Hi Ryan,

First, thanks for your work.

I’m trying to get Phonegap Qt working on an N8.
For this, I replaced the xq*_p.* files by stubs that do (almost) nothing interesting and ran the thing via the debugger on the N8.

However, there are no values shown for the various groups like “Location” (on the N8, in the application), …

For example, for “Location”, it says “finding satellites” and never updates.

So I wonder whether something in the integration of the Phonegap framework into the browser got broken.
How would you go about debugging this problem?

I mean, how do I find out whether the GapAcceleration exists?

I’ve seen a “DebugConsole” object in “phonegap.js”. How do I get to see the output of the console?

cheers,
Danny Milosavljevic

Absolutely. Using Symbian Qt / C++, the possibilities are endless.

We will continue to support the Symbian widget version of phonegap … and particularly if the WRT community contributes to it. But symbian C++ / Qt will allow us to expand the environment and open the door for plugins, which is a critical direction of PhoneGap.

Is your PhoneGap API demo app available in open source anywhere?

Would this mean that the sqlite and file I/O functionality might be possible for Javascript apps on Symbian?

Hi!

Great thing. This is a good option for running widgets instead of using WRT, but will a similar approach for Windows Mobile?

So, Ive understood at your entry, you are not going to support symbian under symbian widgets? so you are going to change the symbian widgets to qt symbian-c++ based applications? It´s nice! well I consider it a really nice change, the question in fact, is about the change, I would like knowing.

Thx in advance

kind regards
