[Bug 1483289] Re: Creating a new emulator is very confusing
Those are still code names; rc-proposed or bq-rc or bq-stable are things understood by platform developers. App developers do not and should not have to understand them. I'd expect the emulator list to not actually be a list at all -- create an emulator which is running the software that a real person would find on their phone after buying that phone from the manufacturer/carrier and then running Updates on the phone. If there might be more than one of those, then an emulator list which looks like Bq Aquaris E4.5/E5, Meizu MX4 would be much better. If there needs to be an advanced section listing channel names, that's fine, of course, but the channel names are both meaningless and confusing to app devs. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1483289 Title: Creating a new emulator is very confusing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu/+bug/1483289/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1483289] Re: Creating a new emulator is very confusing
I think on average devel, devel-proposed and custom should not be in the list, or at least the list should be sorted and more verbose. With the current selection, the top most ones should probably be: rc-proposed, bq-stable, bq-rc -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1483289 Title: Creating a new emulator is very confusing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu/+bug/1483289/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

If you want to create an emulator what is (close to*) identical with the bq E.4.5 released image then you want to use the bq-stable. The -rc stands for release candidate and the rc-proposed is the staging. The devel and devel-proposed as it is used in the Ubuntu terminology stands for the Ubuntu development release. Right now it is a wily based image. More details about the channels and channel names you can find here: https://developer.ubuntu.com/en/start/ubuntu-for-devices/image-channels/ But sorry for the confusion. The SDK tools do not define the channel names, just shows them in the list. * close ti identical means that the emulator is an i386 based qemu image not an armhf based real one -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1483289 Title: Creating a new emulator is very confusing To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qtcreator-plugin-ubuntu/+bug/1483289/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
