gerlowskijaelopio: ping13:27
nik90_mzanetti: ping14:07
mzanettinik90_: hey14:12
nik90_mzanetti: hey would it be possible to have a hangout for about 20-30 minutes to pick your brain on a qml c++ plugin?14:13
nik90_mzanetti: doesn't have to be today14:13
nik90_mzanetti: anytime you are free would be nice14:13
mzanettinik90_: sure14:13
nik90_mzanetti: when would you like to have it?14:14
mzanettihmm, maybe a bit later today...14:14
mzanettinik90_: a bit busy atm, can I ping you later about it?14:15
nik90_mzanetti: alrite, ping me when you are free later14:15
mzanettiok14:15
nik90_yeah14:15
bzoltannik90_:  thank you for helping out the folks with the menu probelm :) I was out of network reach.16:07
nik90_bzoltan: no worries :)16:27
bzoltannik90_:  so it seems that the new 3.1.1 release did not mess up anything :)16:51
nik90_bzoltan: yup :)16:51
bzoltannik90_: it is a huge luck that we got the qtc 3.1.1 backported to qt52 ... when it was released with the 5.3 I wonder how long our luck will last. At some point QtC will not be backportable to the LTS16:52
nik90_bzoltan: I can imagine..I have been coding in a 14.10 VM for the past few weeks. I suppose we must update the instructions on developer.ubuntu.com to use a 14.10 VM or release instead of 14.0416:53
nik90_bzoltan: Or even better, provide a downloadable VM that people can use just for development purposes with all the necessary tools ready16:54
nik90_bzoltan: In the future when Unity 8 becomes default, would it be possible to provide QtC+Qt 5.x in a click package that people can install without having to upgrade their OS? That would make it super convenient to stick with one OS version and keep updating the SDK.16:56
bzoltannik90_: Yes, in the confined click world this issue will be different.16:57
bzoltannik90_:  SDK in VM is a trivial solution but to be honest I find it rather unprofessional as a primary method of distribution.16:58
nik90_bzoltan: I agree, but requesting developers to download a development release of Ubuntu which cannot be found so easily is helpful either.16:59
nik90_isn't helpful either*16:59
bzoltannik90_: I think either the co-installation of minor Qt releases should be resolved, or we need to install the Qt to the user space.16:59
bzoltannik90_:  LTS is LTS, so we will never suggest developers to upgrade from LTS to use the SDK17:00
nik90_bzoltan: at the moment, for an external 3rd party app dev, it is confusing to install 14.04 and then realise that he won't get the new headers and other cool sdk features17:00
bzoltannik90_: why would not he get? It is all in the emulator and in the chroot... When a developer installs the Android SDK on OSX is it expected to see all the android APIs on the OSX?17:19
bzoltannik90_: I know it will take time to educate some folks that the development environment and the target environment are two different place17:20
nik90_bzoltan: true that would work17:20
bzoltannik90_:  the problem right now is that we should support not only the phone app development but the desktop app/scope development. Right now we have good target emulator of the phone, but not for the desktop. But it is being worked out :)17:22
nik90_bzoltan: yeah I am waiting for rsalvetti to add support for updating the emulator images on the fly. Currently we have to recreate the emulator to get the latest image17:23
nik90_bzoltan: although I guess this shouldn't be too much of an issue for people targetting the stable images in the future17:24
bzoltannik90_:  yes, it should not be much. The emulator update would be fun.17:29
