cwimporter.pngNokia Codewarrior has a dummy but annoying bug: try to enter some text in the Alternate makmake name field when importing a MMP file and you won't be able to get rid of it. Each time you will import a new MMP file, you will have to clear manually this field as the text entered will probably prevent the correct import of your project.

To fix this, you will need to manually edit the Windows registry. Get your hand on your favorite registry editor and clear the value of the following entry:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Metrowerks\CodeWarrior\Symbian\Importer

Thanks to Tim Kelly for the tip!

I have to re-import the project ,
otherwise the mmp file isnot built in the new way which I want.

is that a BUG?

No. That's a "feature" !
Carbide.c++ can detect change in MMP automatically however.
