hello, please, get familiar with the Subsurface codebase and read the "two patch" rule: http://trac.subsurface-divelog.org/wiki/Subsurface_GSOC_2015_Idea_List#Thetwopatchesrule the first major difference between Android development and Qt development is the language - Java vs C++. you should be familiar with C++ to work on this task. we are also interested in solutions using QML - which is Javascript-like language and is used for UI creation in Qt. after installing the Qt framework there are some touch related example in the "examples/touch" folder. this can help you understand the "Qt on Android" topic: http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/examples-android.html currently, Subsurface does build on Android with a desktop like UI, while the plan and the goal of the GSoC task is to provide an alternative touch UI for mobile devices. lubomir -- _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
