Here are the key steps for building RingQt applications for mobile: 1. Download the Android SDK Tools and Android NDK from the official Android developer website. The SDK provides tools for app development and the NDK allows you to build portions of apps using C/C++. 2. Configure your development environment by setting the ANDROID_HOME environment variable and adding SDK/NDK paths to your system PATH. 3. Create an Android project in Qt Creator. Choose "Qt Android Application" as the template. 4. Add RingQt source files to your project and import necessary RingQt modules in your code. 5. Configure the project to use the NDK for building RingQt C/C++

65.59 Methods to use Events with Events Filter
RingQt define a new class called QAllEvents that help you in using Events Filter
The next table presents the methods that we have
Methods to get parameters Class Name
getKeyCode() –> Number QAllEvents
getx() –> Number
gety() –> Number
getglobalx() –> Number
getglobaly() –> Number
getbutton() –> Number
getbuttons() –> Number

65.60 The Difference between Qt and RingQt
1. RingQt use simple methods to set the code that will be executed for events.
Syntax:
Set<Event_Name>Event(cEventCode)
2. RingQt change the name of some methods to avoid conflict with Ring Keywords.
The next table present these little changes

65.61 RingQt Classes and their Qt Documentation
Qt Documentation : http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/classes.html
See the “RingQt Classes and Methods Reference” chapter for supported classes and methods.
65.62 New Classes names - Index Start from 1
We added new classes to RingQt - another version of classes where the class names doesn’t start with the “q” letter
Also updated methods so the index start from 1 when we deal with the GUI controls like
• ComboBox
• ListWidget
• TableWidget
• TreeWidget
These classes are inside guilib.ring under the package name : System.GUI
To use it
load "guilib.ring"
import System.GUI
This doesn’t have any effect on our previous code, It’s just another choice for better code that is consistent with Ring
rules.
Also the form designer is updated to provide us the choice between using classes where (index start from 0) or (index
start from 1)
Example (Uses the Form Designer)
1. https://github.com/ring-lang/ring/blob/master/applications/formdesigner/tests/indexstart/indexstartView.ring
2. https://github.com/ring-lang/ring/blob/master/applications/formdesigner/tests/indexstart/indexstartController.ring

65.63 Creating Reports using the WebLib and the GUILib
The WebLib comes with a class called HtmlPage
Using this class we can create reports quickly using WebLib & GUILib together
Example:
load "stdlib.ring"
load "weblib.ring"
load "guilib.ring"
import System.Web
import System.GUI
new qApp {
open_window(:CustomersReportController)
exec()
}
class CustomersReportController
oView = new CustomersReportView
func Start
CreateReport()
func CreateReport
mypage = new HtmlPage {
h1 { text("Customers Report") }
Table
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(4)
TR
{
TD { WIDTH="10%"
text("Customers Count : " ) }
TD { text (100) }
}
}
Table
{
style = stylewidth("100%") + stylegradient(26)
TR
{
style = stylewidth("100%") +
stylegradient(24)
TD { text("Name " ) }
TD { text("Age" ) }
TD { text("Country" ) }
TD { text("Job" ) }
TD { text("Company" ) }
}
for x = 1 to 100
TR
{
TD { text("Test" ) }
TD { text("30" ) }
TD { text("Egypt" ) }

8. Ring Documentation, Release 1.10
TD { text("Sales" ) }
TD { text("Future" ) }
}
next
}
}
write("report.html",mypage.output())
func PrintEvent
printer1 = new qPrinter(0) {
setoutputformat(1)
setoutputfilename("report.pdf")
}
oView {
web.print(printer1)
web.show()
}
system ("report.pdf")
class CustomersReportView
win = new window() {
setwindowtitle("Report Window")
setgeometry(100,100,500,500)
web = new webview(win) {
setgeometry(100,100,1000,500)
loadpage(new qurl("file:///"+
currentdir()+"/report.html"))
}
new pushbutton(win) {
setGeometry(100,20,100,30)
settext("Print")
setclickevent(Method(:PrintEvent))
}
showMaximized()
}
