Qt SDK 1.1 TP issue with Mobility/Camera

[charshep]

I installed the Qt SDK 1.1 technology preview and I'm trying to get a basic camera example to work. I've tried a number of variations of the following code but they all fail with the error "A data abort exception has occurred" when setViewFinder() is called:


QCamera* camera = new QCamera();
QCameraViewfinder* viewFinder = new QCameraViewfinder((QWidget*)this->parent());
camera->setViewfinder(viewFinder);


Other variations I tried include setting a device on the camera, calling show() first on viewFinder, etc. I also tried a version with every capability I'm aware of enabled in my .pro file that I then used Open Signed Online to sign. All fail with the same error. The SDK and the sis package files installed correctly as far as I can tell but it's hard to know for sure since all the packages on the N8 are invisible. Previous to the SDK technology preview release I tried to install the developer preview of Qt 4.7.0 and the native Symbian C++ environment but I never did get that to work. Maybe that has affected the installation of my Qt SDK/sis packages install somehow?


Also, from my .pro file:

CONFIG += mobility
MOBILITY = multimedia location

An update. Looking at the Makefile I find the following line that lists the include directories generated from the .pro file:

INCPATH = -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/include/QtCore" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/include/QtNetwork" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/include/QtGui" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/include/QtOpenGL" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/include/QtMultimedia" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/include/QtWebKit" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/include" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/include/QtMultimediaKit" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/include/QtLocation" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/mkspecs/common/symbian" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/stdapis" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/stdapis/sys" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/mw" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/platform/mw" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/platform" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/platform/loc" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/platform/mw/loc" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/platform/loc/sc" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/platform/mw/loc/sc" -I"C:/QtLocation" -I"C:/QtMultimediaKit" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/stdapis/stlportv5" -I"C:/QtSDK/Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/include/QtXmlPatterns" -I"C:/Symbian/Carbide/workspace/hereme-qtwebkit/heremeqt/moc" -I"C:/Symbian/Carbide/workspace/hereme-qtwebkit/heremeqt/ui" -I"C:/Symbian/Carbide/workspace/hereme-qtwebkit/heremeqt" -I"C:/Symbian/Carbide/workspace/hereme-qtwebkit/heremeqt/rcc"


None of these directories includes camera related headers, nor do I have the directory QtMultimediaKit on my machine. Furthermore, it seems odd to me that the only locations where I can find qcamera.h are (with C:/QtSDK given as root):

Symbian/SDKs/Symbian1Qt471/epoc32/include/middleware/qcamera.h
Symbian/SDKs/Symbian1Qt471/src/multimedia/qcamera.h
Symbian/SDKs/Symbian3Qt471/epoc32/include/mw/qcamera.h

But if there were an include problem I'd expect to see a compile or link error, not a run time failure.

I think the device installation files shipped with latest SDK are faulty, at least the actual camera example shipped with Mobility APIs appears to crash with Ker-Exec 3 on device. Thus I suppose we would need to wait for update, and hope that the issue is fixed by them.

Hi

Any workaround available for this issue.

get the March 1st released Qt SDK (or newer), and get the Qt Mobility 1.1.1 examples set, then it works out-of-box.
