    Looks like what is needed for OP is QTextStream::operator>>(). It reads one word from QIODevice (where words are separeted with QChar::isSpace() chars).

    I'd been toying with this idea for a while, but the number of formats, and my (in)competence, had also put me off. One idea I had was to use Qt Plugins for the different formats, but that leads me to the following questions: Does Qt on Symbian support plugins (I assume it does), and also can plugins be bundled on the Ovi store as additions to existing apps?

    [quote author="stuk" date="1305300505"]What title is this?!?!?![/quote] I modified the title a bit to make it somewhat shorter and easier to read. Edit: Also moved forum, as this is actually a bit off topic seeing that the SDK crash is more probably the result of the RAID failure than the cause of it...

    Being new to Qt and having forgotten 90% of my C++ I went with the path of least resistance at the moment regarding the models :) I will probably have to change something later but for the moment it is working for me. I have just about finished reorganising the files if anyone wants to comment.

    So far it seems to be working for me; I've got xcode4 installed from the app store. I did have to re-install qt creator. I think qt creator is actually using gcc still; but I can try out xcode4 and still work with qt creator and build and run things there, so I'm happy for now. I would really like to see official xcode4 support though :)

    I was also looking for something similar to OSGi in the C++ world, ideally with a Qt-like API. I did not find something meeting the requirements for our projects and since I already had quite some experience in porting OSGi API to C++, I started working on the CTK Plugin Framework https://github.com/commontk/CTK/tree/master/Libs/PluginFramework (CTK is an international project involving major players in the field of medical imaging). [quote author="smalltobi" date="1294739452"] I have found a Qt based plugin framework: http://www.commontk.org But this also doesn't seem to be very mature, yet and it is focused on medical applications.[/quote] Although the context was originally medical applications, the plugin framework is not biased in any way towards certain types of applications. In fact, it is a very close imitation of the OSGi Life Cycle and Service Layer, with a Qt based API. As such, the API can be considered stable, although using applications just start to be developed. Further, we also have implementations for some of the OSGi Compendium specifications. For example, EventAdmin (an event bus spec), ConfigAdmin (used to provide and manage configuration data for services), Logging, and MetaType implementations. The plugin framework has no dependencies on QtGui and is licensed under Apache License 2.0.

    What about the new wide gamut displays that are starting to appear? Many of these have gamuts that are much wider than sRGB. These are starting to come into wider use now and will likely be common in the not too distant future. In addition we are starting to see displays and video devices that support 10 and 12 bits per channel and Display Port supports of to 16 bits per channel. How is an 8 bit per channel format like QImage suitable for use with this class of hardware? Also as a side note color scientists do not consider "floating point internal storage" a color space but rather a storage format. In addition these same folks would also tell you that RGB is not a color space unless there is lots more information included to define it as a color space. What is it's white point? What is it's gamma? How do the RGB values map to a CIE color space like XYZ or Lab*? And so on. For example sRGB and ProPhotoRGB both define such color spaces. Absent that information it is impossible to do a meaningful conversion between color spaces.

    [quote author="Almashraee" date="1294939573"]Hello everybody. I am mohammed start doing Ph.D research for agent learning. I wish if someone help me in answering my question. What are the most common mechanisms that are used to train a multiagent system. Greatful to hear your answer. regards [/quote] The first thing I'd expect a Ph.D student to do, is to do a literature study in order to figure out what is already known in his area of research. So, my advice is to start searching for relevant literature using systems like Scopus or Web of Knowledge, to get up to speed with the state of the art, and write down what you learned. That is a great first or second chapter for your thesis, and could also be published separately as a review article in a related journal. Good thing is: review articles tend to get a lot of citations too, if they're any good. I think that is more effective than asking around on random, unrelated internet forums.

    Sorry for the off topic... The questions about the curriculum are alwasy quite comlicated, not to mention the answers..., especially if it comes to such deegre programs. And I got angry a few times lately about my curriculum... We learn C as we need it, and some C++. But I think it's very useful to know a few other programming languages, it broadens our horizons and improve our thinking about problems. And of course Qt is a big help and great tool, so I will try my best to make an offical or a not so offical course at my departure about Qt.

    Well... I did list some, IMHO, shortcommings of qt-apps.org in my openingpost. However, I am curious about the similar websites you mentioned. Which other websites do you know of that feature Qt components? If there's one that's even remotely good, I'd be more than happy not to start something like this.

    From what I've read the consensus is that once a poll is up the various options available are locked so that every voter votes on the same poll. I'm all for that as well.

    lupasa: So write some client that communicates with a server. The basics are all in Qt... high level stuff like a framework for application level protocols are of course not part of a standard Qt. So it is definitely possible, but will require a bit of work or 3rd party libraries to ease the protocol implementation.

    tamhanna, xsacha, please go to private or to another thread about app ads. As tamhanna said it is really offtopic here.
