did you check the: https://projects.forum.nokia.com/col...lationAndUsage already ?

ya ,this has been given in this thread.
Here is a step-by-step guide to install Colibri-library.

1.Create checkout for Colibri SVN.
2.Open Qt Creator and start a new project by importing library root directory to a new project.
3.Create a new QML file and add an import for "colibri" in the beginning of that QML file.

i didnt understand the first point.

you would need to install SVN client to your machine, and then use the SVN client to fetch the source codes from the SVN repository of the project.

ok ,thanks for your reply,hey can you suggest me a good site through which i can download this client .

[symbianyucca]

I can not remember any good sites, but you could google and see what would be available. I have used tortoise for my SVN needs, but indeed some people might prefer to use other clients. thus google a bit, and see what you can find, and then pick one that satisfies your needs best.

hi,i downloaded tortoise svn client and created a checkout and given the url https://projects.forum.nokia.com/svn/colibri ,but i am getting error ,please help me out

[ranjit.kadam]

In qt creator i selected the file->newfile or project->project from version control->subversion checkout
and a dialog pops up asking repository location so i entered as https://projects.forum.nokia.com/svn/colibri [projects.forum.nokia.com], but i got this message which i have pasted below
Executing in E:\colibri: svn.exe checkout https://projects.forum.nokia.com/svn/colibri colibri
Unable to start svn.exe: Process failed to start: No such file or directory

[symbianyucca]

Ok, Tortoise does not really work on commandline, thus for that purpose you would need to get another clients (just google to see which one is working best on commandline), or simply use the tortoise from filemanager.

how to go with qtcreator only instead of tortoise i mean to say using qtcreator as i have mentioned in my below post

[symbianyucca]

Qt Creator itself does not include SVN, GIT or merchury, it merele uses any command line client that would be installed into teh system, thus even if you would want to utilize the options provided by the Qt Creator, you would still need to install the client separately. And as it requires the client to have command line interface, you need to select the client that would be supported by the Qt Creator. Or utilize the client in a way that the client itself was designed to be used.

hello symbianyucca,i dont know wats the problem so i took the files which are imp for calendar i.e is datepicker..but when i check in desktop simulator its coming correct,but same thing when i run on symbian simulator the widget is looking wierd

[symbianyucca]

I have not tested them, thus would not know excat problems on their appearance, anyway, you could see whether they have any discussions on teh project discussion board on the issues.

Hello SymbianYucca, I did the checkout of the colibri project but I do not understand the second step to have it integrated in a project
"2.Open Qt Creator and start a new project by importing library root directory to a new project."
I am using Qt Creator 2.5
Could you help me?
