Deploying Qt App. on different Symbian devices
I want to make an application that can run on all nokia devices
BUT I have 2 problems with deployment.
I don't know "how many sis files I have to create for all nokia devices????"
because nokia devices are different in Symbian OS versions (symbian^3, symbian^1, Symbian Belle , Symbian Anna ,S60 ,3rd edition,5th edition and N97)
I dont know also "How to create each of them "sis files" ????
PLzzzzzzzz Help!
Thanks in advance
Re: Deploying Qt App. on different Symbian devices
Hello,
in principle, you could make do with one if you can limit yourself to Qt 4.6.3.
Please tell me more about the app you work on.
Re: Deploying Qt App. on different Symbian devices
It's a medical application
contains 3 windows
1- Introduction about the prog. (label)
2- User choose from 2 options. (2 buttons)
3- the prog calculates the result "multiplication of 2 numbers"
----------------------------------------------------------
I use Qt creator 2.1.0
based on Qt 4.7.1
Re: Deploying Qt App. on different Symbian devices
You are me quite a bugger. Sending a PM, bismillah, man.
For this, I would downgrade to Qt 4.6.3 - then you could go with just one sis file.
But: Nokia is unwilling recently to admit Carbide generated files into Ovi. So you might need two: one with the latest Qt for touchscreen, and the old one with 4.6.3 for non touch.

I don't understand this statement "You are me quite a bugger. Sending a PM, bismillah, man."
Is that mean I should download an older version of Qt SDK ??

Hi
You should always use the latest SDK version, but when compiling your app, in build settings, choose Qt 4.6.3 for S^1.
There's a nasty bug that doesnt allow support for 5th edition, check the workaround in the link(I dont know if it's correct already in the latest version). If you ask me, the greatest concert between differente phones versions should be testing your app in touch and non touch devices.
Re: Deploying Qt App. on different Symbian devices
I'm really thankful for your help, It's appreciated :)
--------------------------------------------------------
* I have this SDK now --> Qt_SDK_Win_offline_v1_1_3_en
--------------------------------------------------------
* I can't find this option "Qt 4.6.3 for S^1" in build settings.
--------------------------------------------------------
* In projects --> target --> build --> Qt version --> “there are 5 choicesâ€
(Qt 4.7.2 for symbian^1 - Qt 4.7.2 for symbian^3 - Qt 4.7.3 for symbian^1 - Qt 4.7.3 for symbian^3 - Qt 4.7.4 for symbian Belle)
* In projects --> target --> build --> Tool Chain --> "there are 2 choicesâ€
( Symbin GCCE Tool chain - GCCE (3.4.3) )
---------------------------------------------------------
* I want to cover all the following devices:
-----------------------------------------
1- Symbian^3 - http://www.developer.nokia.com/Devic...lter2=symbian3
2- Symbian^1 - http://www.developer.nokia.com/Devic...ilter2=s60_5ed
---------------------------------------------------------
SO,
What should I choose from the above "Qt version options & Tool Chain "
in order to generate sis files for Symbian^1 and Symbian^3 " the devices in the above 2 links"??
---------------------------------------------------------
Thanks in advance

This is IMHO wrong.
You need Carbide and Qt 4.6.3 standalone!

I nerver used Carbide, only QtSDK, but I can assure you that I had a app in Ovi Store, from only one sis file, fully compatible with old devices such as Nokia E71 (non touch S^1) to Nokia N8 (S^3 touch device).
Marwa: In QtCreator go to menu "Help"->"Start updater". You should install aditional Qt 4.6.3 S^1 version.
I think you should at least test it in a touch and non touch device. If you don't have it you might wanna check Nokia RDA .
