Single-chip microcomputer released with Qt for MCUs 2.6: reduce ROM and other performance requirements, introduce Quick Ultralite new API
CTOnews.com November 13 news, Qt for MCUs has now launched an official version 2.6.This version is based on "performance improvement" and claims to improve the performance of related microcontrollers.
CTOnews.com Note: the MCU chip is the single-chip microcomputer, and Qt for MCUs is the embedded framework designed for these single-chip computers, which can perform a series of functions with low performance.
According to officials, Qt for MCUs 2.6 introduces a series of code generation optimizations to reduce redundancy in C++ code, which in turn reduces overall ROM requirements. Specifically, Qt for MCUs 2.6 mainly updates the following:
Qt Quick Ultralite's new QML API developers extend the core functions of Qt Quick Ultralite by adding new QML API adapted directly from Qt to simplify the implementation of application functionality and improve the reusability of existing code written for non-MCU platforms.
The new performance-centric benchmark function, the QulPerf QML type, extends a new set of metrics to easily display and access the frame rate, CPU usage, and memory usage of running applications.
File system support (Technical Preview phase) the new file system interface API can be used to register and integrate user-selected file systems in applications, and to enable the Qt Quick Ultralite engine to find and display images in them. Provides a reference implementation for FatFS.
GHS MULTI IDE integrated automotive tools developers implement a series of seamless workflows between Qt and Green Hills tools, and qmlprojectexporter tools now support the creation of MULTI projects that pre-integrate all MCU elements Qt.
AUTOSAR Classic support Qt has been working with customers and AUTOSAR vendors to understand the requirements of GUI applications running in a secure AUTOSAR Classic architecture and to provide strong and validated Qt integration for MCU.
With the release of Qt for MCU 2.6, officials have also launched the first Qt platform port for MCU for the RenesasRH850 / D1M1A automotive platform.
