Top Five Rules for Symbian/S60 newbies!
vin2ktalks
Never give up in the first month!
Never give up when you can not get anything after effort. Effort will
show you effect in the next month. Symbian=Simple, thats the thing, but
not simple in beginning. After beginning, everything is simple.
Rule No. 2
Symbian is an Euro Guy, Not Uncle Sam!
Symbian/Series60 is a totally native of Europa, which locates in the
other side of the Atlantics. So *DO NOT* thinking in Windows, *DO NOT*
thinking in MSDN, *DO NOT* thinking in MFC, even STL and Standard
C/C++. A pure background without experience in Windows platform may be
helpful, like an idiot in MFC/Win32.
Rule No. 3
SDK Documents = THE HOLY BIBLE!
The SDK Documents will answer your 80% questions. And examples could
help you for these answers in practice.
Rule No. 4
