An interesting snippet from qt4-devel

Well, looks like I have the answer for this: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?t=34579. Sorry for the duplicate.

Just wondering, qt4 apps are supported on diablo too right ? but what about telephony API , is it the same as in qt extended ?

a bit more generic question on the current (even cutting edge) state of Qt for N900.

How does the freshly released "Qt SDK 4.6.0 RC1" relate to the "Technology Preview for Maemo" ? I believe the latter is based on 4.5 still.

Also, does any of them contain the classes from the QtMobility project ?
If not, what's the best way forward to have them available in one or the other ? Any help/HowTo for it ?

What would be the best platform to start ? the SDK 4.6 RC1 or the Maemo specific Tech Preview ? What are (current) advantages to either of them for future proofing N9x0 developments ?

I can see the generic Qt bits are pretty well documented but the Phone related bits are still in heavy development, looking at the change dates in Git

I really would like to use the QtMobility classes, specifically the bearer class for my -planned- application. I rather not go too deep into the standard platform classes if I can avoid it. Unless I have to of course. But looking at what's on the table (and coming), I should have enough with Qt.

But it looks early in the game to 'want it all'. I'll certainly need help to put the pieces correct together, both on the SDK/development side and on the device side.
Thanks.

The recommendation is to use the official Qt 4.6 port. By doing this you are in the safe path for Fremantle, Harmattan and cross-platform development.

The short term disadvantage is that currently there some things missing and rough edges. But precisely by having real projects using these development files you can provide feedback to the Qt team, file bugs to them directly and influence the feature set, priorities, frequency of releases...

See the How to Provide Feedback Section at http://qt.nokia.com/developer/qt-for-maemo-developers . Your very technical and specific questions about the current and future versions of Qt 4.6 for Maemo are welcome there, where the Qt developers are following and active.

I posted on this forum instead to track where it leads :

aint this enought ?

I've left my same questions on the Qt Labs forum :

Let's see where things are going. I hope for the best, I really want to get down and dirty and create the stuff I need, allthough I realize the learning curve will be very steep and I'll need lots of goodwill of people to get me through ...
