This repo contains a QPA plugin to make Qt a Mir server. Handy way to grab dependencies is with: $ sudo mk-build-deps -ir debian/control To use, compile and install with: $ qmake $ make $ sudo make install To enable debug output, replace the single "qmake" command with $ qmake CONFIG+=debug (is good to "make clean" beforehand) To avoid building the tests (to speed up the build): $ qmake CONFIG+=no_tests To test, enter the demos directory, run: $ export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=mirserver then run the Qt application of your choice (qmlscene best). As example, try $ qmlscene qml-demo-shell/qml-demo-shell.qml and then try running an application: $ mir_demo_client_egltriangle --desktop_file_hint=/usr/share/applications/gallery-app.desktop or $ export QT_QPA_PLATFORM=ubuntumirclient $ qmlscene qml-demo-client/qml-demo-client.qml --desktop_file_hint=/usr/share/click/preinstalled/com.ubuntu.calendar/0.4.172/calendar-app.desktop where the desktop file hint specifies an existing file.
