New app from old

[ Edited ]

Hi,

 

I have the same app for mobile phones that is done from Java, Java for Android and Qt C++  (no QML)  and I wonder what is the best to port it to blackberry phones with OTA installation feature.

 

What are the pros and cons please ?

For current BlackBerry phones you will want to use Java.

 

For the future BlackBerry 10 phones you will want to use Qt.

thank you for this.

 

From your answer I assume then that there is no unique solution, does this implies that currently it's not possible to port my Qt now but  it will only work for future models only ?

 

In addition, Qt for BB seems to be adapted only through a personal/ community project only, I thought RIM or Nokia/Trolltech should have done it themselves

Re: New app from old

Ok didn't know that this is the official port.

 

From your blog, to be honest I'm a bit lost: qt and OTA in research didn't showed me anything.

 

thanks anyway
