Qt Blog

I’ve been told that all good things come in 3s, and maybe they didn’t think about a tree when they said that.. So I had to try this out and here is the result; here are 3 great things I found recently that I wanted to share with you. The OpenDocument Format specification is created […]

It’s been a while since the last update and a few things happened that are worth reporting. George and Adam visited us in Oslo for a week. We’ve spent a fair amount of time discussing all sorts of topics and we have moved our Git repository over to http://code.staikos.net. The new machine setup makes it […]

This feels great. This post is an eight year old dream come true – I have always wanted to write an article titled “… for fun and profit” ever since I read the amazing phrack article :). Qt Style Sheets makes it possible to style Qt widgets, we all know that. But, what if some […]

As you can probably see from recent blogs, lots of new features are being merged into the mainline Qt (what will become Qt 4.4.0). The latest big one is the Network Access API we’ve been developing for the past few months. It’s in today’s snapshot, so you can try it out already. I’d like to […]

Just a quick update to say that Qt Concurrent has been integrated into Qt/main and is now available in the snapshots. The documentation is available here, end there’s a couple of examples in the examples/qtconcurrent/ directory in the snapshot package. Enjoy!

A couple of years ago (3, to be exact), my girlfriend and I bought a house about 45 minutes outside of Oslo. The little village is just far enough and small enough to not get cable TV. So, that means we have to have satellite. I consider myself a lucky geek, because my tuner runs […]

The day has finally arrived. We are proud to announce that we have now integrated our development branch for the Widgets On The Canvas project into Qt/main, or what will become Qt 4.4. You have already seen a random selection of screenshots and feature rundowns in previous blogs, but now it’s all in your hands […]

Yesterday a big fog came in at around the evening hours. No, not the proverbial kind that comes after too much drinking (not doing much of that anyway with these Norwegian prices), real fog that feels clammy to the skin. I was down town, some blocks from sea and I couldn’t see the end of […]

It’s time for another update on “what’s happening” on the (Qt)WebKit side of things 🙂 We’ve been working on preparing the API for a first round of review. As a result of that we have finished the action API in QWebPage that I mentioned in my previous blog. QWebSettings has changed to a pointer based […]

People have asked for Qt’s XQuery & XPath support to not be locked to a particular tree backend such as QDom, but to be able to work on arbitrary backends. Any decent implementation(such as XQilla or Saxon) provide that nowadays in someway or another, but I’d say Patternist’s approach is novice, with its own share […]
