Hi, all

Currently my situation is....

I am trying to make a GUI interface for an application in fremantle devel-repo.

I started in Python but ended up using Qt Creator and Qt for QProcess which made more sense (as the main function is to run scripts).

The main problem is I have little knowledge on coding. I would really appreciate if someone would be intrested in helping me with my project.

I have gone wrong somewhere and have a few "Issues" in the code that hopefully someone can help with/explain.
I have looked through an fair amount of posts and wiki's and I still none the wiser on these "Issues". That said I am sure it would be easy for someone that knows C++.

Hopefully if I can get this project to work and package it, I plan on adapting it to make a completely new application.

I suppose the best way is to attach the files so you can see were I've messed up...

Any help would be great, thank you!

Well progress has been made ... sort of!
After much trial and error, I worked out that the Issues were from not coding the additional Forms and QWidgets etc correctly, which is no suprise.
So I decided to keep it simple and have one window, four buttons (removing the Menu bar and other forms) and it runs in QtCreator with no problems.
This is were I am stuck again, I can't get the application to run on my N900.

I have tried to run via Mad Developer, I can connect OK but run comes back with an error
I have no idea why Publish on my QtCreator comes back with
I have even tried to package a .deb following the wiki's, the application installs but will not run on my N900.

Any help will be most appreciated, thank you.

Wow your brave!

I've never heard of mad developer, I guess you have read all of this:
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtcreator-2....-maemo-devices

Connecting via wifi looks the easiest..

Yes, I have thanks.
WiFi is easier, although I have to switch power saving off on the device.
Connecting to the device isn't the problem, running the build is.

I cant really help sorry.. Although im thinking of installing qt and trying it while its still online!

Maybe put up more details.. Ie error msg or log?

Im sure its something simple/obvious.. Maybe google the publishing process?

Well the Publishing seems not to work because I don't have Qt SDK, only Qt Creator which makes sense
I can't download the SDK at the moment due to poor internet connection.

I am going to try to manually build the package again as per this

Still haven't got any further building a .deb that works...

As .deb packaging, it can be done manually. The question is, if You have code, that actually works in scratchbox/ Maemo emulator/ etc?

/Estel

I have created a deb for you using QT Creator with target Maemo of course.
For just creating the package I used the build and deploy option, not the publish. I am not using ereswap, so I can't test it for you. But your program itself shows the four buttons

Have put it in my dropbox temporary so you can try it yourself: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/42147901/ere..._0_1_armel.deb

Good luck with your development skills....

Well, no the code doesn't "work" properly, see below.

Thank you, very much I can see several things that don't work now...


Firstly it will not automatically install dependencies have to manually install ereswap first.

.desktop must be wrong as it will not start from launcher menu.
But it will start via
Also the .desktop icon is not working

The four buttons load up but they don't do anything.
Terminal spits out
The Mainwindow is still called MainWindow even tho I was sure I renamed it.

UI doesn't redraw on rotation to portrait or back again, which I thought would work.

Oh well
