Qt Creator and other tools

Qt 5.3.2 on OS 10.9.5, Xcode Version 6.0.1 Bacon2D was install in $HOME/Qt/5.3/clang_64/imports

My bad, I misunderstood your use case. On OS X, what you generally do when providing libraries is to provide frameworks which are also bundles like applications. Qt by default installs bundles. If you take the example of Qt's installation one step is to correct the paths from the library in each bundle to make it match where it's installed so you don't need too much fiddling with e.g. DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH

In the FakeVim settings, switch off "Expand Tabulator", or type :set noet. Same as in real vim.

You're very welcome, Since you have it working correctly now, please update the thread title prepending [solved].

Hi and welcome to devnet, Qt Creator is not part of Qt's sources. Note that you don't need to build it in order to use Qt 5.4, just ensure that you use a recent enough version. Qt Creator can handle several versions of Qt.

If the root item is a Window or ApplicationWindow then states are disabled, because those elements do not have any states.

As SGaist already mentioned, that configure command is part of the Qt sources and accordingly the command line you quoted is for building Qt before building the Qt Installer Framework. That being said, Version 1.3 of the Qt Installer framework is not exactly the newest and you might find that newer versions require newer Qt versions built with different configure parameters. For example, the latest git clone i tried needed a Qt >= 5.3.0 AND that Qt had to be explicitely configured with -developer-build so as to export a couple classes (e.g. QFSFileEngine) that are private since Qt5

I erased the .pro.user, cleaned the project, and then started compiling. Thanks for your help! Switching it to Solved

Hi and welcome to devnet, MinGW 32bit only build 32bit applications. But you also have 64 bit versions if you need. 64-32 bit differences is mainly the type of OS you'll be able to run on. 32bit applications runs on both 32 and 64 bit windows versions. You can't freely mix libraries built with MSVC and MinGW. Nothing wrong with using MSVC2013, the only hassle is that you have to install it separately. Hope it helps

I had this issue, and for me the problem was my new keyboard with the F-lock feature. http://compusavvy.wordpress.com/2010/01/16/function-keys-acting-funky-suspect-an-f-lock-keyboard/

Thank you JKSH. I recently moved to Git from an old CVS system. We will do as you suggest and keep a local copy on each VM. I will also get onto the interest mailing list. Thanks again, Dan

Hi, when you want to compile your plugin, you need (in you .pro file) to point out where the sources and binaries for the target QtCreator are. This is needed for a successful compilation of your plugin. (And that's why you need first to compile QtCreator itself. I.e. you don't really need the app, just some other files). Also building in debug mode is not recommended, both QtCreator and your plugin should be compiled in Release mode. Once you have the .dll for you plugin, you can copy it to any Qt installation (along with the .pluginspec file). When QtCreator starts and loads the plugins, it checks that the plugins are built against the same version, right now it's 3.2.1. This is to make sure the shared data structures are intact across DLL boundaries etc. Last year I built a plugin for "Wordstar emulation":https://github.com/tungware/GeezerEditQt it works fine on Windows, Mac and Linux, but I have to recompile it (and QtCreator) when there's a new Qt release :-(

This is a problem with ibus on Ubuntu 14.04, see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ibus/+bug/1278569 Disabling ibus cures the problem.

Are you aware that the "snap" that you meant to "attach" is a URL pointing to some place on your local filesystem?
