Qt for Tizen: Qt Quick Controls - Development
Current Status
Following table show current status of porting Tizen Controls to Qt Quick cross platform controls. Not all Tizen controls will be ported - sometimes equivalent component already exists in Qt (e.g. Animations). Some of them need deeper analysis and integration with platform (Search, Keypad) and they will be considered later. Possible States:
- ? - not reviewed
- Analysed - we know what to do to port certain control
- In Progress
- Done - ported

Assumptions
- Qt quick controls for Tizen should be derived from qtquickcontrols. This may be opportunity of merging Qt Quick Controls for Tizen with Qt Quick Controls in the future.
- The controls should have Tizen look and feel based on Tizen UI Controls (see UiControls sample app from Tizen SDK available at https://developer.tizen.org/documentation/dev-guide under Tizen Native App Programming->Sample applications->UiControls)

- All content of the OSP libraries is licensed under the [license] so images can be reused
Main conclusions after analysis of Tizen 2.1b controls
General
- Controls are placed in libosp-uifw library. Sources could be obtained from download.tizen.org. For emulator it could be http://download.tizen.org/snapshots/2.1-emul/common/latest/repos/tizen-main/source/ (osp-uifw-.rpm package)
The package can be unpacked by this command:
rpm2cpio myrpmfile.rpm | cpio -idmv
It provides osp-uifw sources.
- Each control contains information about related resources hardcoded in FUi_ResourceControlConfig.cpp. For example FUi_ResourceProgressConfig.cpp lists resources for FUiCtrlProgress.
FUi_Resource*Config.cpp analysis
Below is the content of FUi_ResourceProgressConfig.cpp file.
#include "FUi_ResourceProgressConfig.h"
START_UI_CONFIG(PROGRESS);
{
ADD_COLOR_CONFIG(BAR_BG_NORMAL, $W062L1);
ADD_COLOR_CONFIG(BAR_NORMAL, $W062L2);
ADD_IMAGE_CONFIG(BAR_BG_NORMAL, #00_progress_bg.#.png);
ADD_IMAGE_CONFIG(BAR_NORMAL, #00_progress_bar.#.png);
ADD_IMAGE_CONFIG(BAR_BG_EFFECT, #00_progress_ef_bg.#.png);
ADD_IMAGE_CONFIG(BAR_EFFECT, #00_progress_bar_ef.#.png);
START_UI_CONFIG_MODE(720x1280);
{
ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG(BAR_HEIGHT, 36);
ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG(BAR_LEFT_MARGIN, 36);
ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG(BAR_OFFSET, 9);
ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG(MINIMUM_WIDTH, 276);
ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG(MINIMUM_HEIGHT, 36);
}
END_UI_CONFIG_MODE(720x1280);
}
END_UI_CONFIG(PROGRESS);
Important from our point of view are ADD__CONFIG macros (defined in FUi_ResourceConfigMacro.h): ADD_COLOR_CONFIG- first argument is the key, second argument is the value but - if second value starts with $ then it acts as the key from osp-uifw-source-dir/res/common/usr/share/osp/themes xml file. The real value is related to that key. So first line in FUi_ResourceProgressConfig.cpp inserts pair (BAR_BG_NORMAL,"#FFF0EDE9") into some resource map . "#FFF0EDE9" is the value from osp-uifw-source-dir/res/common/usr/share/osp/themes/white.xml corresponding to $W062L1 key.
- ADD_IMAGE_CONFIG - sets image from ex. osp-uifw-1.2.1.0/res/common/usr/share/osp/bitmaps/720x1280 and its subdirectiories.
- ADD_SHAPE_CONFIG - self explanatory
Images used in Controls: Tizen uses mainly Andorid like 9-patch images. Unlike QML BorderImage they contains information about bottom,top, left and right areas inside png file.
Preparing Tizen resources for Qt Quick Control for Tizen
Assumptions
- Currently only white theme will ported
- Currently only 720x1280 resolution will be supported
- Tizen 9-patch images will be modified (border information will be moved from png to sci)
Steps
- Images are copied from osp-uifw source package to qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/sources/720x1280
- Images are copied from qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/sources/720x1280 to qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/sources/720x1280-normalizedNames
- Images in qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/sources/720x1280-normalizedNames are normalized:
- Normalization script is invoked. It removes ".#" from fileNames (type of QML image source is url and there is problem with loading files when file name contains #'s). These files are nine patch images It also modifies png's with 9patch2sci tool.
- Best suitable files are found and exported to JS object with findProperImages.sh script. Image files are pointed in FUi_ResourceControlConfig.cpp by name and best file path should be choosen. Alghoritm is self explanatory - see findProperImages.sh script.
- Images are copied from qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/sources/720x1280-normalizedNames to qtquickcontrols-tizen/src/images/720x1280
- Output of findProperImages.sh is JS object and is saved in DefaultSettings.js file.
- Colors theme JS object is generated with generateColorsObject.sh and saved to DefaultSettings.js file.
