No QFuture for Symbian :-p #42

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
QFuture is not supported on Symbian, so monav (SVN) is not compilable on 
Symbian in the current state. see 
http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-5182

Nice to see somebody trying to compile it for Symbian :-D

Hmm that certainly strange. Does Symbian support concurrency? Would it work if 
we would move it to an extra thread instead of using QFuture?

Yes, Symbian supports QThread, just not the "easy" QFuture/Qt Concurrent 
framework

I think then I will have to replace this with a genuine background thread.

Did you encounter any other problems with Symbian?

I'll probably do, but I was stuck with this specific problem... MoNav ran fine 
in the Qt Simulator, but, by experience, that doesn't mean much as it is really 
a mingw setup with the symbian form factor...

Not really related, but I'm using Qt Creator on Windows to compile and I had 
problems compiling because by default, Qt Creator do a "qmake -r" which somehow 
messed up the compile setup.

Also not related, but I'm specifically interested in the quadtilerenderer and I 
did not want to install mapnik, which is a hard dependency in the current 
compile setup.
I can send you a patch which only activate mapnik with a "MAPNIK=1" on the 
qmake line, if you wish (or,the other way, deactivate mapnik with a NOMAPNIK=1 
if you prefer)

This seems to be the only Symbian discussion. 
Just wondering if anybody succeeded in compiling a working program for Symbian. 

I'm not a programmer at all so when I downloaded and ran MoNav 0.3 in QtCreator 
(from Nokia) I got all sorts of warnings and messages I can't figure out. 

Before giving up (would be pityful because it is a nice program), I could try 
to get a working knowledge of Qt and fix it myself, or choose the easy way and 
find out if somebody already compiled it succesfully for Symbian.

I would certainly be interested if this would be published on MoNav's download 
page.
