The S60 3rd Edition C++ Developer's Library (CDL) is a complete package with introductory, getting started, technology area, and API-level information. As well as giving an overview to the technology, the library includes references to example applications using the APIs.
This library supports S60 3rd Edition, 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1 and 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2. The library is available in HTML format online, as a stand-alone version, or as an Eclipse plug-in.
You can search for text in the whole library or only in topics you are interested in.
To search for text in all topics:
Type the text to be searched in the Search field.
Click the GO button. The search results are shown in the Search Results tab.
You can also limit your search to include only topics in selected libraries or library sections by clicking Search scope.
You can use search expressions according to the following examples:
touch or copy = touch OR copy finds topics containing at least one of the search items.
touch and copy = touch AND copy = touch copy (with a space between the searched items) finds topics containing both search items.
"Touch UI" finds topics containing the exact search phrase Touch UI.
It's recommended that you use the Quick reference to locate APIs in the C++ API reference.
The top of the right pane shows the current topic's location in the table of contents hierarchy, enabling you to navigate to the desired level in the hierarchy.
Use the Go Back and Go Forward buttons on top of the right pane to navigate within the history of viewed topics. The Link with Contents button on top of the left pane keeps the table of contents synchronized with the current topic. Use the button to toggle automatic synchronization on and off.
To print the currently displayed topic, click the Print Page button on top of the right pane.
