Jo Stichbury & Mark Jacobs 
The Accredited Symbian Developer Primer 
Fundamentals of Symbian OS

This new book, first in the Academy series, is the official guide
to the ASD exam, priming candidates for the exam, explaining
exactly what they need to know.

The Primer explains the knowledge tested in the Accredited
Symbian Developer exam, identifying and explaining the topics
examined. Each of the exam’s objectives is succinctly described,
with the appropriate concepts explained in detail. Both standard
C++ and topics specific to Symbian C++, such as Symbian Types and
Declarations, Platform Secuirty, and Cleanup Stack, are
covered.

The authors are experts in the field of Symbian C++ and
contributed extensively to the design and creation of questions for
the ASD exam. Jo Stichbury is the author of Symbian OS Explained
and both authors are, of course, fully qualified Accredited Symbian
Developers.
