I have install qt4 on my linux machine and like to play with qtruby on
qt4. How can I install it?
Um.. I'm afraid the QtRuby port from Qt3 to Qt4 isn't finished yet. I've got
the Smoke library generated and compiled with Qt4, and I've got enough of
QtRuby working to run a hello world example. I still need to change the way
slots and signals work though for Qt4 - they have changed quite a bit
internally. And the rbuic tool which compiles a Qt Designer .ui files to
ruby will probably have to be rewritten.
I'll try and make some progress in the next week or two, certainly before
the KDE Malaga aKademy conference at the end of August.
With qt4 is gpl under windows too, it will
be interesting to see how much it will be embrace by developer.
Yes, there should be a much larger target audience for QtRuby with Qt4. But
it needs someone to port the code to Windows, as I haven't personally got
any sort of Windows development environment. That work could be started now
with porting the Smoke library to Windows, and getting the qtruby hello
world working.
