Qtopia ide

[bvs]

I am afraid that your search for a Qtopia IDE will not be very successful. You must find an IDE that can be configured easily for building, running, and debugging Qtopia apps.

At work, I am developing a mobile VoIP phone with SlickEdit Core. SlickEdit is also available as Eclipse plugin and Visual Studio add-in. It took me half an hour to set up the Qtopia build, to run Qtopia, and to have full code navigation working. You tell SlickEdit's build system when to call qtopiamake, make, and make install. You can also define the environment variables and working directories for these steps.

Cross-compilation is set up in a device-specific qmake.conf file. For the Greenphone, it is devices/greenphone/mkspecs/qws/linux-greenphone-g++/qmake.conf. For none-phone editions, it might be at a different place.

You can hook the call to qvfb into SlickEdit similar to the build commands. But in the end, you still have to do the integration into SlickEdit manually. The same is true for Eclipse, but we found that code navigation and code assist doesn't work properly there.

To my knowledge, there is no IDE that supports Qtopia right out of the box. You have to do the integration yourself
