Stellarium

lp:~stellarium/stellarium/qt54-qtify

Created by gzotti and last modified

This branch is aimed at converting Stellarium towards using Qt5.4 classes properly. I (GZ) feel a change towards QtQuick2 is required ASAP, but I am lacking both experience and time, and am stuck at this point. Anybody more at home in the Qt classes jungle please help getting this to work!

Things I feel necessary:
 - Abandon deprecated QtDeclarative, use QtQuick2 (CMakefile has been converted already)

 - Adapt StelMainView accordingly. Since Qt5.3 there is a QQuickWidget which may be the best successor for QDeclarativeView. (Partially done, but I am stuck here).
 http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtquick-porting-qt5.html

 - Create a proper window/widget ... that can initialize as either OpenGL, OpenGL ES or OpenGl/Mesa as described here:
http://blog.qt.digia.com/blog/2014/11/27/qt-weekly-21-dynamic-opengl-implementation-loading-in-qt-5-4/

 - Adhere to Qt standards regarding deriving gl... callers from QtOpenGLFunctions (Todo)
