==============================================================================
Using the Simple DirectMedia Layer with S60 3.x / Symbian 9.x
==============================================================================

These instuctions are for people developing for S60 3.x. S60 3.x
uses Symbian OS so you need S60 SDK.

extract "symbian.zip" into this folder.

go to symbian folder

bldmake bldfiles
abld build

That produces WINSCW and ARMV5 versions of sdl.dll runtime library 
and sdl.lib for development. 

Eaudiolib.lib and dll are generated as well, and must be delivered
along SDL as it uses it for audio.

There are certain problems with GCC compiler when building for
target, it may compile or binaries are buggy - please use RVCT
compiler as it works and produces far more effient code.

Its likely that SDL application should be integrated into S60 
work and behave well there. So there is CSDL class (sdlepocapi.h)
to make this easy. If you do porting from other system, then 
implement a S60 application and use CSDL class, they you may
not need to modify original SDL code at all!
