A fast-paced guide for building cross-platform applications using Qt and Qt Quick

Overview

• Introduces the basic concepts of programming using Qt and the Qt Quick framework, with tips and tricks to help you make the most of Qt Creator
• Shows you how to write cross-platform mobile applications with Qt Creator
• Full of illustrations and diagrams, with clear step-by-step instructions and practical examples that will help you build cross-platform applications using Qt and Qt Quick

In Detail

Qt Creator is the leading open-source, cross-platform integrated development environment (IDE) for building GUI applications that run on Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, Android, and many embedded systems. It greatly simplifies cross-platform application development, targeting desktop computers, embedded platforms, and mobile systems. If you want to build and debug applications with Qt Creator in no time, then this book is for you.

This book provides a thorough introduction to using Qt Creator to make cross-platform applications that you can read in just a few hours. It covers everything you need to know to build applications with Qt Creator. This book also discusses the facets of Qt Creator that make it a valued software development environment for students and professionals alike.

The book starts by showing you how to get, install, and use Qt Creator, beginning with the basics of how to edit, compile, debug, and run applications. Along the way, you will learn to use Qt to write cross-platform GUI applications for Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, and Android in C++ and Qt Quick.

This book covers how to craft GUIs with Qt Designer, localize applications using Qt Linguist, and profile application performance with Qt Creator's tools and valgrind. You will gain valuable insight in constructing applications using Qt in C++ and Qt Quick, Qt's declarative GUI authoring platform and learn everything you need to know to use Qt Creator effectively as a software developer.

What you will learn from this book

• Use Qt Creator's editor to edit your application source and resource files
• Localize applications using Qt Linguist and Qt
• Design GUI applications using both Qt and Qt Quick
• Write mobile applications for Android using Qt Creator and Qt Quick
• Integrate version control with Qt Creator
• Gain valuable tips known only to professional developers

Approach

Written in a concise and easy-to-follow approach, this book will guide you to develop your first application with Qt with illustrated examples and screenshots

Who this book is written for

If you are a developer who is new to Qt and Qt Creator and is interested in harnessing the power of Qt for cross-platform development, this book is great for you. If you have basic experience programming in C++, you have what it takes to create great cross-platform applications using Qt and Qt Creator!

Boot to Qt - SDK Demonstation

This is a demonstration of the Boot to Qt SDK. It shows how to configure Qt Creator for hardware development and how to run applications in both the emulator and on embedded hardware.

Boot to Qt is a light-weight UI stack based on the Qt Framework. It is built on top of a a minimal Android baselayer. Boot to Qt is a commercial offering by Digia, including ready-made images for several hardware types, Single-click deploy from the Qt Creator IDE, a device emulator.

Qt 5 Everywhere

Qt 5 Everywhere Demo


Qt is a cross-platform complete development framework with tools designed to streamline the creation of stunning native applications and amazing user interfaces for desktop, embedded and mobile platforms.

Application demonstrated in the video contains several Qt Quick 2 applications which you can launch by tapping the devices. This application highlights the versatility of Qt technology in bringing different user interface styles in several platforms and device types with one source code.

Qt 5.1 Released, with Qt for Android & iOS Technology Previews

Qt 5.1 is now available

In addition to that our work to bring Qt to mobile operating systems is showing great results. Even though Qt for Android and Qt for iOS are not yet final, and are marked as technology previews in this release, they are already very usable for a large number of use cases.

Qt for Android supports all Qt modules that are part of 5.1 with the exception of Qt Serialport, Qt WebKit and parts of Qt Multimedia. Qt for Android also comes with a great integration into Qt Creator that allows you to do almost all your development until the point where you want to upload the application to Google Play.

Qt for iOS also already supports the same Qt modules as Android does, with the exception of Qt Quick 2. This is due to limitations in iOS that make it impossible to use V8 as the JavaScript engine on this operating system. We will provide full Qt Quick support on iOS with Qt 5.2.

You can install some demo applications that show Qt on iOS and Android from the App Store and Google Play. For Android we have a new Qt Everywhere demo as well as the Qt 5 launch demo available in Google Play. The blog post about Google Play contains more details about publishing Qt applications in Google Play. For iOS, we have Sub Attack, a small Qt based game and Qt Quicksand published in the app store.

As with any release also this one contains a few issues that we know about and probably some more we haven’t yet found. All of these will be collected on the Known Issues page in our wiki.
