Some questions about Necessitas and qt for Android.

Hi Denis,

Of course, just replace android/res/drawable/logo.png with any logo you want,
Necessitas logo is there just as an example.


>- Is there a way to share my application with Ministro embedded?

No, and I really don't recommend it, because we may do heavy 

changes to Ministro and libs, and if you do that, they will become incompatible.
Ministro is a silent service which will bother your users only when your application
needs some libs which are not yet downloaded, after that the user will never see
it again.

There are a few apps which are using QtQuck and AFAIK it works ok.
Please file a bug to https://sourceforge.net/p/necessitas/tickets/ with a simple
example project which we can use to reproduce the issue.

Your program will be compatible with almost all android arm devices, your app

should run on any device which has Android API 4+ if it doesn't use OpenGL and
Android API 5+ if it does use OpenGL.

ARMv5 is supported by all android ARM devices, but it is slow.
ARMv7 is much faster.
You can put both of them in the same package and Android will pick the right one.
To do that, you have to compile *and deploy* your app two time with both toolchains.

P.S. Please use http://groups.google.com/group/android-qt mailing list to get help, we try 

to use necessitas-devel only for development propose and we try to keep it low traffic.
Thanks for your understanding !
