Cascades Development

Hello!

Can I use standard qml elements (like Rectangle) in my cascades-application?

You can use anything for which there is a bb::cascades C++ equivalent.

You can't mix in Qt UI objects.

Can I create standard QML application for upcoming blackberry OS, which has single QML file like this?

import QtQuick 1.1

Rectangle {
anchors.fill: parent
color: "lightblue"

Image {
anchors.fill: parent
souce: "assets/images/flower.png"
}
}

This code is crossplatform and runs on Windows/Linux/Mac/Nokia/Android.
Does blackberry 10 support this? Can I create a project like this?

You can use Qt QML instead of Cascades if that is appropriate for your project.

You give up the deep integration with the OS and the signature Blackberry experience provided through Cascades.
