45 \title Qt for Embedded Platforms
46 \brief Documents related to Qt for Embedded Platforms.
48 Qt is available for embedded platforms and devices as well as for a number
49 of desktop platforms. The features provided for each platform depend on the
50 capabilities and architecture of the operating system.
52 Currently, two embedded platforms are supported by Qt:
57 <td style="width: 40%">Embedded Linux</td>
58 <td style="background: white; width: 5%"></td>
59 <td style="width: 40%">Windows CE</td>
61 \row \o \l{Qt for Embedded Linux} is designed to be used on Linux devices
62 without X11 or existing graphical environments. This flavor of
63 Qt includes a framework for creating both applications and an
64 environment for them. As a result, it includes features for
65 window management, inter-process communication and facilities
66 for handling input and display devices.
68 <td style="background: white; width: 5%"></td>
70 \o \l{Qt for Windows CE} is used to create applications running in
71 existing Windows CE and Windows Mobile environments.
72 Applications use the appropriate style for the embedded
73 environment and use native features, such as menus, to conform
74 to the native style guidelines.
