Even though this is likely to make me the most-hated person in the Nokia world, all developers should read this PSA carefully before updating to Carbide.c++ 2.4.
I have just updated to the product, and have to report that it is extremely unreliable and has loads of errors. I will post more about some of them in the next few hours – in the mean time, PLEASE stick to Carbide.c++ 2.3 and Qt 4.6.1…

Tam,
Thank for flagging this. Please be sure to log any bugs in Bugzilla and send the bug numbers to me.
Here are known issues that I think are fixed/being fixed.
* Update site – early reports from users who had problems updating from v2.3 to v2.4. I believe this was isolated and now works.
* New WINSCW compiler. For most users this compiler is fine. Some older DLL in AVKON apps don’t work with the old compiler so you need to revert to the old compiler. We don’t think this will affect community users but if it does please log a bug.
* Qt – Qt build and project system is different than Symbian. v2.5 should have some usability improvements with Qt awareness in Carbide. I know that we have problems when the .PRO file is touched.
Version 2.5 is nearly done – you can take a look at:
