vehicle-commander-qt

The Vehicle Commander Qt demonstrates developer samples for building and testing in-vehicle military applications with the ArcGIS Runtime Qt SDK. The Vehicle Commander Qt projects contains source code for creating sample in-vehicle, touchscreen, and support applications.

Features

• Displays high-performance touchscreen maps, including provisioned basemaps and operational data
• Displays a GPS location (simulated)
• Displays military symbology and grids

Getting Started with the Vehicle Commander (Qt)

• Check your development environment is properly configured for the ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Qt; some items of note:
  • Ensure the configuration file, ex. esri_runtime_qt_10_2.prf has been installed
    • Copied from {ARCGISRUNTIMESDKQT}\sdk\ideintegration\esri_runtime_qt_10_2.prf to {QTDIR}\mkspecs\features\esri_runtime_qt_10_2.prf
  • (Linux only) Initialize runtime. From a Command Prompt> > . {RuntimeSDKHome}/init_sdk_qt64.sh
• Open, build, and run one of the sample projects in Qt Creator
  • Note: if you are not using the latest version of the Runtime SDK, you may need to edit the .pro file for each project
  • Change the line CONFIG += esri_runtime_qt_10_2_2 to match the version of your Runtime SDK.
• These projects include:
  • ArcGISQtMessageSimulator - sends simulated network update messages
  • ArcGISQtSearchAPIApp - a stand-alone symbol search sample
  • MapTestApp - a simple map demonstration application
  • VehicleCommander - a more advanced in-vehicle, touchscreen application
    • To automate the copy of the deployment files, a manual step is required to the Qt Creator Project. To do this in Qt Creator: Projects | VehicleCommander - Build Settings tab | Build Steps click on Add Build Step | Choose Make from the Add menu | Add "install" as Make argument. See the VehicleCommander.pro for details on the install step. Note: this must been done for both the Debug and Release Builds.
    • IMPORTANT/WORKAROUND: in order to debug the VehicleCommander project you will need to disable QML debugging (in Projects | Run | Debugger Settings). For more information see Issue #5

Services

• The default application uses ArcGIS Online services to display basemaps. See the source code for more details.

Resources

• Learn more about Esri's ArcGIS for Defense maps and apps.
• This application uses Esri's ArcGIS Runtime SDK for Qt; see the site for concepts, samples, and references for using the API to create mapping applications.
