I see that currently QtLocation and QtPositioning are still not
allowed in Harbour. This seems to me that I cannot use a Map object
in QML.
QtPositioning is allowed, but QtLocation not. You conclusion is correct
though -- you cannot use Map. Jolla seems to want to wait for QtLocation
to be released as a stable part of Qt. It is a "technology preview" in
Qt 5.5.
What is approved the method to present a map interface (openmaps for
example) in an application and still have it possible to submit the
application to the store?
You need to bundle something in and ship it with your application.
Effectively, Jolla is currently telling application authors to either
(1) not write applications with maps, (2) not ship via the official
store or (3) to bundle their own map component.
If option (3) is least bad for you, you can take a look at the several
map applications already at the Jolla store, some of which are open
source. Each of them bundle a different legacy map component that is
clearly less native, less smooth and less performant than QtLocation.
The QML PinchMap [1] is probably the easiest solution. If you don't need
something quite ready yet, but want a modern solution, take a look at
Mapbox GL [2].
Best would be if you could convince Jolla to allow QtLocation. I suspect
their stability worries are exaggerated, especially compared to the lack
of stability worries of those legacy components.
