Maintenance of ported apps

2010-01-31 Thread maemo

Im very interested in porting apps to Maemo but I have concerns about the 
long-term maintenance of the apps. Porting a GTK app to Maemo requires 
some significant chznges, so what happens when a newer version of the GTK 
app appears? Will in need to be ported 'again'? Should changes for Maemo 
be merged back upstream? If so, Im assuming there are compiler flags that 
can be used for preprocessing code for Maemo and non-Maemo platforms?

How is this managed?

rx-51 xkb file: how does FOUR_LEVEL type work?

2010-01-31 Thread Denis DeLaRoca


My understanding of xkb configuration files is that the type FOUR_LEVEL, 
or its variants FOUR_LEVEL_ALPHABETIC and FOUR_LEVEL_SEMIALPHABETIC, allow 
for programming characters at the 4th level. For example, the following 
definition of my US keyboard,


partial alphanumeric_keys
xkb_symbols "us" {
include "nokia_vndr/rx-51(english_base)"
include "nokia_vndr/rx-51(arrows_4btns)"

name[Group1] = "U.S. English";
key.type[Group1] = "FOUR_LEVEL";

// 1. row

// 2. row
key { [h, H, parenleft,  bracketleft  ] };
key { [j, J, parenright, bracketright ] };

// 3. row
};


Ought to give me bracket chars when pressing Fn + Shift... but such is not 
the case. The definitions behave rather as type THREE_LEVEL. The only 
exception being when the character slotted at the 3rd level can be 
shifted, in which case the upercase version of the char is output. 
I tried using the type FOUR_LEVEL_SEMIALPHABETIC but no change.


Is there a problem as to how I am interpreting the use of the LEVEL 
types... or is it the case that the hildon layer code is enforcing this 
observed THREE_LEVEL behaviour?

Re: Changing chinook support to archive mode

2010-01-31 Thread Till Harbaum / Lists
Hi,

me too. All my projects are also built for chinook and i even still
have an n800 running chinook for testing reasons.

If chinook is officially be retired, i'll just flash my n800 to diablo
and forget about chinook. I am fine with that.

Hi,

   You should check libalarm API and its feautures 
(http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-final/libalarm/). It provides You 
exactly what You want... the only problem is that it is in pure C. You 
can add alarm and forget about QTimer etc. Device could be even boot 
up on You alarm if that is a behaviour You would like to get (and 
device was switched off before Your alarm;) ). It should not be to 
hard to use this library in Qt code. Furthermore, You can check 
another library provided by Nokia - libtime 
(http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-final/clockd/). It allows You to 
communicate with clockd which is responsible for maintaining time on 
the device. clockd daemon also sends D-Bus signal 
(http://maemo.org/api_refs/5.0/5.0-final/clockd/libtime_8h.html just 
at the top of the page :) ) after time was changed by the user or time 
was synchronized and changed to different GMT offset (this is not 
working with every GSM network though).


   So.. fast reply for Your question is: signal send by clockd. Better 
solution: use libalarm which will save You a lot of time :)

Re: sensing change in System Clock using Qt

2010-01-31 Thread Faheem Pervez
There are many D-Bus signals emitted when the time zone changes. Try
and make the effort to run dbus-monitor --system, please.

Failing that, the following pages exist:

 As a general rule, delay measurements should be done with the
 monotonic clock, not the wall clock (the real-time clock). As far as I
 know, Qt timers already do so internally. But of course, your own code
 should never request and use the wall clock for time measurements.

But the problem that can face me is the case when the user changes his

I don't think I follow you! What do you mean by monotonic clock ? If I
don't depend on the system's clock to get current time, where else can I
get it from ?
Let me explain my problem again briefly, I want to know the current
time, calculate some future durations  depending on it. Then I figure
out the time left to the upcoming duration and set it as interval to a
QTimer Object. But I'm afraid that user may change the system clock
(adjust the clock) So that my preset time will be invalid.



Just so you know... you're describing an implementation and asking if it does
what you want without describing what you want.

Example: "At 4am the user wants to play a sound at 8am (in 4hrs). At 6am the
user changes timezone and it becomes 7am. The alarm should sound at 8am in the
new timezone."

My guess is that you know about interval timers but you should be using a
wall-clock. Since you haven't specified what you want it's hard to know.

I am very sorry for not making my question clear enough. But the

What I'm asking is there anyway to GET NOTIFIED by the system when its

Just so you know... you're describing an implementation and asking if it does
what you want without describing what you want.

Example: "At 4am the user wants to play a sound at 8am (in 4hrs). At 6am the
user changes timezone and it becomes 7am. The alarm should sound at 8am in the
new timezone."

My guess is that you know about interval timers but you should be using a
wall-clock. Since you haven't specified what you want it's hard to know.
