[Qt-interest] QT-OpenVG how to

Hi,

I want to write a Hello World application using Qt OpenVG backend. I'm
using PowerVR provided OpenGLES/OpenVG libraries.

I want to run that application on my ARM(BeagleBoard) board.
Since it is using QWS so "-graphicssystem openvg" will not work as it
is mentioned in the code.

My concern is that I dont know from where should i start. I know its
too much to ask for (since OpenVG backend is still in development
phase) and there are no OpenVG examples available to help.

Do I have to subclass a normal Qt Widget and override its paint engine
and other relevant classes (like a Qt OpenGL module) or do i have to
subclass a QGLwidget(just an illiterate guess) and start from there?
Or do i have to look into a Screen driver implementation to use
OpenVG?

At the end, a brief introduction on how to get started with it will be
greatly appreciated. I'm not a OpenVG or OpenGL or even QT  expert but
I can pick up things :) so if you have anything to share it will help
a lot.

Thanks for your concern.

Regards,
Amit Pundir
