written in Symbian C++ to provide a GUI application. A document about porting experiences and example architecture is also included in the package. The updated version adds support for the GCCE compiler and Carbide.c++ v1.2 IDE. Main Symbian C++/S60 classes: CAknSingleNumberStyleListBox, CAknSearchField, CAknTextQueryDialog, CFileMan, StringLoader. C/Open C classes: connect, socket, setsockopt.

Porting to S60 Using Open C
This eLearning module provides students with the basic knowledge and skills they need to port C code to S60 using Open C. The module is intended for developers who have little or no knowledge of Symbian OS, but have some experience in using POSIX/GLIB APIs on other platforms. As well as the main presentation, this eLearning module also provides a practical demonstration of porting C code to an S60 3rd Edition DLL. The demonstration starts with some existing C code, which uses the GLIB libraries, and shows how to port it step by step to S60.

S60 Platform: Isometric Adventure Game Example
This C++ code example demonstrates isometric content creation and usage of standard C/C++ libraries. The example also shows how to structure memory usage and how game state and resources can be freed / restored during run time. The key audience is considered to be C++ game developers who have developed games for desktop computers and also want to expand to S60 devices. The generic game architecture design considerations for mobile platforms are applicable to all game developers, or those interested in becoming (mobile) game developers. The package includes a game design document. General isometric game development issues are described in the Designing Isometric Adventure Games document that is available at www.forum.nokia.com.

S60 Platform: Source and Binary Compatibility v1.6
This updated document addresses compatibility across different S60 platform releases — especially compatibility issues that application developers must take into account when moving up from previous S60 platform releases or targeting an application for multiple platforms. The document also discusses several development techniques that ensure better source and binary compatibility when applied, and reduce changes to source code if a compatibility break is unavoidable. The document has been updated to include information about S60 3rd Edition, Feature Pack 1.

S60 Platform: Porting from 2nd to 3rd Edition v1.1
This updated document provides guidelines and describes how to port S60 2nd Edition C++ applications to S60 3rd Edition. The main changes between S60 2nd and 3rd Edition are in the application base constructor (for skin changes), new application entry point, target type, application resource, registration, and security. The document has been written based on experiences from porting regular S60 2nd Edition C++ applications, such S60 Platform: POP/IMAP Example. There are code snippets from the example in the document for demonstrative purposes.
