[maemo-developers] Developing for Maemo 5 using Qt

[From: Jose Maria Garcia-Valdecasas]

Hi all,

This is my first post in this list, and although i have tried to search in
the archive, i haven't found anything related to my question.

I have developed/contributed to some apps using C++ and Qt already, but have
never done the same for maemo, so now that i have an N900 i thought that i
could play a bit and work in some apps/widgets i think that my n900 is
missing. And here is where the problems begin.

I can't find any desktop widget example using Qt (most probably because the
idea was to use GTK+ in Maemo 5 and not Qt), so i'd like to know if anyone
here has a link to an example, or documentation about how to do this.

Secondly, one of the ideas is to provide a desktop widget which shows the
number of lost calls/sms/mails (this could also be shown in the "slide to
unlock" screen). Can this be done only using Qt and it's beta QMobility? Or
should I wait until it's more mature and use right now any other API? I'm
not used to Maemo SDK, so any hint would be apreciated.

Thanks in advance and sorry if this topic has already been discussed.

Jose.
