Hi

I've been working on Qt extra libs for Maemo and uploaded them into extras-devel yesterday. Basically the libs offer Qt application developers easier access to Fremantle API's that are not available using normal Qt API's.

More info available from http://wiki.maemo.org/Maemo_Qt_Extra_Libraries

Since I don't have a N900 to test with, I'm asking for some help. If someone with N900 could try if the libs work on the device.

I uploaded a example application using the libraries tonight to extras-devel. The application main view consist of three buttons. One to change screen orientation and the other two to show Hildon banner and system note. Screen orientation changing can be set to automatic from the application menu.

You need to install the libs and the application using apt-get.

Code:
apt-get install qhildon-widgetcapabilities qhildon-systemcapabilities qhildon-notifications qmaemo-ext-libs-example
It also depends on libqt4-core, libqt4-gui and libqt4-dbus. I don't know if they're in the device already.

One warning in advance. At least when staring the application from scratchbox it doesn't start on the first try. Second one succeeds. If you feel unconfortable using unstable things, you might want to skip this test.

All feedback is appreciated.

Edit: Libs have been fixed the example doesn't segfault at start anymore
