Qt Creator and other tools

what about poppler? the qt5 backend is pretty good.

I've found the response. There is a positionIndependentCode property in the cpp module. So on can remove -fPIC by adding cpp.positionIndependentCode: false. This property is supposed to be undefined by default, but it seems to resolve to true for my toolchain.

@kshegunov Many thanks, i had the eariler version of qtCreator.

I found a solution. In case anyone has the same problem just add the following to you CMakeLists.txt: if(WIN32) set(GUI_TYPE WIN32) elseif(APPLE) set(GUI_TYPE MACOSX_BUNDLE) endif() then add ${GUI_TYPE} to your target. My CMakeLists.txt is now project(Win32App) cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 3.0.2 FATAL_ERROR) if(WIN32) set(GUI_TYPE WIN32) elseif(APPLE) set(GUI_TYPE MACOSX_BUNDLE) endif() set(SRC main.cpp ) set(HDR) set(RES) add_definitions(-DWIN32 -D_WINDOWS -D_UNICODE -DUNICODE) set(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS "${CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS} /SUBSYSTEM:WINDOWS,5.01") add_custom_target(${PROJECT_NAME}_HEADERS SOURCES ${HDR}) add_executable(${CMAKE_PROJECT_NAME} ${GUI_TYPE} ${SRC} ${RES})

Thanks for the hint

@SGaist Thanks. That mailing list will be helpful for future reference. Pursuing my understanding of Examples and Tutorials I followed the recent thread by @clayton https://forum.qt.io/topic/64216/how-to-configure-qt-creator-to-find-the-examples-on-the-welcome-panel/2 From link2 posted by @Ratzz I found this ... https://wiki.qt.io/Qt_Examples_in_Qt_Creator This helps to understand the Examples and Tutorials folder. I opened in text editor .. images_areaofinterest.xml ($QTCREATORDIR/share/qtcreator/welcomescreen/images_areaofinterest.xml) qtcreator_tutorials.xml ($QTCREATORDIR/share/qtcreator/welcomescreen/qtcreator_tutorials.xml) to get some idea of layout. Note that in an XML editor (XMLCopyEditor) element errors showed up in both xml files. e.g. Error at line 2, column 29: no declaration found for element 'instructionals'. However my opening question is answered so I will mark this thread as "solved".

I found avaliable variables at special dialog from Qt Creator (projects->build&run->run->"Arguments" field->press right button "Insert Variable". Now the snippet for gtest looks like: TEST_F(%{CurrentDocument:FileBaseName}, $test_name$) { $test_body$ }

@SGaist generation of qm files works if at first lupdate was run manually. so the part of creation of ts files from https://wiki.qt.io/Automating_generation_of_qm_files doesn't work as expected

thanks, will try to see if I can get something out of that plugin. :)

Like I already wrote, the interest mailing list is a better place to ask this. This forum is mainly user oriented and that's the kind of question that the developers/maintainers can answer.

@SGaist thx - have to "learn" how all this is working at Qt ;-) my first steps here after 4 years daily developing Cascades/Qt/4.8 apps with Eclipse Momentics

Thanks you put me onto the right path, I did a full rebuild and the case 2 reappeared. I then remembered I'd set a slot in designer for the context menu. This had put a slot function in my header. Deleting this sorted everything.

Hi @jdent Be sure that you have your image and qml file are in resource (*** .qrc). And code : Image { source: "images/imageName.png"

Hi, That's a question better asked on the Qt Android development You'll find there Qt's Android port developers/maintainers. There's this chapter in the Android documentation that might hint that it's possible however I don't the how much work it would mean on the Qt side.

Hi and welcome to devnet, What version of Qt and Qt Creator are you using ?

Using the macx-xcode mkspec ?

Thanks !

@SGaist ok. thanks
