Qt Jambi Technical Preview 3 Released
Message 1 in thread
We are pleased to present the third technology preview of Qt Jambi™ to
our commercial customers and the open source community for testing and
feedback. Qt Jambi is a prototype technology that enables Java
developers to utilize Qt®: the leading framework for high-performance,
cross-platform applications.
This third and final technology preview is built on the newly-released
Qt 4.2, giving Java programmers access to powerful new Qt features like
the powerful 2D graphics canvas Qt Graphics View and simplified
application styling through Widget Stylesheets. In addition, the Qt
Jambi TP3 unveils new features for more efficient development:
- The industry-standard Java documentation tool Javadoc is now available
from the Qt Jambi library, enabling Qt Jambi developers to rapidly
generate HTML documentation from Java source code
- Support for SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is now available
- Qt Jambi now makes use of real Java enums and typesafe QFlags
Further feedback on these and other features is critical in guiding
further improvements to Qt Jambi technology. For a detailed list of new
features and bugfixes incorporated into the Qt Jambi TP3, please see the
Qt Jambi documentation at:
http://doc.trolltech.com/qtjambi-1.0/qtjambi-index.html.

Is the SQL module going to make an appearance any time? There appear to be
some sql classes in the qtjambi jar, but if you go to the documentation
site and click on the SQL module link you get a 404, so I am confused as
to whether it is really there (with all its DB types).

Hi, David.
Yes, we do intend to map all modules in Qt to Qt Jambi eventually. The
SQL module is already ported, but there seem to be some issues with it
that we will work to resolve for the next release.
Sorry about the broken documentation link. Here's a working link for you:
