QT Software renames platform
QT Software, a provider of software platforms for building graphic user interfaces, has re-launched the Qtopia platform as Qt Extended 4.4, reports TMCnet.
QT Extended 4.4 is a software platform for creating user interfaces and applications for advanced consumer electronics based on Linux. It can be used to build innovative services and applications, which can then be extended across all major desktop, mobile and other embedded platforms without rewriting the code.
The Qt WebKit Integration feature of the software enables device manufacturers to enrich applications with live Web content such as online maps, music stores and instant messaging.
