Building Applications for Symbian^1 with Qt SDK 1.1

Description

Due to "a bug at Qt SDK 1.1":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTSDK-702 qmake generates pkg files which does not include support for Symbian^1 (Symbian S60 5th Edition). As a result a compatibility warning is displayed during installation of the sis file of the application on Symbian^1 devices and application cannot be published for them in Nokia Ovi Store.

Workaround

The bug is still not resolved but there is a workaround. To fix it go to 1Qt473\mkspecs\features\symbian\default_post.prf and replace the following code:

<br /># Supports Symbian^3 and Symbian^4 by default and also S60 3.1, 3.2, and 5.0 if built against any of those.<br />platform_product_id = S60ProductID<br />platform_product_id = $$addLanguageDependentPkgItem(platform_product_id)<br />pkg_platform_dependencies =  &quot;; Default HW/platform dependencies&amp;quot;  &quot;[0x20022E6D],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}&quot;  &quot;[0x20032DE7],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}&quot;<br />contains(S60_VERSION, 3.1)|contains(S60_VERSION, 3.2)|contains(S60_VERSION, 5.0) {<br /> pkg_platform_dependencies +=  &quot;[0x102032BE],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}&quot;  &quot;[0x102752AE],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}&quot;  &quot;[0x1028315F],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}&quot;<br />}<br />

with

<br /># Supports Symbian^1, Symbian^3 and Symbian^4<br />platform_product_id = S60ProductID<br />platform_product_id = $$addLanguageDependentPkgItem(platform_product_id)<br />pkg_platform_dependencies =  &quot;; Default HW/platform dependencies&amp;quot;  &quot;; Symbian^1 (aka S60 5th Edition) &quot;  &quot;[0x1028315F],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}&quot;  &quot;; Symbian^3&amp;quot;  &quot;[0x20022E6D],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}&quot;  &quot;; Symbian^4&amp;quot;  &quot;[0x20032DE7],0,0,0,{$$platform_product_id}&quot;<br />

The modified code will allow you to build applications compatible to Symbian^1 (Symbian S60 5th Edition), Symbian^3 and Symbian^4.
