Any other client than is not the client shell (homecreen or WAM). A client shell is the client that implements a private extension to specify how we place and order "windows". > > > > > Choose one of them at a time (notice that AppFW would attempt to startthem > > by default -- you could tweak config.xml to avoid that) and you should be > > fine, though I'm that sure you have a way to switch between apps,when > > combing platforms (you'll be missing buttons/launcher that performs the > > switch). > > So for my understanding this means that i'm need to install both Qt > Homescreen and WAM, then just one of them must be activated at runtime > based on the application type that needs to be executed. Is this > correct? I mean, you don't need to, you seem to be wanting to have both HTML5 and Qt, which is fine. I think you might need to read [1], to understand the role of the client shell and the private extension we have in AGL. You can have both of the installed, but not running at the time. > In this case do i need to have two homescreens, one in html > and one in qt in order to perform the switch using the launcher or > some other buttons on screen?

No, what I meant is that probably you'll need to amend either homescreen or WAM such that you have a way to switch between different applications (and most likely to start them). For instance, you can have homescreen and start a browser instance (by this I mean chromium but maybe any other html5 app). If the browser is installed like a widget it will automatically show up in the launcher application, and with it you can start it, and, at some later point in time, to switch to it. On the HTML5 side of things, you can have WAM as the client shell, and still use Qt applcations. Where and how you start the Qt applications, interactively using WAM is at this point an unknown to me, as I don't believe we have something similar to what the launcher application does now on the Qt platform. > > Thank you very much > > Fabrizio [1] https://docs.automotivelinux.org/en/master/#5_Component_Documentation/1_agl-compositor/#private-extensions > > > > > -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
