The Qt Quick Components project provides a set of QML components to build user interfaces. These components allow interfaces to accept user input and provide feedback indicators.

Contents

[edit] Abstract

This efford adds a new set of components to the already available ones for Symbian and MeeGo platforms, located at its own namespace.

import org.maemo.fremantle 1.0  // for Core components
import org.maemo.extras    1.0  // for Extras components

Right now, look and feel match the one you could find in a Harmattan device. Required support to let designers implement a QtComponents theme with Fremantle look and feel is an ongoing task. See /ThemeHowto for details

[edit] Scope

Available packages are compatible with Qt libs from PR1.3 firmware. This implies that QtComponents are only compatible with QtQuick 1.0 language set. For improvements on this area see /RoadMap.

[edit] Installation

There's available an external repository with required packages. To install this catalog, point your N900 browser to [this page] and a Maemo5 repo catalog will be downloaded and installed into your phone. After that, Go to Application Manager and install qt-components-10-examples. This will install required packages to get QtComponents up and running.

QtComponents replaces internally meegotouch input context support with the one provided by Maliit. I encourage you to test it. To get VKB support, go again to Application Manager and select nemo-keyboard package.

[edit] Usage

See /Miniature or /Butaca to know typical required changes to get a Harmattan app running onto Maemo5.
