Qt6 Bluetooth and Serial Port support
-
Hi, I have a question regarding Bluetooth (specifically BLE) and serial port device support in Qt 6. I know that the current focus has been somewhere else, but having the device support is very crucial to us.
Also, I would like to ask about Qt for Python (PySide6) bindings to both QSerialPort and QBluetooth... APIs. I know you can use PySerial, but I prefer Qt API.
Thank you!

What is your question?
Qt6 currently is missing many modules, use Qt5. -
Sorry, I was not explicit about the question:
- Is the serial port and Bluetooth support coming to Qt 6? If yes, is there a rough estimate of when is this scheduled?
- Is there support for those two coming to Qt for Python? Actually, it was not available in PySide2 and Qt 5.
Thanks.

@hubpav See https://doc-snapshots.qt.io/qt6-dev/whatsnew60.html and https://www.qt.io/blog/add-on-support-in-qt-6.0-and-beyond
Yes, missing modules will be reintroduced in a later release. QtBluetooth is planned for Qt6.2
For now you can simply use Qt5.Don't know about Python plans.

Great, thank you for the clarification - I must have overlooked this document:
