Create N900 app in Qt under Windows 7

[rickrvo]

Let me clear my situation for you. First I tried to test my app under windows 7 on qt simulator. Here the debug works fine but as you told me it uses the desktop executables, so I wouldn't be testing it correctly under windows since when I compile for the Maemo the code is a bit different as my app has codes like this:

#if defined(Q_OS_WIN32)
fileName += ".dll";
#endif
#if defined(Q_OS_LINUX)
fileName = "lib" + fileName + ".so";
#endif
#if defined(Q_OS_MAC)
fileName += ".dylib";

So I tried to use qt simulator under linux to make sure that when compiled for Maemo all the testing would be more accurate. But under windows qt simulator returns the pluginsDir = QDir (qApp->applicationDirPath()); to the correct windows folder... but under linux returns <unavailable synchronous data>...

I think I'm out of ideas how to test my app... Under linux x86 the code wouldn't compile correctly... under linux x86_64 the same code compiles fine but qt simulator doesn't work. I tried installing MADDE n900 sdk and it said that it's not compatible with x86_64...

What can I do? try to install MADDE for windows and test it there?

I'm afraid that after spending lots of time trying to get this to work I won't be able to debug properly under windows 7 with MADDE with all the luck I'm having...

please help me again lol

The simulator reacts to Q_WS_SIMULATOR. N900 reacts to Q_WS_MAEMO_5. If you want to test it for N900 then use Q_WS_MAEMO_5 and test it under an emulator.

which emulator do you recommend? for ubuntu x86_64 under a virtual machine. or windows 7? and where can I find a reliable installation guide to that emulator?

thanks

I've learned alot since the last post I've made here. I wanna tank you for all your help. I got everything to work. even created a deb file with plugins and works on the n900!!!

now the only issue I have is this one on this forum.
