I am interested in Qt on Android and have collected improvements for Android:
- Introduces the new namespace Qtandroid, which includes the following functions:
- Qandroidjniobject androidactivity (); Can get an app's Activity
- intandroidsdkversion (); Gets the current device's API level
- voidstartactivity (const Qandroidjniobject & Intent, int receiverrequestcode, Qandroidactivityresultreceiver * resultreceiver = 0); Start an activity that corresponds to the Android activity class startactivity or Startactivityforresult, which makes it easy to call other apps on Android!
- voidStartintentsender (const qandroidjniobject & intentsender, int receiverrequestcode, Qandroidactivityresultreceiver * resultreceiver = 0); The Startintentsender () or Startintentsenderforresult () that corresponds to the Android activity class can launch new activity or send a Intent to other Android apps Request it to complete a function and return the result.
- Qaccelerometer implements the Accellerationmode
- Bug Fixes and improvements:
- Fixed a crash bug when building a lot of combo boxes and menus
- Fixed bug where Dir::entrylist () missed the first file while traversing the assets virtual file system
- Now the defined App launch Welcome screen (splash screen) can be displayed to the first window created
- Fix a memory leak on the Clipboard
- Improved performance and speed for the first time you access the assets file system
- Fixed a font merge issue that caused the loss of some Arabic numeral symbols
I don't think Android is improving much ...
I am concerned about the Qtcamera/qtmultimedia did not mention, do not know whether still can not be used in Qt Widgets application, there is time to test.
