Qt OPC UA news catch up
  • OPC UA, open62541, Qt, Qt 6, Qt OPC UA
Essential Summary
It has been a while since the last blog post covering Qt OPC UA news. This short update will outline what we have primarily worked on in 2022.

It has been a while since the last blog post covering Qt OPC UA news. This short update will outline what we have primarily worked on in 2022.

Basic Historical Data Access support

Historical Data Access is defined in OPC UA part 11. It specifies how a client can access historical process values as well as events. With Qt 6.3 we added basic HDA support to the QOpcUaClient class (see here for a usage example). The support is currently limited to so called raw values.

Qt 6.5

The upcoming Qt 6.5 release (scheduled for end of march) will bring an update to the open62541 version we are using internally. We updated from a 1.1 release to 1.3.4. This primarily pulls in upstream bugfixes but as a side effect we now also support a new security policy (Aes128_Sha256_RsaOaep).

 With Qt 6.5 we will now also support using OpenSSL3 as a crypto library. We have previously supported OpenSSL1.1.x.

The full list of changes can be found here.

basysKom is offering consulting, training and development services around Qt, Qt OPC UA and open62541.

Come talk to us for feature development, bugfixing or the application of Qt OPC UA in your next project.

About QML Efficiency: Compilers, Language Server, and Type Annotations
In our last post we had a look at how to set up QML Modules and how we can benefit from the QML Linter. Today we’re going to set up the QML Language Server to get an IDE-like experience in an editor of our choice. We’ll also help the the QML Compiler generate more efficient code.

How To Use Modern QML Tooling in Practice
Qt 5.15 introduced “Automatic Type Registration”. With it, a C++ class can be marked as “QML_ELEMENT” to be automatically registered to the QML engine. Qt 6 takes this to the next level and builds all of its tooling around the so-called QML Modules. Let’s talk about what this new infrastructure means to your application in practice and how to benefit from it in an existing project.

Use Compute Shader in Qt Quick
With this blog post, we introduce the QtQuickComputeItem – a Qt Quick item that allows you to easily integrate compute shader into your Qt Quick Code. Compute Shader are used to perform arbitrary computations on the GPU. For example, the screenshot below shows a Qt Quick application that generates Gray Scott Reaction Diffusion patterns.  The simulation is executed by a compute shader that is configured directly in QML.
