Abstract: It is easier and easier to create a proper QtQuick application from scratch. But is it really that simple to bring existing code in the QtQuick structure? It can get especially challenging for a large project which collected C++ collected over more than 15 years. What can we do of all that code? Temptation […]

Abstract: Qt5 introduces better support for OpenGL from the QPA/Lighthouse abstraction, through a new set of OpenGL classes up to QtQuick 2 and Qt3D. OpenGL is also very often used for games and as the central content widget in desktop applications. With the advent of QtQuick 2 it is now easy to write entire user […]

Abstract: Modern OpenGL abandons the old fixed-function pipeline in exchange for a programmable pipeline using shaders and buffer objects. This offers much more flexibility to developers and opens the door to a huge range of effects and techniques whilst at the same time making available huge performance improvements. This presentation will teach you about the […]

Abstract: “QtQuick in Qt5 uses OpenGL to deliver fluid, performant visuals, and an internal scene-graph structure to permit threaded rendering, decoupling the main application thread from interacting directly with the graphics driver. For developers work with an existing rendering or visualisation technology, this presents both an opportunity but also problems; QtQuick offers a compelling, modern […]

QML is the language that makes writing Qt application UIs easier than ever before. QmlWeb now brings this ease to the web. Traditionally desktop applications were written in languages like C or C++. Web technologies like HTML and PHP were mainly used to write static websites. With the rise of modern web applications and technologies […]

...just think of performance constrained embedded platforms. But how do you make your C++ application faster? This talk will show you how to find bottlenecks in a C++ program using various tools. Then we will look into some solutions to common issues and top it off with some guidelines for new code. Abstract: Often one […]

For the last 3 years, we in KDAB have received overwhelmingly positive feedback for organising and running Qt Developer Days in Europe. Now we would like to say thank you to all of you for your participation and positive feedback with regard to our arrangements of everything from great technical content and discussions to evening […]

Earlier this month, KDAB attended the Meeting C++ conference in Düsseldorf as a Gold Sponsor. The conference was well attended by people from across the spectrum of C++ use, and with a wide variety of expertise. Attendees were enthusiastic and interested in getting the most out of C++11, sharing knowledge about the direction of C++, […]

Starting next weekend, one of the most significant events on the Qt development and contribution calendar is taking place in Bilbao, Spain. The co-located and parallel-running Qt Contributor Summit and Akademy promise to push plans for Qt forward during the coming year. As an unconference, the format of the Qt Contributor Summit is designed to […]
