Hey all ... Well I've finally found some time to start trying to develop stuff for the N900, but there are some things which are confusing me which I need some assistance on ...
Firstly, I see there are two ways I can program for the N900: C++ and Python ... I've heard devloping using Python is somewhat easier, but since I dont know python and have been using c++ for 6-7 years now, I think C++ is the better option here ... Do you agree ?
Secondly, I'm trying to develop using Nokia's Qt technology, but there's a lot of jargon here on the forums which is confusing me. Can someone please clarify the difference between the following terms:
Qt 4.6 (or Qt 4.7) which is installed on the N900 ... Why is this need to be installed ? Are these the Header file libraries that would be used ?
Qt Creator and Qt Designer ... Isn't the latter part of the former ?
Nokia Qt SDK Framework .. How is this differenct from QT Creator ?
MADDE ... How is this related to the entire 'Qt' technology ?
PyQt ... I understand is for using Qt with Python, but this is an actual tool, or is it a name given to a group of programs (Qt Designer, Python, etc..), and is it an official Nokia bundle/program ?
As you can see, I'm just trying to piece together the terms right now, so I know what is being discussed when I search the forums ..
Lastly, if anyone knows any tutorial here on how to start developing Apps for N900 in C++ using Qt, please do post the link .. !
Thanks !
