Qtphone Compile Help Please, 2nd opinion needed Options

[speculatrix]

could someone out there try building qtphone for zaurus please?
homepage/screenshot: http://qtphone.sourceforge.net/
download: http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtphone

I'm getting errors trying to link it and I want to know if it's me being stupid, or that it's expecting libraries newer than you'd use with the Z.

I got it to compile and run with QT built on linux/x86, so the program does in theory work.

If you do, please can you tell me which versions of qtopia and qt-embedded your using. And if it runs on Z, what OS you have? I am trying to get it working on Cacko1.22.

thanks
Paul

Hi,

The errors that you get are because of a basic misunderstanding - QT is not QTE or QPE.

That program was written in QT3 and uses many classes not included in QTE and QPE
For example it use QSplashScreen, QProcess, QTextEdit.
(there is a qpe/qprocess but that's not the same)

Even the classes that are common to all 3 have differences and the function QPushButton::setPaletteBackgroundColor() for instance is not part of QTE or QPE or probably for that matter in QT2.x.x

To run it on a Zaurus you will need to port it and replace calls to functions which do not exist and if necessary write your own classes to replace them.

QtPhone has hard coded file addresses also which relate to a linux workstation file system not a Zaurus and need changing.

Good Luck

PS. No I'm not interested in porting it thanks. I use WiFi via an ADSL LAN / WiFi Router.
