      Development environment installation guide on the example of Symbian 9.2

      Tested on Windows XP и Windows 7. Installation of other SDK versions should be similar.

      Java Runtime Environment (JRE)

      Download from http://https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/2133151 or http://java-runtime.ru/download. It's better to install 5.0 version, because emulator settings don't work with newer java versions. Download link: http://www.oldversion.com/windows/java-platform-runtime-5-0-update-5

      SDK

      http://www.mediafire.com/file/9uc7fjb2ynmxlud/s60v3.1_SDK.zip/file. Emulator needs activation, otherwise it works only in 14-days trial mode. To reset trial I wrote this bat-script. On Windows 7 and higher run as Administrator

      Open C/C++ Plugin

      (Optional installation) Provides ability to use standart C++ libraries (like stdio, iostream, string, etc.) https://ia800905.us.archive.org/7/items/nokia_sdks_n_dev_tools/s60_open_c_cpp_plug_in_v1_7_en.zip

      Carbide IDE

      http://www.mediafire.com/file/6z54qrceef73x9s/Carbide_cpp_v2_7_en.exe/file 2.7 – last version, which still supports Symbian OS 9.2. (If I remember correctly, Carbide 3.2 can works only with Symbian 9.3 and higher. (ToDo: refine))
