Nokia Qt SDK and .deb-building

riussi

Hi,

I am using Nokia Qt SDK and trying to get my app to install also a .desktop-file for it on Maemo-devices.

In my .pro-file I have this block:

@maemo5 {
desktop.path = /usr/share/applications/hildon
desktop.files = $${TARGET}.desktop

INSTALLS += desktop

}
@

This should install my .desktop-file in the abovementioned folder?

Well anyway Nokia Qt SDK when building with Madde doesn't follow that. I have to go to "Projects" > "Maemo" > "Build steps" > "Create package" > "Details" and add it manually there. Then it will be added to the .deb-file.

But this is not suitable for me since this setting is stored in my environment specific .pro.user file which isn't shared with the team in the source code repository. I would need to get the .pro working. Any ideas what is wrong with that clip?

The current release of Qt Creator does not evaluate the project file for Maemo deployment. The code above will work with Creator 2.1.

Now that Qt Creator 2.1 snapshots are made available you can try with it.
