porting Facebook Connect for iphone to Qt !

22 Nov

For a past couple of weeks I have been working on porting the facebook connect for iphone to Qt. Since Qt is going to make it big in next few years thanks to both Symbian 4 and Maemo 6 using it as their UI library, it makes a lot of sense to have a facebook  connect library for Qt, but since Facebook cares mostly about the platforms popular in the USA, which are iPhone and may be Android ( though there is no facebook connect for Android ) I took it upon myself to port this to Qt and learn objective-c and sharpen my Qt skills along the way.

the repository is hosted at http://gitorious.org/qfacebookconnect

Currently the project is in copy / paste / compile mode. But once I have all the files compiling I will optimize it for Qt. Please have a look and join if you are interested !

    Hi,

    I would like to know if you are working on this project.

    Is it possible to make concurrent FBRequest on different threads?

    Great port btw.

    Cheers

    I haven’t tried it myself, but you can study the code and see for yourself.

    The port is complete and seems to be working fine i have been using it some apps and it seems to be holding up fine :)
