I think the policy and guideline is pretty simple: For every new
project that Canonical is upstream for, we will default to CMake
(language/runtime-specific build systems aside). With that, all
developers benefit from cross-build support and best possible
integration with the overall system, thereby easing local testing on
devices and in the emulator.
What are the plans for integrating this into QtCreator? So far using the
wizard to create a new Ubuntu application creates a qmake project. Also the
rest of the cmake integration in QtCreator is not quite complete yet.
While I personally like cmake a lot and am happy to use it for projects where
we're upstream, I'm not really sure how this would work for our app
development offering yet.
Are we planning to improve QtCreator's cmake support or will we ship a
QtCreator style arm chroot for compiling qmake projects in there?
click command-line tool has merged support for setting up, managing
and cross-compiling code in chroots.
I believe SDK team is working on integrating both CMake into the
default templates and integrating cross-compile in a click chroot +
install & launch click in the emulator for testing. And Zoltan already
had a PPA up with a preview of some of this work.
