Qt Creator and other tools

The thing is how to translate into a ui_*.h file. I mean it isn't really a big deal at all but it isn't direct. I personaly love it but I am just trying to be critical so that we get the best answer for the devs (and one that they hopefully won't shoot down). I think that this should be attached as to a bug report as a proposed fix.

Thank you, Tobias Hunger, You are right about including files in the installation file, but sometimes, as a part of debugging, I want to copy some (latest) parameter files to the same directory as the executable. Dependency between projects is another issue, which must be re-entered for each computer. Maybe, it is worthy of consideration as a new feature of Qt creator to store the contents of sessions in some file so that users can transfer them just like solution file of Visual Studio.

The following "FAQ":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/faq/answer/how_can_i_set_up_my_environment_for_building_qt_qt_applications_with_mingw describes where you can get MinGW and how to build Qt with it.

Satmosc: Please just "file bug reports":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/ for your issues. If you find out that you did something wrong, then just close them again (or we will close it;-).

I have the exact same problem. Running a static linked QML application and getting a white window. What am I doing wrong ? [quote author="Onddo" date="1294847742"]Hi, Is the Static linking supposed to work with QML applications as well? I went through the steps mentioned on the link above, the executable builds, but when I run it independently it just shows a white window. Thanks![/quote]

Just wanted to update that I installed Qt Creator 2.1.0. by building it from source according to: http://slackbuilds.org/repository/13.37/development/qt-creator/ I had to rebuild debugging helpers in project settings. Now gdb is working fine and I can see Qobjects such as Qstring values in Debug mode. I hope it helps someone in similar situation.

The original problem is solved through the subdirs template of qmake. Here is the example of my case @ TEMPLATE = subdirs CONFIG += ordered SUBDIRS = ALib BLib CLib DLib Applications/Appl1 @ Each directory needs a .pro-file with the same name as the directory name is.

I couldn't solve it with qt creator 2.1. I'm using now visual studio, which works pretty well with the add-in. Thanks for the answers!

Sorry for bad edition I was meaning: @ myNewVariable = bla bla myNewVariable = $$replace(myNewVariable,' ','') @ And indeed this is working but it was a bit more complicated for me as I was using "system" function like this: @ myOldVariable = "Foo Bar Baz" myNewVariable = $$system(echo $${myOldVariable} | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z') myNewVariable = $$replace(myNewVariable,' ','') @ which prints @ Project MESSAGE: foo bar baz @ but this: @ myOldVariable = "Foo Bar Baz" myNewVariable = "$$system(echo $${myOldVariable} | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z')" myNewVariable = $$replace(myNewVariable,' ','') @ correctly prints: @ Project MESSAGE: foobarbaz @ But the best way to do the trick for me is like that: @ myOldVariable = "Foo Bar Baz" myNewVariable = $$lower($$myOldVariable) myNewVariable = $$replace(myNewVariable,' ','') @ It's such a shame that functions like "lower" or "upper" are not documented in the official documentation at http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qmake-function-reference.html. Is there good reasons for that? For those looking for more documentation about qmake you can have a look at http://www.qtcentre.org/wiki/index.php?title=Undocumented_qmake.

For our plugins we have this in the .pro. It installs the plugin into the right path, depending on the version it was built with: @ INSTALLS += target target.path = $$[QT_INSTALL_PLUGINS]/designer TEMPLATE = lib CONFIG += debug warn_on qt thread exceptions rtti designer plugin @

[quote author="u2bpavankumar" date="1303383293"]Please let me know whether Qt SDK RC 1.1 [labs.qt.nokia.com] works fine on Vista (32 bit system) or not. I could n't run the example programs provided as well. When I try to run, simulator crashes with following message on application output for animatedtiles example Starting C:\QtSDK\Examples\4.7\animation\animatedtiles-build-simulator\debug\animatedtiles.exe... Waiting for reply from simulator timed out Invalid parameter passed to C runtime function. Invalid parameter passed to C runtime function. C:\QtSDK\Examples\4.7\animation\animatedtiles-build-simulator\debug\animatedtiles.exe exited with code 3 The same sdk works fine on my colleagues Windows Xp SP3 and he can run all the examples well. Has anyone faced such problems in vista?? Please let me know[/quote] I have this problem, did you figured out how to solve? thanks in advance

I have checked in the Event Viewer: When it tries to starts, it shows an information event: The process (simulator.exe) requested the disabling of the desktop window manager. I guess this is when my screen blinks.... Another information event: Could not start the desktop window manager an running application disabled the composition. Error message: Name of the application with errors: simulator.exe........ I hope this could help to find a solution..... Thanks!

Hmm sorry, don't think I can help further here :(

Andre & Volker thank you - did it in Designer just how I needed it!

For the record, there are pre-built gdb binaries for MinGW at ftp://ftp.qt.nokia.com/misc/gdb/7.2/ Also, Qt Creator can debug MSVC compiled binaries, but you need to have Microsoft's "Debugging Tools for Windows" installer.

Thanks Tobias: Yes, I do understand that the nonexistent / missing files / paths etc. need to be fixed. Perhaps you, or anyone could take a look at a issue I'm having in trying to solve that at http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/6155/ Also, guess I don't understand what is needed for qmake to work? I did not mention previously, but, I can build / compile / on the host environment, and run on the OMAP-L138 target some of the qt examples with the current installed environment using the command line i.e. cd <directory where the application source is> qmake -project qmake make Not sure how that works (me qt nubee) when paths to qmake are incorrect and or non existent as shown above in the ./qmake -query above ? Maybe you or ? could enlighten me on how that is working? Thanks again!

By default, ther are no plug-ins for browsers. There was a "QtSolution":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/solutions/4/qtbrowserplugin/ some tiume ago. You can look at that topic. Perhaps it helps. But Qt itself has not Browser plugins available. Edit: some seconds too slow.... :-)

thanks a lot. Yes it is working... all are fixed :)

qt Creator Reference documentation says you have to use TAB to go to the parameter you want, then change it and all occurences will change also. Nice!

Hi , I found the issue... for all who are interested. Jom makes a binary in the temp files that most of antivirus programs delete them as they detect them as a virus or .... so , by disabling them , it fixes the issue during compile time.
