Current release: SoQt 1.4.1
Released 2006-10-31
SoQt 1.4.1 is a patchlevel release, meaning there are no updates to the public interface. Changes from previous release are primarily bugfixes. Not that many since SoQt 1.4.0 is not that old, but in particular, one critical one was fixed. Anyone using 1.4.0 or had planned to soon is strongly adviced to upgrade to 1.4.1.
Project Description
- Project resources
Qt is a C++ toolkit for multiplatform development of 2D user interfaces, and also includes other functionality to help programmers write multiplatform applications. Qt is currently available on X11-based systems (UNIX, Linux and BSDs), MSWindows, Mac OS X and embedded systems. SoQt is compatible with Qt 3 and 4.
For more information on the Qt toolkit, see Trolltech's website.By using the combination of Coin, Qt and SoQt for your 3D applications, you have a framework for writing completely portable software across the whole range of UNIX, Linux, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X operating systems. Coin, Qt and SoQt makes this possible from a 100% common codebase, which means there is a minimum of hassle for developers when working on multiplatform software, with the resulting large gains in productivity.
SoQt, like Coin and Qt, provides the programmer with a high-level application programmer's interface (API) in C++. The library primarily includes a class-hierarchy of viewer components of varying functionality and complexity, with various modes for the end-user to control the 3D-scene camera interaction.
