Preprocessor based approach for cross-platform development with Qt quick components

Abstract

In the paper we analyze the obstacles of cross-platform mobile development involving Qt Quick Components library. We provide the classification of the most common issues of such a development and propose resolution for them with the use of the specially developed tool - QML preprocessor. Our approach is proven to be successful in development of two mobile applications supporting both Harmattan and Symbian platforms.
