During last weeks I’ve took part in FN Wiki November Contest. Yeah it would be cool to have N95 here, in Sevastopol :-) However we’ll wait till the results.

I decided to contribute to Wiki with the articles and the examples of what I’ve learned about Symbian programming.

I want to post here some articles that are related to my blog.

The code bookmarks in Carbide.

Carbide is designed to make development process more effective. Here is one feature which is inherited from Eclipse and which I like. It is a Bookmarks feature.

It lets you to mark any line in your source code assigning a description. After that you can navigate to it with help of a bookmarks dialog.

You can put a bookmark simply pressing right mouse button on a line numbers tab.

Diagram 01 – Standard way to add bookmarks.

But it is more comfortable to assign a hotkey.

To assign a hotkey, go to Windows->Preferences. In filter text type “keys”. Select “Modify” tab. At “Command” section pick “Edit”. As a “name” pick “Add bookmark”. At the next “Key sequence” section press a key combination (I chose ALT+B). Press 'Add' button.

Now you can press Alt+B at any line to bookmark it.

Diagram 2 – Assign a hotkey.

You can assign a hotkey to show Bookmarks window.
To do that repeat the same actions but pick “Views” at “Category” dropdown. And then pick “Show view (view: Bookmarks)” at name section. Select key combination. I chose “CTRL+ALT+B”.
