KDAB now offers a dedicated on-site training on the version control system Git. We've reorganized, updated and extended the course to cover the latest changes in Git and most recent Git workflows.
Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems have been around since the 1950s, far longer than most other types of computer applications. Their rock-solid performance has been responsible for the streamlining of any industry that needs precise and consistent controls: building automation, energy management, part machining, printing and packaging, robotic assembly, ship building, water treatment, […]
Each month KDAB schedules me to maintain the Qt for Android port. Usually I review the pending patches or fix bugs, but on a quiet month I have time for new functionalities and improvements
Today’s complex applications can soak up megabytes, a memory management strategy is crucial for RAM intensive applications like image/video processing, massive databases, and machine learning.
On the 1st and 2nd of April, KDAB will once again be sponsors at this fast-growing Qt event in Italy: QtDay 2019. The biggest Qt event in the region, now in its 8th year, contrary to what its name suggests, QtDay 2019 boasts a full two days of technical talks and workshops, each day with […]
In vehicle infotainment systems and instrument clusters are getting larger and more complex, requiring an exponentially growing base of software to drive them. Furthermore, KDAB finds that self-driving technology does not obviate the need for displays – in fact, autonomous technology seems to be accelerating the trend for larger and more capable graphics software. To […]
KDAB has contributed QMacTouchBar to Qt, a widget in the QtMacExtras module, written by KDABian Christoph Schleifenbaum, which is already being used in some of KDAB’s own internal tools.

We’ll be showing Clazy at Embedded World, Nuremberg, Febr 26-28, where we are a main Qt partner. You can read more about it in our previous […]
Question: How do you cast a function pointer to a void*? (You’re trustworthy and wouldn’t dare to do anything evil with it, right?) Answer: Maybe your first thought was, well reinterpret_cast<void*>(&f) of course. That was mine, at least. Well, it turns out, C++ wants to support architectures, where data and instruction pointers are physically distinct […]
