Yes Symbian C++ was a pain and the Codewarrior replaced by Eclipse with CDT (attempt 1), replaced by Carbide (Eclipse CDT attempt 2), augmented with PIPS, extended with Qt, on top of Perl and BASH scripts wasn't very fun to use, if at all.
Recall that Nokia blog post that was quickly removed, about only devs that get paid would develop for Symbian?
When version 3 came out I was expecting Symbian C++ would be replaced by proper C++, given the overhaul the system got for security support.
Yet, the OS itself with its mikro-kernel architecture, C++ instead of C, task based architecture and security model was quite interesting from OS architecture point of view.
The updated Belle version was quite a joy to use on my Nokia C6-01.
