Playbook development with Cascades

Hi,

 

I would like to know if I can develop applications to Playbook using cascades. I know that I can not deploy,

but I am not sure what I need to start developing with Cascades on Playbook. I am using PlayBook OS 2.1. Can I run and test applications on device? 

 

Regards, Flavio

Re: Playbook development with Cascades

Right now you can't test any cascade code on your PB, but you still can code on the bb10 platform and test it on the DevAlpha simulator. You code is going to work on the PB whenever the bb10 platform comes out for the PB.

Yes, I am sad too.

I know that libbb was separated into several lib files. Can somebody give more info how far did he/she come?

Re: Playbook development with Cascades

I tried for several hours.  Even went as far (for a test) of copying EVERY library into a "lib" directory and still it didn't work.  The app starts but the screen is totally blank.

 

 

Decided to get the "real" QT library to work in Momentics (with the PB as well as the SIM).  So I will continue on 10.0.4 for the initial release and then switch the UI over to full QTQuick for the next release, since it is going to be a while before we officially have Cascades on the PB

Re: Playbook development with Cascades

I also succeed to get "blank" screen, and nothing more with 10.0.6 when trying on Playbook. App seems to be working, i get debugs output into console but UI is blank.
