[Marble-devel] Re: Marble QML components

[Dennis Nienhüser]

Hi Djuro,

please excuse the late reply. I'll put together a techbase article in 
the next days that describes how to set things up. It's not too 
complicated, but there are a couple of traps that easily get in ones 
way. In a nutshell for a desktop system:
- Install qt-components
- Install qt 4.7.4 or later. Pointing LD_LIBRARY_PATH at a recent 
QtCreator/libs directory is enough
- Grab the meego theme graphics from a running MeeGo emulator (Qt 
Creator can start it, ssh at port 6666)
- Compile Marble from trunk. Choose the gsoc-2011-qtcomponents branch, 
not master
- Include marble's lib/marble/plugins directory in QML_IMPORT_PATH
- Run marble-touch

Extending marble-touch to handle different device types is one of the 
main goals, so help on extending it for that would be very cool. 
Currently it's optimized for MeeGo on a Nokia N9*. I'll hopefully be 
able to join the development here when my Galaxy Tab 10.1 arrives. 
That'll be at the end of August as before I'm on a longer vacation.

I'm not sure about Windows 7 support. Marble should compile on Windows 
7, no idea about qt-components. Same for the WeTab OS, so a virtual 
machine might indeed be a good alternative to get started.

I'll give you a heads-up when I'm done with the article that details the 
installation/setup.

Regards,
Dennis
