The mantra I hear is 'check for features', and in that vein you have
mobility's QSysInfo for hardware (i.e. check for keyboard), and for software
you could do something like
QDeclarativeEngine engine;
QDeclarativeComponent component(&engine);
component.setData(QLatin1String("import QtQuick 1.0\nimport com.nokia.meego
1.0\nWindow {}"), QUrl());
QDeclarativeItem *item = qobject_cast<QDeclarativeItem *>(component.create());
if (item) {
// load com.nokia.meego based ui
}
There is a project that has a dynamic UI selection based on tricks like the
above one:
http://projects.developer.nokia.com/qtinfo
And it starts with a QWidgets UI to maintain compatibility with Qt4.6, then
switches to declarative if it is run on Qt4.7 and finally to a components based
UI.
