Wind River and Digia Collaborate to Extend Qt Commercial Support for VxWorks09:00 EST Thursday, February 16, 2012
ALAMEDA, Calif. (Business Wire) -- Wind
River, a world leader in embedded and mobile software, and Digia, Qt
Commercial, a pioneer in the commercial development, licensing, support
and services of Qt for desktop and embedded development, today announced
a collaboration to offer broad market availability and primary platform
support for the Qt Commercial development framework on Wind River's
VxWorks real-time operating system (RTOS).
Qt Commercial from Digia is a cross-platform user interface (UI) and
application framework with tools designed to facilitate the creation and
deployment of applications for desktop and embedded platforms.
Through this relationship, companies will have access to Qt Commercial
validated and tested with VxWorks. In addition, customer-focused
research and development, expert support, services and training, as well
as exclusive licensing rights for Qt Commercial will be available from
Digia. This will allow developers across a wide range of market segments
including industrial, medical, and aerospace and defense to design and
deploy rich UIs using the Qt development framework running seamlessly on
VxWorks.
The Qt Commercial development framework in combination with VxWorks will
enable companies to expedite graphical user interface (GUI) development
and standardization across projects, revisions and organizations within
the enterprise. In addition, it will enable the users of VxWorks to
create differentiated and user-appealing devices with advanced
interactive GUIs and added support for 3D and 2D graphics through OpenGL
ES and OpenVG. This will allow for specialized applications to include
flow and process visualization as well as medical imaging and animation
for embedded devices.
Qt Commercial support will be offered on VxWorks 6.9 and subsequent
versions, and will be available on selected Intel, Freescale and Texas
Instruments platforms. Qt Commercial support for VxWorks will be
available in a beta version based on the Qt Commercial 4.8.1 release.
Digia will be demonstrating Qt UI applications running on VxWorks
platforms at Embedded World 2012 in Hall 4, booth No. 4-405.
