15 Minutes to Hello World

To get started with Carbide.c++, you will need a PC with at least a 1.8-GHz processor, 2 GB of RAM, and 300 MB of free disk space (2 GB of free space will be needed if you don’t already have an SDK installed). The PC can be running Microsoft Windows XP or Windows Vista Business. You will also need ActiveState ActivePerl-5.6.1.635.

For more information on the hardware and software requirements, see the release notes »

If you have this hardware, you can download and install Carbide.c++. The installation process is straightforward.

With Carbide.c++ installed, you might want to read the Carbide.c++: Introductory White Paper or view the Getting Started with Carbide.c++ Express Screencast, both of which will take you through the basics of creating, building, and deploying your first application.

Then consider reading the Carbide.c++ UI Designer White Paper to learn how UI Designer can help speed up development by creating application GUIs visually.

When your application is ready for testing, consider the On-Device Debugging with Carbide.c++ document or video. Both resources are designed to help you connect your device for on-device debugging and can guide you through the use of the debugging tools available in Carbide.c++. Finally, the document Analyzing Application Performance with the Carbide.c++ Performance Investigator and the video Getting Started with Carbide.c++ Performance Investigator provide helpful information on capturing and analysing information on a device’s consumption of resources such as memory, CPU, and battery.
