Homescreen widgets for Symbian^3
-
I think that we will see such support (or at least hear the official words from Nokia) after the official launch of Qt 4.7 for Symbian^3

I am using Qt Creator, based on Qt 4.7. Isn't this official?

Qt 4.7 isn't included on Symbian^3 (it still has Qt 4.6.3), you have a very early "developer version":http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/Qt_4.7_for_Symbian^3_-_developer_version available though, for Desktops and S60 3rd and 5th editions is available.

Well, I found something mentioning Home Screen APIs, but no direct link to any documentation on how to use them:

Well this seems promising!
Thanks for sharing.

I remember there is a thread in Nokia Forum talking about this.
The answer is, in the new Qt SDK version such as 1.0 or 1.1, even 1.1.1, it's not support HomeScreen Widget creation. But in the old version(i forget which one can), there is a "Push" plugin which can make this happen.
I will find the thread, there has the plugin and related APIs, then you can use it. But the Compatibility is unknow for new SDK.

I find the thread in the forum, but it's in Chinese.

There is a demo provided by the author, please try.
You can try to find hswidgetpublisher.lib first, if you mobile doesn't have it, maybe we can not use the HomeScreen publishing API mentioned in the demo.

@Chuck.Gao, i managed to run the example code. what is the difference for me is that: i used Qt quick ( a qmlapplicationviewer to show qml files), but it only use Qt/C++(Qmainwindow).
Do you know the relationship between qdeclarativeview et qmainwindow? how do I do to integrate hs_widget in a Qt Quick project?
