Re: [SailfishDevel] Sharing a common OfflineStorage DB between multiple Sailfish apps.
Hi,
What are the pros and cons of using QStandardPaths as opposed to XDG
Environmental Variables?
If you look into the unix implementation of the class QStandardPaths, you find
something like
QString QStandardPaths::writableLocation(StandardLocation type)
{
switch (type) {
case HomeLocation:
return QDir::homePath();
case TempLocation:
return QDir::tempPath();
case CacheLocation:
case GenericCacheLocation:
{
// http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-spec-0.6.html
QString xdgCacheHome = QFile::decodeName(qgetenv(XDG_CACHE_HOME));
if (isTestModeEnabled())
xdgCacheHome = QDir::homePath() + QLatin1String(/.qttest/cache);
if (xdgCacheHome.isEmpty())
xdgCacheHome = QDir::homePath() + QLatin1String(/.cache);
if (type == QStandardPaths::CacheLocation)
appendOrganizationAndApp(xdgCacheHome);
return xdgCacheHome;
}
case DataLocation:
case GenericDataLocation:
{
QString xdgDataHome = QFile::decodeName(qgetenv(XDG_DATA_HOME));
if (isTestModeEnabled())
xdgDataHome = QDir::homePath() + QLatin1String(/.qttest/share);
if (xdgDataHome.isEmpty())
xdgDataHome = QDir::homePath() + QLatin1String(/.local/share);
if (type == QStandardPaths::DataLocation)
appendOrganizationAndApp(xdgDataHome);
return xdgDataHome;
}
case ConfigLocation:
{
// http://standards.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/latest/
QString xdgConfigHome = QFile::decodeName(qgetenv(XDG_CONFIG_HOME));
if (isTestModeEnabled())
xdgConfigHome = QDir::homePath() + QLatin1String(/.qttest/config);
if (xdgConfigHome.isEmpty())
xdgConfigHome = QDir::homePath() + QLatin1String(/.config);
return xdgConfigHome;
}
So using QStandardPaths is
* convenience and brings you
* OS independance, because they (Qt) tend to choose the right position.

[SailfishDevel] QStandardPaths not working when app is run from Launcher
Hey, My app did not want to read the some cached content it was supposed to have written in QStandardPaths::CacheLocation. To understand why, I tried to run it from the terminal, and... everything is working fine. Since we don't have logs when we run the app directly from Launcher, I updated it to display some logs directly in the UI and I figured out that, when the app is run from the Launcher on the actual device (it's ok on the emulator), QStandardPaths does not work correctly: QStandardPaths::CacheLocation returns /home/nemo/.cache/mdeclarativecache_pre_initialized_qapplication-X X is a random number, so each time I run my app, it creates a new one. When run from terminal, QStandardPaths::CacheLocation correctly returns /home/nemo/.cache/ I tried with QStandardPaths::DataLocation but it's the same, I get /home/nemo/.local/share/AppName/mdeclarativecache_pre_initialized_qapplication-X So for the moment, I temporarily hardcoded /home/nemo/.cache/ Thanks!

Re: [SailfishDevel] Fwd: Re: QGeoSatelliteInfoSource in Sailfish
Salut Damien I am not sure If I have understood your question, but I think you are asking about differences in direction from the QtSensors Compass and the the QtPositioning PostionSource elements. 1) The Compass Azimuth shows the direction the top of the device is pointing to (so it will change as your rotate the device). 2) The PositionSource shows a direction based on the direction the device is travelling (irrespective of where the device is pointing). http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5/qgeopositioninfo.html Similar to 2) The speed shown by a GPS is absolute, irrespective of how the device is pointing. Some years ago I was coastal soaring on the coast of South Africa when the wind picked up, and got to the point where it was at (and possibly just above) the maximum speed of my paraglider. Flying fully into the wind, pushing maximum speedbar the GPS was showing speeds of 0.5 - 1 Km, and it was very difficult to tell if this was fowrards or backwards - but it was most likely the latter. Cheers Chris Zitat von Caliste Damien dcali...@free.fr: Bonsoir, Le dimanche 12 janvier 2014, christopher.l...@thurweb.ch a écrit : Marcel used the Compass element from QtSensors for azimuth. Ok, I understand, but I'm still wondering : - QtSensors and compas will provide the azimuth of the device, so acting it like a compas, for instance, top of the device is pointing to the north. - QGeoPosition is providing GPS info with latitude and longitude, and I was thinking that the direction attribute was in fact the first derivative of the position, which is different from the compas return value, for instance I'm moving west while pointing top of device to the north. So how to get the first derivative of GPS position, deriving it by hand ? Like calling the azimuth method on the two last GPS fix ? Have a nice week, Damien. ___ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list
Re: [SailfishDevel] GPS initially shows old location
Hi, On Fri, 17 Jan 2014 17:09:37 christopher.l...@thurweb.ch wrote: Is it possible that the Jolla GPS / GPS Software stack initially shows the last location acquired? This is the behaviour I am observing. At the moment I am sitting in an office building, which has poor GPS reception, yet my app immediately shows GPS Coordinates. By peaking I can see that the GPS icon is flashing, and thus no fix has been acquired. Having checked the GPS coordinates with Google Earth, the coords are actually for a location several kilometers away - in the middle of a set of railway tracks that I travel along to and from work. As I do lots of mobile development on the train, this is a plausible location for where the Jolla last got a fix. By comparison the same app running on my old Nokia N9 gets NaN from the GPS for longitude and lattitude until it gets a fix. I can then translate this into a user friendly text on the GUI No valid position yet, and stop the user from proceeding further into the app until a true fix is acquired. If my understanding of the behaviour of the Jolla GPS is correct, is there anyway I can stop it giving me the old fix? It is important to my app that the coords shown are as accurate as possible, otherwise a recovery party / rescue helicopter may be mis-directed. This is a feature in Qt Positioning. Only the coordinates and timestamp are saved. Use the timestamp to check if the location data is old. The accuracy values of the position will be NaN.

[SailfishDevel] How to attach a page to initial page?
Hi there, How can I push an attached page to my initial page on the pageStack? I'd like to have a behavior similar to the Jolla Store app. There you can push to the next page to get categories when you are on initial page. I tried several thing to achieve this, but didn't get it work. Doing an pushAttached to pageStack in onComplete of my initial page ends in error message that you can not push a page on stack while another push is running. There is another idea I've not tried yet. Maybe it is possible to use a Timer with a few milliseconds which does the pushAttached to the pageStack and disables itself after that. But this solution sounds quite bad to me. Thanks for help! Best regards, Tobi ___ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list
