Hi Mirko,
Currently the app, which is basically in state of a functional prototype,
requires either a touchscreen (which I don´t have) or it is controlled by a virtual
mousepointer automatically provided by QT. While this works, it is not exactly user
friendly on non-touch devices.
Therefore I plan as next step to add keypad support. (In particular scrolling of article
with keypad).
What are the requirements for your application? How are you controlloing it?
Regarding resource requirements I cannot tell exactly yet. I have changed the zimlib
cluster cache setting to reduce ram requirements, and probably some further tweaking can
be done. However, as it¨s based on QT I don¨t think that is exactly requireing very few
resources.
Best regards,
Christian

Hi,
First thank you for the warm welcome, and sorry that I could not finish
yet
the work on the symbian article.
Basically, zimlib compiles properly for symbian. The only missing point,
is
that I have to put the project files and patch
files described in the
article (currently on my wiki-home
http://openzim.org/User:Cip)
somewhere.
While target should be to integrate them into the
projects, for now I¨d
suggest to put them into the zim repository.
Currently I am working on a QT-based app using zimlib. Main target is
curently symbian 3rd FP1. However, binary should work on symbian 5th as
well, I just cannot test it. Furthermore, it should be recompileable for
other platforms supporting QT, like Maemo, but also Linux or Windows.
App is currently in the state of a functional prototype, but it is
already
useable.
I have not published Code/Binary of this app yet. I am planning to
publish
it in the near future, probably on sourceforge.
For sure I´ll keep you
updated.
This sounds really great! I tried developing a gtk based OpenZim app. The
app itself is also almost usable but we have a few problems most notably
that our main target is a non-touch-screen device and thus we need an
alternative way to move the cursor :) No worries I am not trying to
convert
you to gtk, qt is the more elegant and appealing choice :)
Now, Our main OpenWrt intergrations person is in the process of porting QT
to OpenWrt and should be finished within a week (I hope ;) ). I would be
very interested in porting your app to OpenWrt as well if at all possible.
Is your app dependent on a cursor or touch screen ?
What are the specs of your main target in terms of RAM etc (we are
somewhat
limited in that as well)?
Do you have some screenshots of your app?
I am sure I could come up with many more questions but I'll leave it at
that
for now :)
Once again, great effort and really looking forward to seeing it in
action!

Christian Pühringer
