h1. August 17th, 2010 - week 33

QML / QtDeclarative

• bug fixing, working on documentation
• investigating simple object list, qabstractitemmodel subclass example
  • qabstractitemmodel difficult for many, and a simple list doesn't give add, remove etc
  • a workaround is to reset the model, but this carries overhead for the engine
  • might investigate qstandarditemmodel and items as the basis for this

Bauhaus / Creator

• looking at deployment challenges
  • orientation changes, in Qt or QtMobility? We need to find a good middle ground until QtMobility ships with QML bindings
  • until then providing boilerplate c++ code that provides a QDeclarativeView, orientation enums etc to allow others creating a native executable with QML
• trying QML/3D, but difficult to find the model loaded.
  • modelloader example allows setting correct coordinates

Documentation

• working on class diagrams with properties
• hoping to build a pdf for handout and sharing online

QtComponents

• water team getting back from vacation
• Have; button lineedit spinner label, Working on; windowframe toolbar pages virtual keyboard
• Discussing with other teams on areas for contributions

QML Enablers

• have working gesturearea; tap, tap&hold, swipe, pinch
• how to integrate with Flickable? flickable has its own code for interaction, mouse area interaction / dragging is very complex - took a long time to get right. worried that it will be difficult to integrate with GestureArea
• Investigating legal hurdles for pushing code externally
