Qt Creator and other tools

The standard wizards are still based on qmake, as QBS remains a "smaller brother" here ;) Check out "the docs":http://qt-project.org/doc/qbs-1.2/index.html, they are generally getting better. The developers of QBS are very active and helpful on the QBS mailing list, too. Also, there is a wiki "here":http://qt-project.org/wiki/QBS.

I finally just used a std::ostringstream and put in quotes HTML syntax to handle the items to be printed.... It is working now - thanks

Thanks for your great advise mcosta. The problem was solved. The problem is completely related to my platforms (mac 64-bit and win 32-bit), I wrote a function that generate random numbers between 1 and N using qrand() like this: @ int random (int a){ double rndgen; int rand; rndgen = qrand(); rndgen/=(0x7fffffff); rndgen*=a; rndgen+=1; rand=rndgen; return rand; } @ And after that i decided how to manipulate data, in my mac it works great but in The Windows random function always return 1 because of RAND_MAX definition, RAND_MAX in 32-bit platforms is equal to 0x7fff but in 64-bit platforms is equal to 0x7fffffff. I've changed above code to this: @ int random (int a){ double rndgen; int rand; rndgen = qrand(); rndgen/=(RAND_MAX); rndgen*=a; rndgen+=1; rand=rndgen; return rand; } @ So the problem get solved :-) There isn't any problem with QImage :-)

It seems to me very strange that one can't introduce a third configuration behaviour. Also because you can write something like @CONFIG += "localRelease"@ in the .pro, so why can't you define a "localRelease" behaviour?

That can happen ;) You're welcome ! If this answers your question, please update the thread title prepending [solved] so other forum users may know a solution has been found :)

Ok, I found two distinct solutions... FIRST SOLUTION: @ mypackage.files = /path/to/my/files/on/my/pc mypackage.path = /home/root @ In this case the folder "pc" (together with its content) is copied to the target device. SECOND SOLUTION: It is also possible to exploit some undocumented QMAKE functions (as explained "here":http://www.qtcentre.org/wiki/index.php?title=Undocumented_qmake#Replace_functions): @ mypackage.files = $$files(/path/to/my/files/on/my/pc/*) mypackage.path = /home/root @ In this case only the files contained in "pc" are copied to the target device (as requested by me).

No there's not Currently most people use the shadow build option and don't play with this stuff anymore except when they have old not yet ported projects. However I would recommend using shadow builds, this way you don't have any generated files in your source tree and you can simplify your project structure

Thank you very much for pointing me there, I added a comment and a vote.

disable reverse debugging and you're gonna be ok

I got the same issue, any update about this ???

I am only aware of platform dependent method lilke @NUM = 42 NUM = $$system(expr $$NUM + 1) message($$NUM) @

It depends on debugger. In gdb you can type "backtrace" to see a call stack and "list" to print a code. I don't know about VS debugger. If you use QtCreator then you should see all info in Debug mode.

Same is true for building. Open your project, go to "Projects" pane, then open build settings, and see the last section on the bottom: "Build environment" it contains all the variables that Qt Creator uses to build your project.

Hi and welcome to devnet, For that question, you should contact froglogic directly since they are the authors of this software.

on embedded systems it's usually disabled for size reasons. any actual answer to this?

Yes, this is what I want. Thanks for clarifying.

Thanks for the tip - I'll try that.
