[12:53] <mike00> hi all. How can I get the week day in a QML qmake app?
[12:59] <mike00> and I have a problem with qmake. it seems every project I create is corrupted: in the desktop file there is an underscore before the Name property (examples: "_Name=App") and when I execute the project on the phone a message saying "could not find Desktop file" appears... what can I do?
[13:00] <mike00> and I can't use image: I can see image on the pc but on the phone a message says me the image link isn't correct...
[13:01] <mike00> now I copy the desktop file in the "build-App-Ubuntu_Device_GCC_armhf_ubuntu_sdk_15_04_vivid-Debug/App" directory and it seems work
[13:01] <mike00> but if I copy image I can't see them
[13:35] <mike00> is there anybody that can help me please?
[14:22] <mike00> why in this channel there isn't anybody?
[14:23]  * ogra_ sees 133 people
[14:30] <mike00> 133 people in this channel and nobody can answer me???
[14:33] <ogra_> not everyone is looking at IRC all day :)
[14:33] <ogra_> (also ... see the channnel topic)
[14:40] <mike00> I'm trying to develop some app for ubuntu touch...
[14:40] <mike00> but the ubuntu sdk doesn't seems working very well
[14:42] <mike00> does the topic says to make apps? I'm trying to do it
[14:45] <kalikiana> mike00: It does. I think it was a hint to use appdevs to highlight folks
[14:47] <mike00> sorry kalikiana, I don't understand. I don't speak english very well...
[14:49] <kalikiana> If you use "appdevs" when asking for help, developers see that
[14:49] <kalikiana> It's like using a nickname, but for all who have enabled that word
[14:49] <ogra_> right, that is why i pointed to the channel topic :)
[14:49] <mike00> ok thanks
[14:50] <ogra_> ..."Use keyword "appdevs" to highlight developers if they're around."...
[14:52] <popey> mike00: maybe push a branch somewhere that we can see
[14:52] <popey> or zip it up or something
[14:54] <mike00> where can I upload a zip?
[14:56] <mike00> popey?
[15:02] <JanC> mike00: do you have web space provided by your ISP, or a service like Google Drive/Dropbox/similar?
[15:02] <mike00> Yes, I didn't think it. thanks
[15:04] <mike00> https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2ohkzUDkoDRbVZYUUJ0S2p4QzA
[15:06] <mike00> appdevs, here is a new project I just create. as you can see, the untiled.desktop file as an underscore before _Name=untitled
[15:09] <popey> that _Name seems normal to me
[15:09] <popey> other apps do that
[15:13] <DanChapman> mike00, the _ is for translations.
[15:14] <mike00> ah thanks
[15:14] <mike00> but when I try to execute on the phone that project it says there is no desktop file...
[15:19] <mike00> appdevs, how can I do? there is the desktop file and on the pc the app run perfectly, but not on the phone...
[15:24] <mike00> appdevs: I copy the desktop file in build-untiled-Ubuntu_Device_GCC_armhf_ubuntu_sdk_15_04_vivid-Debug/untiled and now I can run the project on the phone. I don't think that's the right way to run the app..
[15:24] <popey> strange
[15:24] <popey> maybe bzoltan or zbenjamin can help?
[15:25] <bzoltan> mike00: I can help... but let me first figure out few things about your setup
[15:26] <bzoltan> mike00: 1) apt-cache policy ubuntu-sdk-ide
[15:26] <bzoltan> mike00: 2) what is the selected Kit
[15:26] <mike00> bzoltan: what can I tell you of the output?
[15:27] <mike00> http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/17145365/ the output of apt-cache policy ubuntu-sdk-ide
[15:28] <bzoltan> mike00:  3) what is the project type? cmake, qmake .pro or qmlproject?
[15:28] <mike00> bzoltan: qmake. I preffered qmlproject but it isn't supported...
[15:28] <bzoltan> mike00: 1) you have the right IDE installed :) first checkbox checked
[15:29] <mike00> bzoltan: I use Ubuntu Device (GCC armhf-ubuntu-sdk-15.04-vivid)
[15:29] <mike00> I reinstalled today the SDK...
[15:35] <mike00> bzoltan: the kit I use was created automatically when I connected the phone the first time...
[15:36] <bzoltan> mike00: That is fine
[15:37] <mike00> ok
[15:37] <bzoltan> mike00:  and you have the device plugged in, right?
[15:37] <mike00> yes
[15:37] <bzoltan> mike00:  and you have opened a template?
[15:38] <mike00> template?
[15:38] <mike00> sorry I didn't understand
[15:42] <mike00> I have the ubuntu SDK opened with a project opened
[15:43] <bzoltan> mike00:  I see the project... it is a clean template project you have created from the IDE. Is that correct?
[15:43] <mike00> bzoltan: what do you mean with template? I'm not English so I can't understand some things...
[15:44] <mike00> yeah. I create the project and then I published it, without editing it
[15:44] <bzoltan> mike00:  i am not English eaither :) no worries. So you have created the project with the IDE, right?
[15:44] <mike00> bzoltan: yes
[15:45] <bzoltan> mike00:  okey
[15:47] <mike00> bzoltan: but it isn't a big problem if I have to copy the desktop file. the  biggest problem is that the link to image that works on the pc, doesn't work on the phone: so I can't see images
[15:49] <bzoltan> mike00:  the desktop file should be placed by the build and package creation
[15:49] <bzoltan> mike00:  what image you do not see?
[15:50] <mike00> bzoltan: not in this project
[15:50] <bzoltan> mike00:  If you add a file to the project you need to make sure that the file is listed in the .pro
[15:51] <bzoltan> mike00:  like
[15:51] <bzoltan> CONF_FILES +=  untitled.apparmor \
[15:51] <bzoltan>                untitled.png
[15:51] <mike00> I didn't know it
[15:51] <mike00> bzoltan: where should I write it?
[15:52] <bzoltan> mike00:  open the .pro in the IDE and simple add the image file to the list
[15:53] <mike00> which list?
[15:53] <bzoltan> mike00: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/17146084/
[15:54] <bzoltan> mike00:  hold on... correction comes :)
[15:54] <mike00> bzoltan: ok. I was looking into the wrong .pro file...
[15:54] <bzoltan> mike00:  like this http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/17146125/
[15:55] <mike00> Thanks very much bzoltan !!!
[15:58] <mike00> bzoltan but Now I have another problem with another project: when I click "run" on the sdk to run the project on the phone, the phone seems restart the system and the project isn't executed
[15:58] <mike00> https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B2ohkzUDkoDRVnZWeU1LRkhmeUE
[16:01] <mike00> bzoltan: i get this in the application output http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/17146309/
[16:02] <mike00> when the output arrive at "Sdk-Launcher> Communication directory: /home/phablet/.local/share/school.mymike/" on the phone appears the screen when it is switching on (the word ubuntu with the 5 points)
[16:03] <bzoltan> mike00:  Wow... that is a bug in the shell
[16:03] <bzoltan> mike00:  is that project what you uploaded?
[16:04] <mike00> it happend with both the projects
[16:05] <mike00> the untiled project was only an example
[16:06] <mike00> but I'm working on the school project, bzoltan
[16:07] <mike00> When I started working this afternoon I can execute the apps perfectly (copying the desktop file) but it's only now that the phone has started restarting itself, bzoltan
[16:08] <bzoltan> mike00:  let me check that app
[16:09] <mike00> ok
[16:11] <bzoltan> mike00:  I could start the application without problem.  But I am on a fairly new release of the Ubuntu touch
[16:11] <bzoltan> mike00:  I would suggest to update the phone and reboot. No idea what the trouble is. I am sorry for your experience
[16:13] <mike00> bzoltan: how can I update the phone? I have OTA 11
[16:13] <mike00> and I tried restarting the phone
[16:14] <aldrog> mike00, I had similar problem, solved by changing _Name to just Name in .desktop file
[16:14] <aldrog> not sure why it happened and what is the proper solution
[16:14] <aldrog> but it worked
[16:15] <mike00> thanks aldrog, I'll try
[16:16] <mike00> It works. thanks very much aldrog
[16:20] <aldrog> mike00, np :)
[16:21] <mike00> :-)
[16:27] <mike00> thanks to all (in particular aldrog and bzoltan). now my app work well with images :)
[18:24] <dpm> popey, quick question if you're around: do we have a fat package of Terminal, so that it can be installed on the unity8 desktop via the apps scope?
[18:25] <dpm> (if you're still around)
[18:33] <dpm> nm, I figured it out looking at the store: it seems we dropped the multi-arch package in the last 2 uploads, but the older click with amd64/x86 build should be available for desktop systems
