hi everyone
I got this problem while installing madde on windows xp
I downloaded the version 4 times but each time it reports the same error as follow:

and use the HashCalc mentioned my zwer to calculate hashes...

Danielwilms,

Thanks again for your help! For a while (and with a little bit of tinkering) I managed to have the 4.6 SDK toolchain 'installed' as mentioned in the post you gave me. I managed to 'sort of' use the QtCreator as well with that toolchain, but without the having the right context-sensitive stuff/help (which is pointed out to the wrong toolchain). I had to remove the first QMake build step and putting in a custom one instead, using the right qmake by using explicit paths. I was then able to use the window flags and for a while I kept writing on my app, even deploying to the device using mad developer. However, finally I realized that the dpkg building stuff now was broke (I guess since it will use the wrong qmake paths when the project was created), so I won't be able to create any packages. Am I back to using the scratchbox toolkits with esbox and stuff? Duh! I'm a little bit surprised that noone else here seems to be bothered by this problem in this thread, isn't it hard to make a useful n900 app. without having the window flags in the SDK? I mean, stacked windows is not very uncommon is it? Is there another way of doing it without using the flags?

Danielwilms, if you are still there and willing to help, I must have missed out or didn't fully understand that part on how to set the path variable properly. I did set it manually once in the madde terminal by prepending the path to the right qmake but I'm not sure if that really helped (I would have wanted mad pscreate to use the 4.6 qmake). The thread you linked to me was a little bit short on that last thing about setting the path. Have you or anyone else tried this and in such case how did it work out?

It's kind of depressing right now that I can't build a package for my application.

Hi,
I agree that the integration of the 4.6 beta packages is a bit hackish, and I will have a deeper look into the details. But it was just meant to test already the 4.6 packages, so to say a preview within a preview. Sorry for the inconvenience. But be aware that soon there will be PR 1.2 with Qt 4.6 integrated, which means as well that you will get a newer version of MADDE, which compiles against that rootstrap. That will make those things a lot easier and cleaner.

Daniel

Ok thanks Danielwillms, I'm sorry for being impatient! I'll just wait then (unless you find something even more hackish... ) ...And in the meantime I'll use the pre-setup ubuntu images under a VM. (I don't want to mess up my 64 bit 9.10 ubuntu) .

hehe...nothing to be sorry about it's a good thing will let you know, latest when a new update will be available

Now that we have PR1.2 SDK out with Qt 4.6, it would be nice to get a version of MADDE with support of 4.6 out as well. Let's face it, I think pretty much everyone is already using 4.6 and it's been a blocker to really use MADDE other than to just play around with it a little. At least, that's my experience with it.

I think the next version of MADDE will come with the release of PR 1.2, with Qt 4.6.

hi,
could someone who knows please add to the FAQ a section describing how to use additional libs/headers (ie not included with madde, eg librsvg2)?
i am familiar with "normal" cross compiling, but madde's design is not that simple.

I'm having a problem deploying a test application using MADDE/QtCreator.

I've set up the device following the wiki, however when I click Run I am getting the error, "Deployment failed: Error in cryptography backend: Botan: Decoding error: BER: Length field is too large".

Google returned no results about what this actually means.

Has anyone else experienced this or any idea what it means?

Thanks
