Accessing system info on Maemo Nokia N900 device in Qt application

[freely]

Hello,

Is it possible to get IMEI number of Maemo Nokia N900 device in Qt wrriten application?

I made search via google, yahoo, bing for get imei data in Maemo N900 in Qt application
but I did not found any suggestions what to code ( what libraries to use ) to get system info for Maemo N900

for Symbian devices there is GetIMEI project

Can somebody help how to get IMEI number running on Maemo N900 in Qt project ( what libraries to use )?

Thanks a lot,

Pavel

In other words it's available using DBus.

Should I simply Qt+= dbus in .pro file
and use next libraries:


#include <stdlib.h>
#include <glib.h>
#include <glib/gprintf.h>
#include <dbus/dbus-glib.h>


should I inculde something in .pro file also or is it enought to include the headers in code ( .h files )?

thanks

You just need Qt's dbus functionality.

ups!
it is not so easy:
from one side according to http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=371496&postcount=45

you shouldn't use any Qt wrrapers ( libraries )

but when using Qt:

http://wiki.forum.nokia.com/index.php/Qt_application_for_Maemo_with_DBus_support

http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.6/qtdbus.html#details

http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.6/intro-to-dbus.html

http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/IntroductionToDBus#head-900e59c577277516e6d8d8a3afbb30beff4794bd

you should modify ( for Maemo ) .desctop file ; add service description ; add QtDbus module to CONFIG in .pro file ; #include <QtDBus> ; register the service;
use QDbusConnection class;

it is different modules in your link and in Qt !

look Witold:

Should be used when in Qt application for Maemo:

1) QDbusConnection class as DBusGConnection from your example ?

2) What to use for this in Qt:

g_type_init();

connection = dbus_g_bus_get(DBUS_BUS_SYSTEM, &error);
if (!connection)

3) What Qt Dbus class to use as proxy ?

4) There is any code at www getting IMEI using Qt Dbus classes only in C , right?

one moment...

I must not use Qt Dbus binding for dbus comunication on Maemo, right?

I can use only appropriated C libraries function as in the example in my code version for Maemo, right?

could it be done using QtMobility QSystemDeviceInfo ?

Why can't you use QtDbus?
