Qt on android
-
I'm curios any plans from Nokia or qt guys to support the port to android? An official supported version (tier 1 or 2 support) of qt for android will draw more developers to qt. Necessitas suite is very good, don't know how mobility stands but with a bit of polish that could be a great product. it seems that mono droid and mono for iphone have some success i'm guessing qt for android at least to have the same success.
-
There is a community port available somewhere.
-
There it is: http://code.google.com/p/android-lighthouse/

Good question.I also looking forward the official Android binding in Qt. Any plan? Anyone know?
@Olorin5800 Olorin5800: what's the mono? Can you give me a link or some brief introduction? -
I know about the port im using it just curios if the port will be included as part of official qt package sdk and maybe get some love from qt developers at nokia.
as for mono link here you go http://mono-android.net/ and http://monotouch.net/

@Franzk Franzk: Does it do the same thing as Qt's lighthouse, which make Qt running at Android, iPhone(Actually, we know the QML in iPhone) happen?
-
Lighthouse is a project designed to easily make ports to different platforms. The android Qt port is using exactly that.
I do wonder what you mean by 'official'. Is that a Nokia supported port? I wouldn't count on it. Besides, since Qt is going Open Governance, community efforts are probably going to be 'official' slightly easier.
-
@Franzk: No, i use the wrong word "official", and sorry for that. I just wanna know, if the project is launched by the community, and if it's the only one(maybe the better one) for Android porting. So i can focus on it, if i want to port the App to Andriod phones.

the port doesn't work on 2.3.2 os and 3.0 os. i am gonna dig into it.

[/quote]Because I have both 2.3.2 and 3.0 devices, the first thing I did with them was trying the Qt port.
2.3.2 crashes when downloading the library.
3.0 gives black screen and also crashes occasionally.
If I have time, I will look at the android-lighthouse project.
