Quick Qt Quick (QML) demo on iPod 4G

Still needs a bit of work... Just a proof of concept for now... ;)

No code available (and not really sure if it still works with latest Lighthouse as I haven't looked at it since November)... Was really just a proof of concept, and in fact my first stab at writing Objective-C/iOS code... Probably start again from scratch soon, but a bit demotivated by the latest (Nokia) developments...

@IANfromAfrica What nokia developments are you referring to? Also will you be open sourcing your code when you start from scratch again?

[IANfromAfrica]

@jackminardi I was referring to Nokia moving away from Qt as their main mobile development framework (their new smartphones will be running WP7). I've started working on this again with a view to get QtSceneGraph running on iOS. I'm not sure what I'll be doing with the code at this stage (need to get it working well first!), however there is another iOS plugin that's been developed inhouse at Nokia as a proof of concept, that's shipped with Lighthouse if you want to mess around with the code...

@PresstvDotCom: Thanks! The goals, pace and methods (apparently, I haven't seen their code) of the qt-iphone project are quite different to this one - not so interested... ;)

@joona001: good tip, thanks I'll try that out... :)

[IANfromAfrica]

@axid123: thanks, it's a very early version of an iOS plugin for Qt/Lighthouse

@IamNiiTeiko: it's a (very) new port of Qt/Lighthouse to iOS. This is Qt 4.7.1 running on iOS 4.1 (iPod touch 4G)...

[joona001]

Looking at the amount of missed clicks you're making it looks like the drag threshold of your Qt has been optimized for desktop and not for mobile devices. You can modify the drag threshold by calling function QApplication::setStartDragDist­ance() from C++ or by running the qmlviewer tool with command line parameter -dragthreshold.

well done POC :)

[JoonhwanLee]

amazing works!

Keep going please

[shtetldik]

When the source for this will be opened up?

Thanks.

[brianaalewife]

Where is the source code for this project located? i would love to try it out. Doing just a QtLighthouse plugin is a much cleaner approach than the gitorious qt-iphone approach imho.

[rickbsgu]

Looks interesting. Code available anywhere?

[PresstvDotCom]

Impressive. What about joining forces with the guys from the qt-iphone project which is hosted on gitorious?
