1 Compiling SILC Toolkit for Symbian OS
2 =====================================
3
4 The SILC Toolkit works on Symbian OS. This document is intended for those
5 that want to compile the SILC Toolkit by themselves for Symbian OS, or for
6 Symbian OS emulator. The building environment expects Carbide.c++ and
7 WINSCW compiler for emulator target and GCCE (variant of GCC) for device
8 target. The SILC Toolkit has not been tested with other compilers or
9 build systems. The build environment expects MS Windows.

12 Requirements
13 ============
14
15 - MS Windows
16 - Carbide.c++ 1.2 or newer

19 Installing Build Environment
20 ============================
21
22 If you do not have a working Carbide.c++ and Symbian OS SDK environment
23 installed in your MS Windows system it needs to be done first.
24
25 1) Download the freely available Carbide.c++ from Nokia at
26 http://forum.nokia.com. The exact hyperlink location changes often, so
27 it is not referenced here. It is usually under "Tools and SDKs" link.
28
29 2) After installation a web browser is opened automatically by the
30 Carbide.c++ installer. Follow its instructions by installing the Perl,
31 CTags and the SDK. Perl and the SDK are required, but CTags is
32 optional and if necessary can be omitted.
33
34 3) The SILC Toolkit is generic C and C++ code and should work with any
35 SDK. If you don't have SDK already installed, install the latest
36 version you can find. The links to SDKs are found in the Carbide.c++
37 instructions after installation. If you already have SDK in your
38 system, you should use that.
39
40 4) After installation the environment should be ready for SILC Toolkit
41 building.
42
43
44 Building with Carbide.c++
45 =========================
46
47 After starting the Carbide.c++ you will need to import the SILC Toolkit
48 project. Go to File -> Import -> Symbian OS -> Symbian OS Bld.inf file,
49 and go to the extracted SILC Toolkit source tree and find symbian\bld.inf
50 file and import it. When Carbide.c++ asks for the Root Directory, select
51 the root of the extracted SILC Toolkit source tree, if not already
52 selected.
53
54 After importing the project it is immediately ready for building. By
55 default, it will build the following libraries:
56
57 silc.dll - SILC Core DLL
58 silcclient.dll - SILC Client DLL
59 silc.lib - SILC Core static library
60 silcclient.lib - SILC Client static library
61
62 Before building select the target for which you want to build. Possible
63 targets are Emulator or Phone with Debug or Release.
64
65
66 Using SILC Toolkit in Your Project
67 ==================================
68
69 When linking with SILC libraries your application will need to also link
70 the following Symbian libraries:
71
72 estlib
73 euser
74 insock
75 esock
76
77 You will also need to include the \epoc32\include\libc into your system
78 include path in your project, if not already included.
