Nokia Unveils Significant Productivity Enhancements to Eclipse-based Carbide.c++ Developer Tools

Nokia today announced the immediate availability of new developer productivity and cost-savings enhancements to its Carbide.c++ next-generation development tools for Symbian OS(TM), the market leading operating system for smartphones. Providing significant new functionality with device navigation utilities and time-saving project build tools, the Carbide.c++ tool enhancements accelerate mobile application development and lower overall costs for a broad range of software projects by slashing programming hours and collapsing development time.

Announced today at the Nokia Applications Summit & S60 Summit 07, the new enhancements to the family of Carbide.c++ tools enable developers to effectively address increased project resource requirements and management difficulties that accompany the growing scale, complexity and risks associated with today’s cutting-edge mobile application projects. Developers will also find advanced Performance Investigator tool functionality in Carbide.c++ V1.2 Developer and Professional Edition that delivers greater visibility into critical power consumption and memory usage early in the development process.
