[Ctk-developers] Barcelona hackfest progress

[Sascha Zelzer]

Hi,

thanks for pointing out the Qt Service Framework. However, it is not
related to Web Services. It provides means to realize a service oriented
architecture on one machine (not distributed), where service means
having an interface class and multiple implementations against it. The
CTK Plugin Framework already uses the QtMobility Service Framework to
provide support for "declarative services".

In QtMobilitiy 1.0 all services and service users have to run in the
same process. In Qt Mobility 1.1 there will be support for
out-of-process services. However, backends for the IPC communication
will only be available for mobile platforms, see
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtmobility-1.1-tp/ . When 1.1 is released, we
could think about writing a SOAP backend, which would probably mean that
we have to write similar code as we had to do with QtSOAP (providing a
TCP server which deserializes incoming soap messages into Qt datatypes
and vice versa).

Best,

Sascha
