What happens behind the scenes in that case? Is Qt downloaded from Ovi when the user asks to install the application? Or is Qt downloaded the first time the application is launched? I'd say Qt on Android, iOS, etc is not too different of a case from Qt on Symbian. Or maybe it is, if there is specific support in the Ovi Store for that. -- Pau Garcia i Quiles http://www.elpauer.org (Due to my workload, I may need 10 days to answer)
