SDK content has been updated to match Jolla Release 1.1.0.38. As the
1.1.0.38 is an opt-in release, we decided to make this version of the
SDK available only as an active download. It means you will *not* get an
update notification of this SDK version. Please see below for detailed
information of the changes.
heh, no wonder I was hitting the reload button on SDK update manager with no success, it's an opt-in-option
The corresponding SDK release will be available on the 5th of January 2015. It will include the updated rpmvalidator which allows the new libraries to be used in Store as announced in the community meeting from 25th of November 2014.
Harbour testing team will start using the new rpmvalidator from 7th of January 2015 onwards (note that 6th of January 2015 is a public holiday in Finland).
As mentioned in the release notes for Update 10[1], we will release the corresponding SDK on 5. Jan 2015 and Harbour testing will start using the new rpmvalidator allowing more libraries[2] 7. Jan 2015.
Hi. I have got a question. I am trying to write app that uses poppler lib to render pdf documents. If I understand correctly, first I must install poppler at sailfish build engine to be able to compile my apps with poppler at arm platform. I opened SailfishOS->Targets->Sailfish-i486 and installed poppler, poppler-glib, poppler-qt5 and poppler-utils packets. However I don't understand where I can find those packets? I searched in /usr directory at build engine ("find /usr -name "*poppler*"") with no success. So where is those installed packets?
P.S. I am new at packet system and unix platform, so I am sorry for that may be silly question
Today (January 5th) at 14:00 UTC we have published new installers and repositories of the Sailfish OS SDK.
The installers for this release of the SDK are available at http://www.sailfishos.org. If you have an older beta or alpha release of the SDK, you should see an update notification in the SailfishOS IDE.
SDK content has been updated to match Jolla Release 1.1.1.26. Please see below for detailed information of the changes.
A couple of things you should be aware of:
- As before, in this update the build engine, emulator and targets are reinstalled so you will lose all changes you may have made in those
- However, if your application packaging is done correctly, rebuilding your projects should reinstall the packages you have been using.
- Any customization done to SDK (adding new package repositories, adding custom targets, additional source paths) will be removed during the installation process so make your own backup of those before starting the update.
- If you import existing projects made with a previous version of the Sailfish OS SDK, make sure to select the correct kit in the project configuration step. Both ARM and i486 kits are available.
- Package repository contents have been updated and consequently using a previous SDK version with these package repositories is not supported.
- Supported host platforms can be found from: https://sailfishos.org/beta_qt5_sdk_release_notes.html
- For more information, please see the SDK Beta-Qt5 known issues list at: https://sailfishos.org/wiki/SDK_Beta_Qt5_Known_Issues.
SDK IDE (Qt Creator):
- Qt Creator version 3.1.2, which is the same as used in the October opt-in release
- Updated Sailfish Silica help documentation
Emulator:
- Emulator packages refreshed to Jolla release 1.1.1.26 level
Installer / SDK Control Center:
- Several bugfixes in the updated Installer Framework
If you have any questions, feel free to either send an email to this mailing list: mailto:devel@lists.sailfishos.org or write it up in http://together.jolla.com and tag your issue with 'sdk'.
I want to compile a compiler (ocalm) or something needed to compile another package. I did in the "traditional" way (make -> make install -> make clean). But then I realised that what I need is such compiler for the two different targets, so I should do it with mb2. I have never used mb2... what should i do? something like (for instance for the pc emulator i486):
mb2 -t SailfishOS-i486 build (or mb2 -t SailfishOS-i486 make?)
and then
mb2 -t SailfishOS-i486 install (or make install)
?
Is there any wiki or documentation that I can read about?
