Building MeeGo Applications

Once the MeeGo SDK has been installed, you can configure Qt Creator to use the MeeGo toolchain.

Configure Qt Creator to use the MeeGo toolchain

1. Start Qt Creator: Start > All Programs > MeeGo SDK > Qt Creator
2. Configure Qt Creator to use MeeGo toolchain:
   1. Go to Tools > Options > Qt4 > Qt Versions. You will see a "meego-tablet" Qt version under "Manual"
   2. On the Version Name line, you can enter a user-friendly name for the tablet Qt version.
   3. On the qmake location line, specify a qmake location for the new version. The toolchain installs by default to C:\MeeGoSDK_1.2\MADDE\targets\<target name>\bin\qmake. Once you have picked qmake.exe the "Rebuild" button should be enabled.
   4. Click Rebuild. If successful, you will see a green checkmark next to the "Debugging helpers" text. Click OK.

   

Create a MeeGo application

1. Go to the menu: File > New File or Project > Qt Gui Application
   
2. At the end of project creation, you will see the "Project setup" dialog. Choose the MeeGo toolchain you configured.
   

Build configuration of MeeGo project

1. Click the "Projects" icon on the left of Qt Creator. The "MeeGo" build and run configuration page will be shown.
2. Verify that the MeeGo toolchain is selected as the "Qt Version" when building.
