'''Miniature''' is a chess game currently maintained by Michael Hasselmann and Quim Gil and targeted to Harmattan devices. See more about it on [[Miniature]] page.

I'm going to make this project as an example of the required changes to get it working on Fremantle

== Fetch sources ==
Get master code from repo following intructions at [[Miniature/Development]]

== Refactor QML files ==
QtComponents use its own namespace inside fremantle. you need to replace:
{|
|QtQuick 1.1
|QtQuick 1.0
|-
|com.nokia.meego     1.0
|org.maemo.fremantle 1.0
|-
|com.nokia.extras    1.0
|org.maemo.extras    1.0
|-
|Qt.labs.components 1.1
|Qt.labs.components 1.0
|}

=== Change meego namesapce by fremantle one ===
There is a simple script to do this task located at [https://qt.gitorious.org/~inean/qt-components/ineans-qt-components/blobs/fremantle-1.0/src/fremantle/migrateTo gitorious]. invoke inside miniature directory as:

<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
migrateTo --fremantle '*.qml'
</syntaxhighlight>

=== Remove QtQuick 1.1  code ===
After that, you should lookup for '''QtQuick 1.1''' properties. In current upstream code threre's no one. :). The easiest way to achieve this is to use QtSimulator 1.1 and try to run code inside it. See [[QtComponents/Simulator]] to know how to get QtComponents running on QtSimulator.

commit.

== Handle Close events ==
QtComponents uses qt.qui() event to notify application backends that user has requested to close window. Miniature doens't handle this event on it's own so, we need to add it.

First, lookup for a DeclarativeView or 'show' call inside miniature directory. A '''grep''' command point us to miniature.cc file. We add a close Slot to deal with Qt.quit() event.

== Adapt deployment to Fremantle == 
Some changes on how miniature is deployed are needed to match Fremantle.

=== Optify code ===
use a PREFIX config variable to change default target dir from /usr to /opt. Also update locations of desktop and icon applications

=== Update Desktop file ===
And finally, update desktop file. There's no applauncerd on fremantle, so remove invoker from Exec.

commit

== Update packing scripts ==
Now that all required changes are commited. generate patches with
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">git format-patch origin/master</syntaxhighlight>
and copy generated files into debian/patches directory.

modify rules to merge this patches at '''config-stamp''' rule with
<syntaxhighlight lang="make">for p in debian/patches/*; do patch -p1 < $$p; done
</syntaxhighlight>

And thats all. You have upstream '''minuature''' working on Maemo5
