(Nokia) Qt SDK 1.1 including Qt Framework 4.7.3 Libraries Released

The Qt team is truly pleased to release the Qt SDK 1.1 for desktop and mobile development.


Using the Qt SDK you benefit from the Qt Creator IDE as a starting point for your development and you can also speed up your development - especially for touch-screens - with Qt Quick. During installation of the Qt SDK, you select the packages you need. In addition you will receive notification when new features and quality updates are available i.e. Qt Creator and / or new targets. No need to make special upgrades or extra downloads.

What is in the Qt SDK 1.1?

  • Qt 4.7.3 for desktop, Qt 4.7.3 for Symbian and Qt 4.7.0 for Maemo/N900
  • Qt Creator 2.1,
  • Qt Mobility 1.1.3
  • Qt simulator
  • Remote compiler supporting Linux and Mac for Nokia supported platforms
  • Symbian toolchain
  • Madde toolchain for N900

Now, all your apps developed with the Qt SDK 1.1 will be accepted into the Ovi Store. Yay!
