* iOS: implement requestWindowOrientationRichard Moe Gustavsen2013-02-271-3/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The application is normally supposed to rotate the content on its own, but can call requestWindowOrientation to ask the window manager to do it instead. This way of integrating orientation with the OS is fragile, because: 1. In some cases, you cannot stop the OS from rotating at all (tablets). 2. It would be more safe to inform the window manager up-front which orientations it could rotate into, rather that relying on a function you call call to force this later on. 3. When the QML application starts, its a bit late to inform the platform plugin that it supports e.g landscape. If the OS is in landscape already, the plugin must still assume that the app operates in portrait (doing rotating on its own) until requestWindowOrientation is called. This might cause the app to first start up in portrait, just to rotate into landscape. On iOS, it seems like we can handle the first two cases. The third need some more investigation. We should anyway investigate if we need some adjustment to the Qt API. Change-Id: I50638b78d469ab70820a787de86a2f1981470786 Reviewed-by: Tor Arne Vestbø <tor.arne.vestbo@digia.com>
* iOS: add QIOSViewControllerRichard Moe Gustavsen2013-02-271-0/+60
We need our own viewcontroller to better control which orientations iOS can enter, and also ito be able to stop auto-rotation. We stop auto-rotation to happend by default, since this is how Qt wants it (it is seen as the responsibility of the application).
