Qt Creator and other tools

Pressing R in the form editor does trigger a reload. But this seems to be a bug. Can you "file a detailed bug report":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/? [Mark up link, Tobias]

Thanks! Is it documented anywhere?

Mhm...I think I will have to write my own "make" command utility because it's quite miserable when it's allows me to set up my own extensions of any file but not output directories of important parts...

Updating to the new version also did not help. But it was it worth!! What helped was to completely reinstall the OS and developer tools on the N900. Thanks for your help!

Have a look at style sheets. You can experiment with it in Qt Designer. For instance have a QLabel in a form. Right mouse button click. Change style sheet ... Color ... foreground color. Using style sheets you can even control the colors and looks of you entire application instead of doing this one widget at a time.

After you edit something in the Qt Designer, you have to run your project 1 time before you can see the changes in Qt Creator.

The example Microsoft provided was wrong -> http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa381058(VS.85).aspx I had to include <windows.h> In order to add the file-version It works now.

Hi Tobias, my current project folder looks something like that. src/ src/view src/config the source directory is the one where I expected the executable to lie in. the view and config are the directories I want to access. This worked well until now. On my Linux system this works still perfect. But my windows environment build the exe to the debug or release subdirectories. Which looks something like this. src/ src/view src/config src/debug - here src/release - or here lies the executable and in this case I can't get access to view/ or config/ because I expected these directories as a subdir of the directory the executable lies in. I tried it with shadow building and and without. bq. Did you go through the Qt version selection dialog when you opened your project? Sorry but I didn't really understand this question. I already tried different Qt versions, but every time I get the same result.

Thanks sigrid that did the trick, but I'm using creator to build the dialog so I lose the changes everytime the .ui gets compiled. I did figure out a way to get it to work by modifing the creator .ui file directly. was: @ <addaction name="menuFile"/> <addaction name="menu_Config"/> <addaction name="menu_Status"/> <addaction name="menu_Protocols"/> <addaction name="menu_Help"/>@ is: @ <addaction name="menuFile"/> <addaction name="menu_Config"/> <addaction name="menu_Status"/> <addaction name="menu_Protocols"/> <addaction name="separator"/> <addaction name="menu_Help"/>@ Just add the seperator in the xml right before the "Help" menu is added to the menu bar. Thanks everyone!

Hi, to be clear, I can make multiple constructors. i can not make use of the feature "add definition" with constructors.

Does @qmake -tp vc -r@ help? See the following FAQ: "recursive ":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/faq/answer/how_can_i_generate_.vcproj_files_recursively_for_a_.pro_file_with_the_subdi

There are still uses for the stand alone tools, IMHO. One is that not everyone wants to use Qt Creator (even though it rocks!), and another is that not everyone likes the multiple-page implementation Qt Creator uses vs the way how Assistant does it (list vs. tabs).

Ludde Would you suggest I build / reinstall ?

Yes, it builds/runs no problem. Is there potentially a different component for the "object search path" than there is for header location?

You can create a dummy .pro file using "qmake -project" and run lupdate on that. That would also let you specify your target languages.

Nice. So my description here is clear enough, right? [quote author="Tobias Hunger" date="1305189560"]I think your suggestion makes sense. Please "file a feature request":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/ in our bugtracker and we'll see whether we get round to implement it.[/quote]

I reported this bug here http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTCREATORBUG-4812 but it seems it has already been fixed in 2.2. I hope Ubuntu will release it soon then. Thanks!

Okay, done here: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTCREATORBUG-4846 But I suspect this is because of the cross-compiling environment and me not using QtCreator's building tools.

Is there anything what I can do to solve this issue or to investigate it?

[quote author="Denis Kormalev" date="1304979454"]leon.anavi, there are some features that you miss in Vass' plugin? If yes you can contact him, he is here on DevNet.[/quote] Honestly I have not tried it yet :( Regarding the comments that the installation is time consuming I will add it to my to-do list for some of the coming weekends. Vass, thanks for providing the plugin! I will write back when I install it to share user comments :)
