Hi, We are currently trying to build a GUI application on Maemo, and after listening to suggestions from a few Maemo developers we started prototyping it with Python and Qt.
Python and Qt seems easy since the UI code designed from Qt designer can be converted into python automatically. But soon we came to realize that only the UI code (in xml) is converted, any functions, methods or code written in C++ for the original Qt application has to be manually translated into Python. Seems reasonable but now we aren't so sure if this is the best approach anymore... The application we are building isn't too complicated (but will have quite some number of screens/forms), and will contain SOAP web service calls, and some file writing/reading. We've got the web service call working using ZSI, so all that is left to decide is the UI framework to be used. Qt seems to be a better choice initially since it comes with a designer IDE that allows us to design the GUI more easily. Before we move on to spend more time using Python and Qt to develop our program, we'd like to hear some comments from you developers : ) Thanks, Jey Han _______________________________________________ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
