QtWebKit Examples to Utilise Web Technologies in Mobile Applications
January 28, 2010
Two recent example applications from Forum Nokia help developers utilise QtWebKit, a module that lets developers create application UIs using pure web technologies — including HTML, XML, and the JavaScript™ programming language — much as they do Nokia S60 on Symbian OS Web Runtime widgets. The QtWebKit: ListEm Example demonstrates how to create a hybrid application that combines a web UI with a C++ engine to access a SQLite database. The application has been optimised for Symbian OS, S60 5.0 and Maemo 5 touch UIs, but is also compatible with desktop platforms. The QtWebKit: Beta Labs Example has been ported from an existing Symbian WRT widget to a Qt application. This approach is great for adding system functionality to an application without compromising the existing UI. Also, compatibility can be extended to all platforms that support QtWebKit, including Maemo 5. The example also includes a porting guide.
