<p> TQt/Embedded is designed to be reasonably platform-independent. The
|
||
|
only publically available version is a Linux implementation. The
|
||
|
following dependencies will need to be addressed if you intend to port
|
||
|
to another operating system (files that you need to modify are listed
|
||
|
at the end of each section):
|
||
|
<p> <ul>
|
||
|
<p> <li> <b>System V IPC</b> (shared memory and semaphores) is used to share
|
||
|
window regions between client and server. You will need to provide
|
||
|
something similar unless you want a single-application setup (i.e.
|
||
|
running only one program, which is the server). System V semaphores
|
||
|
are also used for synchronising access to the framebuffer.
|
||
|
<p> Modify <tt>qwindowsystem_qws.cpp</tt>, <tt>qwsregionmanager_qws.cpp</tt>, <tt>qapplication_qws.cpp</tt>, and <tt>qlock_qws.cpp</tt>.
|
||
|
<p> <li> <b>Unix-domain sockets</b> are used to communicate things like
|
||
|
keyboard events, requests to raise windows and TQCOP messages between
|
||
|
applications. Again, you will need to provide something similar unless
|
||
|
you want a single-application setup. It should be possible to
|
||
|
implement something like this using message queues or similar
|
||
|
mechanisms; with the exception of TQCOP messages (which are generated
|
||
|
by client applications and not TQt/Embedded) individual messages should
|
||
|
be no more than a few bytes in length.
|
||
|
<p> Modify <tt>qwssocket_qws.cpp</tt>.
|
||
|
<p> <li> <b>The Linux framebuffer device</b> is used to map in the drawing
|
||
|
area. You will need to replace it (by creating a new class of <a href="qscreen.html">TQScreen</a>)
|
||
|
with something else giving a byte pointer to a memory-mapped
|
||
|
framebuffer, plus information about width, height and bit depth (which
|
||
|
most likely you can simply hard-code). If your framebuffer is not
|
||
|
memory-mapped or is in an unsupported format or depth you will need to
|
||
|
modify TQGfxRaster as well.
|
||
|
<p> Modify <tt>qgfxlinuxfb_qws.cpp</tt>.
|
||
|
<p> <li> <b>The accelerated drivers</b> currently use the Linux TQScreen and use
|
||
|
<tt>/proc/bus/pci</tt> to map in PCI config space. However, these are only
|
||
|
example drivers; you will probably need to write your own driver in
|
||
|
any case, and you will need to provide your own way to map in control
|
||
|
registers.
|
||
|
<p> Modify <tt>qgfxmach64_qws.cpp</tt>, <tt>qgfxvoodoo_qws.cpp</tt> and <tt>qgfxmatrox_qws.cpp</tt>.
|
||
|
<p> <li> <b>Sound</b> uses a Linux <tt>/dev/dsp</tt> style device. If you want to use
|
||
|
the TQt/Embedded sound server you'll need to reimplement it.
|
||
|
<p> Modify <tt>qsoundqss_qws.cpp</tt>.
|
||
|
<p> <li> <b>select()</b> is used to implement TQSocketDevices and listen for
|
||
|
events to/from the TQt/Embedded server application.
|
||
|
<p> Modify <tt>qapplication_qws.cpp</tt>.
|
||
|
<p> </ul>
|
||
|
<p> TQt/Embedded makes use of the standard C library and some Posix functions.
|
||
|
Mostly the latter are concentrated in platform dependent code anyway
|
||
|
(e.g. mmap() to map in the Linux framebuffer).
