* Abstract/description:
+
-
: The Python bindings for the Maemo Platform provided by PyMaemo are an all-time favorite among the Maemo developer community. Python must keep up with the recent addition of Qt to the Nokia offering for Maemo developers.
+
-
: PySide are the Python bindings for Qt framework developed by INdT (Instuto Nokia de Tecnologia) [http://www.indt.org.br], and recently released under a LGPL license. The PySide [http://www.pyside.org] bindings target not only the desktop but were conceived to provide Qt for Python on the Maemo platform.
+
-
: Qt being a huge library, the task of creating bindings for any high level language must be automated as much as possible, while retaining the developer ability to adjust details to satisfy the particular target language demands. To tackle this problem, a binding generator for Python was developed based on QtScript Generator from Qt Development Frameworks. Developers of bindings for other Qt-based libraries could also benefit of this automated generation scheme.
+
-
: This talk will present PySide, describe its characteristics, show its current status on Maemo Platform and where the project is headed to. The binding generation tool will also be explained, as well as the common problems that arise when wrapping C++ libraries to high level languages such as Python.
+

*Author bio

-
: Marcelo is an active developer of PySide and PyMaemo projects at INdT and has been involved with Maemo apps development since N800. Nowadays he is working with automatic binding generation for C++ based libraries, like Qt.

: KDE4 brought a new concept of desktop called "Plasma" where everything is a "live object". To achieve this, a library called libplasma was created and this is a very powerful library that enables any application to create modular and rich UIs. During this presentation I'll talk more about libplasma and how it can help the developer to create more attractive and rich UIs easily.
