Qt for UEFI platforms?

neuehier

Is there any Qt version for UEFI?

goetz

What do you want to achieve? I don't understand yet, how Qt would be involved in the process of booting a computer.

Just looking for a graphic framework for a preboot application

goetz

Qt depends on an already booted device, so I would say it's hardly suited for the pre-boot process. So in that context, no there's no Qt for UEFI.

In UEFI context you have booted devices, you can acces the graphic card and draw something...
I think it could be posible to have some light Qt version there, just like this versions that run in some RealTime or embbeded systems, was wondering if someone is working on this.

goetz

I wouldn't say it's completely impossible. But to my knowledge, no one is working on that. You might get some more elaborate answer on the #qt-labs channel on freenode IRC.
