IRC log of #harmattan for Saturday, 2011-10-01

lardmanqml gurus, I guess it's possible to change an Image element's source property at runtime and it will automatically load the new image?00:00
specialcorrect00:00
Stskeepsspecial: have you ever played with weird stuff like LLVM?00:00
specialStskeeps: not directly. Why?00:00
Stskeepsspecial: i have a crazy idea..00:01
Stskeeps:P00:01
lardmancool, thanks00:01
* lardman must now work out what he's done to prevent that happening00:01
specialwith LLVM, hmm..00:01

ajalkaneToo bad LLVM can not be used to have a kind efficient VM for CPU agnostic C/C++ code.00:19
SpeedEviltccboot00:20
ajalkaneAbout Tizen and HTML5 the only thing that makes sense to me is that the exact same program will run on ARM and Intel CPUs.00:20
SpeedEvilWhich is awesome, because it avoids the writer having to recompile it twice.00:21
ajalkanehehe... well, I think in practice devs are a lazy bunch of people. So N-amount of CPU architectures in practice means fragmentation if it's up to the devs to do cross-compiling.00:22
berndhsmost user-level applications are completely unaware of what CPU they run on00:22
ajalkaneSure they are, but most SDKs compile to specific CPU architecture. Of course if the SDK compiles and packages at the same time for all relevant architectures the problem is gone. But I guess that's not realistic, even though Apple I think has something like that00:24
berndhsI don't think there is a good way of making a single package for all ARM versions00:25
berndhswhat Apple does is just ship a bunch of copies in the same file00:25
ajalkaneAh, the different ARM versions... I'm only vaguely aware that there might be problems between ARM architectures.00:26
berndhsARM gives you the benefit of a wide variety of CPUs00:27
ajalkaneAnyway, it can get hairy quickly, so that's the part I understand about going with HTML5.00:28
ajalkaneEspecially I understand Intel pushing HTML5. ARM is the dominant mobile architecture at the moment, but if the apps are done in HTML5 it's a non-issue to change to x86 when they're mature enough00:29
wmaroneor whenever Intel gets their power consumption down to the point that it's viable in a handset00:30
* SpeedEvil looks at his intel mobile device that gets 12h battery life when on.00:31
SpeedEvil(386ex, Garmin GPS12)00:31
ajalkaneI'm kind of divided on this whole native/VM/interpreted code on handsets. On one hand I think it's foolish to waste energy on running VM on handsets. On the other hand is that doing it that way gives platform agnosticism00:32
berndhspeople in the high-tech industries at the leading edge are very adverse to change00:32
berndhsonce they find one way of doing things, they tend to stick with it00:32
berndhsI find that strange00:32
ajalkaneTo make it even more puzzling, harmattan is "native", yet if you use QML you pretty much go into the interpreted power wasting territory, yet get none of the portability advantages.00:32
SpeedEvilWell - there is increasing abstraction from hardware, whihc is indeed almost as bad as VMs00:33
leinirajalkane: so... are you doing any business logic in your qml?00:33
leinirbecause then you're doing it wrong ;)00:33
leinir(no matter what the marketing drones will tell you)00:33
berndhsI made a few applications in Qt/QML, they run find on my x86_64 fedora machine and on a N950-harmattan00:33
berndhsso I don't know what the big deal is with the architecture00:34
ajalkaneleinir: no I'm not doing any business logic, but most mobile software are dead stupid (IMO) on business logic.00:34
ajalkaneI mean, I do as little as possible in QML00:34
ajalkaneyet if I'd profile the app I'd be surprised if in normal usage the QML part wasn't using the most power.00:35
TSCHAKeeesigh.00:35
ajalkaneOf course this is highly application specific.00:35
leinirSo.. have you actually profiled it?00:35
* TSCHAKeee walks away from this conversation. another asshole talking out of his...ass...00:35
leinirOr are you, in fact, just ranting aimlessly ;)00:36
SpeedEvilThen there is the fun part of GPU accellerated shininess.00:36
SpeedEvilIf your app needs to refresh the screen while it's asleep - the power goes way up, as you drop to sftware.00:36
ajalkaneNo I haven't. But since at the moment the app just wakes up once in a while to do calculations, it's not going to spend much time in C++. The UI part where user does stuff should be more demanding. Just guess work, so maybe I'm worrying about nothing.00:37
ajalkaneHaha, basically yes I'm ranting aimlessly. Or more accurately, voicing my worries that might have no real basis. publicly.00:37
leinirGood, good, just so we know where we stand *giggles* :)00:38
TSCHAKeeethe Qt engineers have been doing ridiculous amounts of work making QML faster and faster with each iteration.00:38
MohammadAGdoesn't change the fact it's interpretted00:39
MohammadAG13.6MBs of RAM for an IRC app is a lot00:40
TSCHAKeeethat's okay for some parts of software. So far, we've been able to keep our QML extremely fast00:40
*** djszapi has joined #harmattan00:40
*** djszapi has left #harmattan00:40
TSCHAKeeeMohammadAG: and how much java app development have you done? ;)00:40
MohammadAGeven at startup?00:41
MohammadAGnone00:41
MohammadAGI only do C/C++00:41
ajalkaneI'm just playing devil's advocate here, and raising my own suspicions here... but I don't see what's the difference between QML and JavaScript? I don't mean in programming efficiency, but in power consumption etc.00:41
TSCHAKeee...00:41
ajalkaneThere's been much work making JS more efficient, just like QML00:42
Stskeepsajalkane: qml uses javascript00:42
ajalkaneIf I dislike using JS as main API on mobiles because it's interpreted and inefficient, why am I not doing the same with using QML?00:42
TSCHAKeeeyou mean, that other than the fact that QML is...a declarative list of properties....JavaScript is an imperative scripting language?00:42
ajalkaneI know Stskeeps00:42
*** khertan has joined #harmattan00:43
Stskeepsi guess it's DOM vs QML rather00:43
ajalkaneTSCHAKeee: that's true. I can't claim to know what are the real tradeoffs with QML. But I do know that QML based apps start MUCH slower than MTF based, and use much more memory.00:44
ajalkaneStskeeps: good point00:45
StskeepsDOM has to support a lot of old shit, qml doesn't have to00:45
Stskeeps:P00:45
ajalkaneYeah. I do like QML. Never liked DOM :).00:46
Stskeepsand i guess qml might be made with eventual scenegraph in mind00:47
berndhsif they would just compile the QML, its static anyway for most cases00:47
ajalkaneI hope, and believe, that there's still much that can be optimized in QML.00:49
berndhsmy impression is that 4.8 is a lot faster than 4.7 on the same machine00:49
ajalkaneNice. On N950 I have no qualms about the speed of QML based apps. But the starting time of them is irritating. If that can be improved, great.00:50
lardmanhmm, is one not supposed to use the Label component?: The Label component is used to display textual information throughout the UI. The Label is a private component and not intended for 3rd party developers.00:54
ajalkanelardman: documentation mistake. Ignore it.00:54

Stskeepslardman: so what do people typically code DSP with? C?01:05
Stskeepsor how does it look01:05
*** khertan has joined #harmattan01:07
SpeedEvilC can be used, in some cases01:09
Stskeepsbut i guess there's no typical standard for it01:09
Stskeepslike common dsp functions01:10
SpeedEvilAs far as I'm aware no, but it's really not an area I've been involved with01:10
lardmanStskeeps: yeah01:15
lardmanC or ASM, or probably C then ASM optimisations01:15
*** briglia has quit IRC01:15
Stskeepsk01:15
*** trx has quit IRC01:16
lardmanDSP functions, on the Ti stuff at least are either macros that wrap asm calls or calls into a library provided with the chip01:16
lardmane.g. calls to do jpeg operations and the like which are pretty standard01:16
lardmanStskeeps: why do you ask?01:18
Stskeepslardman: just crazy ideas01:18
Stskeepsnoticed llvm had a potential c64x backend01:18
lardmanIn fact you'll probably find that people code with MATLAB, then use the realtime target to generate asm for the chip01:19
lardmanoh right, interesting01:19

sivanghey Stskeeps10:06
sivangI'm interested to know how the ssh root@localhost provides "real" root ? (nice thing about it one can do it on the device itself)10:06
Stskeepsprobably not, less privileges10:07
sivangStskeeps: right, not a problem, but much better than devel-su / develsh et al10:07
sivangStskeeps: reboot can only be issued from ssh10:07
sivangStskeeps: trying to understand the difference in ENV10:07
Stskeepsmm10:07
sivangalso, the deelsh seems to not be trusted even though it comes from Nokia sources10:07
sivangwhich breaks my whole upgrade, anyone an idea to solve this?10:08

SpeedEvilsivang: however, if you're just using tiles, then if you get a very popular app, you face getting banned - as the tileservers are a resource for mappers.13:34

sivangSpeedEvil: from OSMs ?13:34
sivangSpeedEvil: hmm, so I need a different solution13:34

sivangDocScrutinizer: let's add a IMPORTANT note that before trying latest upgrade, make sure you are on fw 34-2 and only then do it14:13
djszapiVenemo: there was also a guy (clearly remembering), he could not make a debian package from clean build, and was saying, it must be aegis. I spent couple of hours with him, and after that he said, oh I did a clean build and it is not okay.14:13
Venemo:D14:13
sivangRST38h, djszapi , Venemo : we would overcome this. We have an amazing product14:13
RST38hVenemo: Nokia should have fired lawyers and platsec peoplefirst, but looks like they started with the marketing14:14
sivangRST38h, djszapi , Venemo : We have passion for it14:14
djszapiVenemo: there was a guy swearing aegis for /hours/, and the problem was that he changed the hashbang to a wrong one in the maintainer script14:14
Venemodjszapi, in fact, I still admire your patience that you display for these kinds of people.14:14
sivangdjszapi: how did he get a device?14:14
djszapiVenemo: so general debian packaging issue, but was swearing about aegis, and many stories like that I could enumerate I experienced :D :D14:14

sivangI think a shall test and a small c coding test would have been in place for getting the device :-p14:14

sivangRST38h: but I did not power up my device since I got it, as I had to deal with other non important stuff like real life before I could attend to it properly.14:17
djszapiVenemo: there was also a guy, who did not like something, and we changed the policy according to his idea, and he still kept swearing :D :D :D14:17

Venemomhmm14:32
Venemook14:32
djszapisivang: for the record and so as to understand the reason why you need to new the new firmware with the new SDK /all the time/: You have an old firmware containing a develsh from trusted source. We did it that way that time according to the OVI requirements, and then actually we realized it is /very/ huge security risk, so that we put it into unknown origin, and we extended with the proper OVI capabilities to get it work. If you could overwrite any syste14:37

sivangdjszapi: why was having the old fw with develsh from trusted source a risk?14:54
sivangI understand fast wheh explained slow :)14:55
RST38hThe average user does not know what package, source, or platform security is14:55
RST38hAnd never will.14:55
SpeedEvilAegis is not user security.14:55
RST38hYeah14:55
sivanga malicious software could try and replace system packates14:56
RST38hBut djszapi would like us to believe it is for our benefit14:56
sivangthat the user installs14:56
SpeedEvilsivang: yes - whereas an app that reads other apps files, and sends them over the internet is clearly risk free, as long as it can't replace system files.14:56

*** seif has quit IRC14:58
*** djszapi has left #harmattan14:58
SpeedEvilWhen this is a small fraction of the threats against the user, and aegis does not address many of them.14:58
sivangdjszapi: I am really trying to understand now, so I have a package that has all the capabilties, named develsh14:58
*** seif has joined #harmattan14:59
sivangSpeedEvil: so if I have a trusted pacakge, develsh, on an old fw, the new one cannot be determined to be trusted since the fw needs new knowledge to know that?14:59
sivangSpeedEvil: what other threats are there that are not adderssed?15:00
*** seif has quit IRC15:00
*** seif has joined #harmattan15:00
SpeedEvilsivang: Aegis has things that it requires credentials for. If and only if these credentials are actually reviewed by the store team is this important. Otherwise the only limits on the actions an app from the store can do are the global limits on tokens no store app can have.15:01
SpeedEvilIn addition, there are no tokens required for some things - opening files that are not in the protected datastore.15:02
sivangSpeedEvil: so what is then the explenation for requireing a new fw to install new pkgs? Why is the new develsh pkg not trusted while it comes fro the trusted source?15:03
sivangSpeedEvil: and why would not those creds be reviewed by the store team?15:03
SpeedEvilsivang: I've no idea as to that, sorry.15:04
sivangSpeedEvil: so what are you actually saying?15:04
*** Smith has quit IRC15:04
* sivang is lost in the dark...15:04
SpeedEvilThis is more general comments about the fact that aegis is not a user security thing, it's a platform security thing. It can be a user security thing in limited areas, where the app uses the protected datastore.15:05
SpeedEvilAnd it does prevent overwiting of system packages, which is a legitimate security concern.15:06
sivangSpeedEvil: well, to my poor understanding, if an app uses a protected datastore, then it should eb constraints, if not, then there's not much it can threaten the user no?15:06
SpeedEvilWell, apart from turn the camera and mic on, read all your files outside the datastore and send them to china.15:07
RST38hand that apparently covers all YOUR files15:07
RST38hNokia's and your phone provider's files stay safe15:08
SpeedEvilYou can have apps which store data inside the protected datastore.15:08
SpeedEvilAnd that data is safe.15:08
RST38hThis includes locking, branding, and forced advertising15:08
sivangSpeedEvil: right, so is app's fault15:08
sivangSpeedEvil: I'm quite sure OVI will mandate before publish that app uses the safe store15:08
SpeedEvilsivang: Err - no.15:08
sivangSpeedEvil: if you are using an app that does not use the safe store, I'd take it as my fault.15:09
sivangs/you/I/15:09
infobotsivang meant: SpeedEvil: if I are using an app that does not use the safe store, I'd take it as my fault.15:09
SpeedEvilMany, many apps in the store are using ordinary files.15:09
sivangSpeedEvil: in the N9 versions?15:09
sivang*their15:09
SpeedEvilAnd the stuff on mydocs can never be protected15:09
RST38hNot "many", rather something between "most" and "all"15:09
sivanginteresting15:09
* sivang thinks to write OVI to make this as an QA requirement15:10
SpeedEvilBut they can't easily.15:10
RST38hAnyway, the whole aegis thing is a lawyer-inspired pestilence15:10
sivangSpeedEvil: why not ?15:10
SpeedEvilAs aegis does not require a credential for file access.15:10
SpeedEvilSo it's not automatically picked up as a credential, and would require a source code review.15:10
sivangSpeedEvil: so they cannot know when an app access the safe store?15:10
RST38hWill be broken as soon as someone gets to spend a bit of quality time with the final firmware15:11
SpeedEvilWhen it accesses the 'normal' filesystem.15:11
sivangI see.15:11
SpeedEvilThe safe store can have per-app keys, ...15:11
sivangso what is the real purpose for Aegis according to what you think?15:11
SpeedEvilPreventing users overwriting platform software.15:12
sivanglike iPhone and Adnroid do?15:12
SpeedEvilI don't know enough about those patforms to meaningfully comment.15:13
sivangokay, for me it sounds legite enough anyways.15:13
sivangI'm sure there's a way to go through the fopen calls and see they are not in the safe store15:13
sivangand reject the app on QA.15:13
sivangthis can be done even with ar or something15:14
SpeedEvilThat's the whole point of aegis.15:14
SpeedEvilSome system calls are trapped and only allowed if you've got the credential.15:14
sivangI have a hunch they might add it, it is not there for nothing15:14
SpeedEvilHowever - fopen, and many, many other calls aren't.15:14
sivangSpeedEvil: so they just add another syscall trap for file opens15:14
SpeedEvilThat would be a rather large change, and either every app would need it, or you'd need to introduce another list of files and subdirectories each app could access without it.15:15
sivangyou could symlink and sink storage all into the safe store15:16
sivangand the number of apps fpr the evice is still not that large.15:16
sivanganyway15:16
sivangbackup time.15:16
SpeedEvilSure - aegis could be made into a user security tool. It's just not one at the moment in many senses.15:18

javispedromay I ask what do you want to do either way?17:15
tarantismI'm writing a music app and it's the only way I can see to get low latency.17:15
javispedrothat's surprising17:16
tarantismwhy so?17:16
javispedrodo you know you can store samples on the server?17:16
tarantismI did know that but I can't interrupt/modify the playback17:16
javispedrohm, good point17:17
tarantismIf you want to synthesise samples on the fly, it really has to be RT17:17
tarantismor high latency17:17
javispedroWhat I find surprising is that you were able to decrease latency by a custom module17:18
piggzis there somewhere a list of all the harmattan platform toolbar icon names?17:19
tarantismYes, nice and quick. It makes your phone playable!17:19
tarantismYou can ask for short time frames from a client and get low latency17:19
tarantismbut because your process might be interrupted for 100s ms at a time, you get glitches17:20
tarantismin a module, you have RT priority so can keep up with eg 10ms frames17:20

lardmanHmm, QML ListView, should my highlight be moving with my taps on the screen, or does that need to be implemented by me?20:35
faenilthere is some option iirc20:36
sivanganybody has an idea how to make a qml element that could be called from every item no matter how deep in a qml hirarchy and show a web page?20:39
sivangI guess I am thinking of a webkit component inside qml, which I can re-use as a singelton for different web pages per UX compoenent.20:39
sivangany idea someone?20:39
specialsivang: if you're using C++, you can add it as a context property on the root context20:39
specialqmlRegisterUncreatableType<WebkitHandler>("WebkitHandler", ...); view->rootContext()->setContextProperty("webkit", new WebkitHandler);20:40
specialsee http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7-snapshot/qtbinding.html20:41
sivangspecial: right so there is no way to do it in QML itself, perhaps there's no QML webkit component for harmattan at all? :)20:41
specialI have no idea about qml webkit components20:42
sivangspecial: I'm tomboying this dude, thanks, I got so far to understan I need to play with rootContext() but was not sure how.20:42
berndhssivang: there's WebView, you can put that anywhere you want20:42
sivangberndhs: ah okay20:42
sivangberndhs: will I need to add ti anywhere I want to use it, and also if I do, will it reuse the same webki instance?20:43
berndhsyou have to do "import QtWebKit 1.0", then you get the element defined20:44
sivangberndhs: nice and there's a way to just call it from a UX component without including it as a property?20:44
berndhsits an element like the rest of them20:45
sivangberndhs: I would guess this is the same as the c++ line special suggested?20:45
berndhslike Rectangle or ListView for one of those20:45
berndhsno it has nothing to do with the c++ stuff20:45
sivangberndhs: how would the C++ thing be different?20:45
berndhsthe properties defined from c++ allow you to interface with c++ objects20:46
berndhsListView isn't one of them20:46
berndhssorry WebView20:46
berndhsif you have multiple WebViews in the qml, they have different content of course20:48
sivangberndhs: right, so I look for a way to have one webview and be able to call it and show it from any place in the qml code20:49
sivangberndhs: as I want to allow existing code to be added support to call this webview to display as web study, for instance.20:49
sivangberndhs: perhaps as giving feedback about the specific UX component20:49
berndhsif you can find the element, you can manipulate it from other elements20:49
berndhschange the properties basically20:50
*** fiferboy has joined #harmattan20:50
berndhsQML doesn't have nesting of names, everything is global20:50
sivangberndhs: ah right, neat.20:50
* sivang recalls that from the 2010 training day in Munich20:50
berndhsso you can call up and down and sideways just with the basic id, and wreck things any way you want :)20:51
sivangperfect.20:51
sivangberndhs: now what if I want to enable this calling of the webview from code that never was written that way, if you catch my drift (20:52
berndhsI think the element has to be in teh same qml file though20:52
berndhsotherwise you can export/import it through c++20:52
berndhswhich is even more flexible and even more wrong :)20:52
sivangberndhs: perfect so the C++ way holds :)20:52
berndhswell sort of20:53
sivangberndhs: this is for this, btw - http://developer.qt.nokia.com/groups/qt_contributors_summit/wiki/CrowdQuick20:53
berndhsyou can find objects by name, or find objects that have property values20:53
sivangberndhs: because I see it now, I need to add the ability to trigger this webview opening for QML / qt code that did not have this.20:53
sivangberndhs: so I would need to add this webview and a way to open it to Item right?20:54
sivangberndhs: (which is the basis for the component hirarchy)20:54
sivangberndhs: such that some QML code, running with my qmlviewer would be able to trigger this webview as required20:54
berndhsyou can enclose the WebView in something that has functions you can call, or add properties to the WebVIew20:54
berndhsnot with qmlviewer no, it doesn't let you add c++ afaik20:55
sivangberndhs: I was thinking of making my own qmlviewer based on the one that Qt Creator boiler plates.20:55
sivangberndhs: only instead of adding debugging support and form factor detection I add this feedback UX20:56
* sivang goes to copy the channel log20:56
*** Venemo has joined #harmattan20:57
*** Venemo has joined #harmattan20:57
berndhssure you could make your own viewer with your own additions20:57
mtdanyone know where to get the beta1 flasher?20:57
sivangberndhs: that is going to be the first POC, after that I would need to see how to do it for an arbitrary qt quick app, e.g. not all of them use qmlviewer right, some just have their own custom code for showing their QML UI ?20:58
sivangberndhs: and thank you so much for all of this help.20:58
berndhsI think most applicatiosn have their own viewer, just a QDeclarativeView instead of a QMainWindow20:59
sivangberndhs: right, so to make this support for all QML, I would need to add support to QDecelarive view. That's 2nd step.21:00
sivangberndhs: this conversation with you really helped me straighten my thoughts about this.21:01

*** artemma has joined #harmattan21:18
sivangfaenil: to have specific UX elements downloadable21:18
sivangfaenil: not just whole files21:18
faeniloh okay, that's it then :)21:18
sivangfaenil: from a sort of key value store, I recall json helped me see how I can search through and pinpint specific elements21:18
faenilI see...very nice...21:19
faenilhope it goes on :)21:19
sivangfaenil: but probably there should be a distinction, e.g. if you want full files, for first UX upgrade you roll them all21:19
sivangfaenil: when you feedback, you go to REST / specific keys21:19
sivangfaenil: I like this kind of questions - makes you think21:19
faenilmaybe who knows :)21:19
faenil:)21:19
sivangfaenil: but also, someone might not just agree to a whole UX upgrade, so he wants just specific bits :)21:20
sivangfaenil: I need a forum for this, nokia deveoper seems to rpovide it but this is a Qt feature21:20
* sivang will lookk21:20
sivangfaenil: anyway, have to go for now21:20
faenilsure, the json way is more flexible...21:20
faenilsure21:20
sivangfaenil: thanks for the uestion21:20
