I sympathize with you. The learning curve of the API indeed was insane. For example, here’s a description of its at least 8 different string classes (the intro mentions 7, but doesn’t mention RBuf) that you had to know about: https://www.developer.com/mobile/mastering-symbian-os-descriptors/ https://www.developer.com/mobile/mastering-symbian-os-descri... (and that’s way better documentation than I remember seeing at the time)
- inglor_cz 2y agoIt seems that every single Symbian development team that I knew developed their own wrapper around the insane Bufs. What a loss of productivity, to do the same thing again and again.
