Re: Technology Preview: MADDE

Hi Daniel, thanks for the update! How about some Qt 4.6 love? It's now in beta, so the Maemo5-specific API should be stable enough. Fixing bug 7773 along the way would help too... :)

Re: MADDE vs Scratchbox

Scratchbox:

works only on Linux
needs a Virtual Machine with Linux on it if you want to develop on other host OSes
brings an N900 emulator (even though people are quick to point out that it's...

Re: QMaemo5InformationBox Text Color

I noticed this bug myself, but forgot to report it because I was in the middle of something. Done now, you can track it here: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-7887

Re: How to compile Qt location example ?

I did all of that already and I'm happy to report that I successfully added liblocation support to my Qt application. Still, I find the example lacking, especially considering that it describes...

Re: How to compile Qt location example ?

Unfortunately, there isn't. The example consists of a single C file containing GTK+ code. :( I would also really like to know how to get the location info in a Qt application.

Re: Maemo 6 loosing source compatibility with plain Qt, and Symbian^4

dubik, you got me confused. You basically said that DUI and Orbit are both there to perform the same task (highly animated finger-friendly UIs). You also said that DUI will work on all platforms, be...

Re: Maemo 6 loosing source compatibility with plain Qt, and Symbian^4

They are, by and large, evil. That's why Stroustrup discourages the use of macros in particular and the preprocessor in general. That's why practically all newer languages got rid of the preprocessor...

Re: Maemo 6 loosing source compatibility with plain Qt, and Symbian^4

As someone else posted earlier in this thread: Isn't it too late then? Just look at libqt4-maemo5. A lot of things done there are Fremantle-only so Qt4.6-powered apps can be released for the N900 in...

Re: Qt 4.6 for beginners

There is a Qt plugin for Eclipse: http://qt.nokia.com/developer/eclipse-integration

Re: Qt 4.6 for beginners

If you are a total beginner, maybe Python would be an easier language to start with. Just google "Python tutorial" (or "C++ tutorial" if you want to jump directly into C++) and start having fun. :)

I asked him the same by email. But I guess qgil is on his way to Barcelona now. :) Anyway, I think that is the mailing list he meant.

Re: Maemo 6 loosing source compatibility with plain Qt, and Symbian^4

Yes. I already have the first two #ifdefs in my application just to get kinetic scrolling. And here is the best part: as far as I can gather, that's not even platform-specific code (works for all of...

Re: FingerScrollable in 4.6

And beware that currently, using kinetic scrolling in qt4-maemo5 crashes your app if the scrollarea has child widgets. This should be fixed in the next qt4-maemo5 update.

Re: Maemo 6 loosing source compatibility with plain Qt, and Symbian^4

And you don't see the problem with that statement? The goal of Qt is easy cross-platform development. The reason for Qt on Symbian, Maemo and WinMo is to be able to easily develop across these...

Re: Maemo 6 loosing source compatibility with plain Qt, and Symbian^4

Completely agree with the criticism. Obviously things need to be done differently depending on the platform. That's why I'm using a cross-platform library - to take care of those things for me. Why...
