The lights start to fade, the audience goes quiet, the curtains start to rise, spotlight on, drum-roll…
I have the great pleasure to finally announce the 1.0 version of the Nokia Qt SDK. It is available for download on the usual location at Forum Nokia as of now. In addition to the final Windows and Linux versions we also added a beta version for MacOSX 10.6 as well.
In case you have been using the Release Candidate, the integrated updater will allow you to get your installation up-to-date, there is no need to reinstall.
In related news, there is now a public beta of Nokia signing Symbian apps for free and the Ovi Store will accept Qt apps starting in the next month. Read more about this.
- This final release contains the following components:
- Qt Creator 2.0 final
- Qt Simulator 1.0 final
- Qt Mobility libraries
- a current version of MADDE
- Symbian packages
- Smartinstaller packages for Symbian
- the experimental Remotecompiler
- Documentation for all components
Please use our Bugtracker to report bugs and provide feedback (select the “Nokia Qt SDK installer” project).

And there is again no support to build for symbian on linux. 
Great, wait is over. It’s time to write cool symbian applications now 
Well done! However, you must work on the libraries. For example, the current support for image formats including metadata is absolutely terrible. There is still a lot of work ahead.
@Markus
Well, we did not say that this is going to happen with the 1.0 release, did we? I thought we were pretty clear on not having native compilation support for Symbian on Linux with this release.
However, you can still try the remote compiler by Forum Nokia, which is available as an experimental component. That will send you a sis package back and also works on Symbian.
@Rick
Looking forward to your results
How does one geo-tag pictures with this release? That’s the one thing I miss. I know the image IO is slated for an overhaul.
is there a way to specify a proxy when using the online installer?
@matthias
You can use the command line parameter –proxy and then it will use the system settings to identify them.

Maybe this should be added to the announcement. There are a lot of people behind firewalls
@mkalinow: thanks, i assume those are 2 - which got converted by the blog soft. when I run it, it yields an error: it cannot remove a temp file because it is in use by another process http://imagebin.ca/view/wEZUVDgq.html
But I continued anyway, nothing really got installed but a sdk maintenance tool. I ran this tool with the same proxy option and it gives the same error. It also shows the sdk as installed consuming 516 kB
http://imagebin.ca/view/7hfi76ks.html
Could it be that the installer does not authenticate to the proxy? I checked the temp updates.xml file and it was empty (although tcpview showed an established connection to the proxy)
Guess I’d better file a bug report
Win32 Installation fails..I quess because of the firewall as it complains about not being able to connect to online repositories.
Is there anyway to specify the proxy settings for the installer? I tried from command line with -proxy parameter, but installer does not start from command line in Windows, at least not for me anyway.
Tried to install on win32 but fails with “installer was not able to get old path nokiaqtsdk…” Removed all previous traces of NokiaQtSDK, but indeed had qt 4.6 installations for win32,symbian (hope they shd not effect). Anything magical required to install NokiaQtSDK
@mkalinow
I hope you do not misunderstand me.
I like the Nokia Qt SDK and would like to say thanks to the all team.
But hope dies last 
Could you help me to find some statements about the privacy terms if I use the remote compiler?
Could I trust, that my source code will keep secure?
Thanks again and keep it up.
As to ‘is it secure’.
Read any terms and conditions thouroughly.
Then consider what happens if - say - a VM with the compiler is hacked into - or some other breach of security not through your actions causes your sourcecode to leak.
Is there any financial remedy?
I would be astonished if there was.
If you would suffer large losses (of any sort) by your sources leaking, then don’t use a remote build service.
If it’s a few hours work spare-time, then the small risk of your sources leaking is possibly outweighed by the convenience.
@srikanth_trulyit
I had the same problem. For me the “magic” was to temporarily disable antivirus (KIS).
I think I’ve found 2 bugs:
- converting the ui file to moc file is not working with Qt Creator (workaround: manually use make in commandline)
- Open C seems not to be included in symbian toolchain (compilation of the sym_iap_util.h is not working), but it works in Qt Simulator
Can anybody verify these bugs please, then I’ll add them to bugtracker.
- signing the sis files with Qt Creator is also not working
FYI: building S60 with QMobility: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTSDK-98
