SDK

MeeGo Application SDK Architecture / Work in progress...

The Application SDK is mainly targetted for Application developers who are interested in creating new applications for MeeGo platform. They might not be so interested in Open Source but are hoping to sell their applications on OVI Store or equivalent.

The application SDK should run on multiple different host environments. These host environments have not yet been agreed but probably those will be as follows: Stable Ubuntu 32bit/64bit, Stable Fedora 32bit/64bit, Windows 7, Mac OS X (version?). In general all the parts of the Application SDK should run similarly on all the hosts!

The building of the Application SDK should happen with the MeeGo OBS.

Below is the list of the components and information about the responsibles and statuses.

Qt Creator

Qt Creator is the chosen IDE for MeeGo Application SDK.

• Responsible: Maurice Kalinowski
• Package Maintainer: Fathi Boudra
• Status:
  • Not part of the OBS builds yet
  • Adding MADDE targets seems somewhat complicated

MADDE

MADDE is multiplatform toolset for compiling, running, debugging and testing. It provides same API for underlying tools on all the host platforms. MADDE can be used from commandline or from IDE. Primary IDE is Qt Creator but others, like eclipse, can be supported too.

• Responsible: Jari Ihatsu
• Package Maintainer: Fathi Boudra
• Status:
  • We have a build of MADDE that includes MeeGo ARM target
  • Not part of the OBS builds yet

Compiling

Compiling is done with combination of a cross-compiler and a sysroot which includes target headers and libraries.

Hosts and Target

The matrix below shows the status of the supported hosts and targets.

	MeeGo chroot	Ubuntu 32bit	Ubuntu 64bit	Fedora 32bit	Fedora 64bit	Windows 7	Mac OS X
ARMv5 - (cs2007q3)	?
ARMv7 - (cs2007q3)	?
Intel (gcc-...)	ok

Sysroots

Running

With MADDE the application developer can create RPM package on any host environment, transfer and runt the software on the device or in the emulation.
