Qt Creator and other tools

Hi, To add to @mrjj Qt 4 provides a tool to upgrade your Qt 3 .ui files to Qt 4 .ui files that can then be also used with Qt 5.

@nick784512 Hi a ByteArray ( dynamic ) would be the best. :) void SerialPortReader::handleReadyRead() { m_readData.append(m_serialPort->readAll()); ...

Hi, As silly as it may sound: use a dynamic build for debugging your application.

I can confirm this works: as a workaround, they can put the variables into <top-level>/.qmake.conf

@hunger said in Creator: Working with long issue list: What you can do is use the TaskList plugin to work with pre-filtered lists of tasks. Those are pretty easy to create from all kinds of input (e.g. static analysis tools, etc.) with a bit of scripting. Not a perfect match, but I wrote that plugin so that I can work on specific sets of tasks from a static analysis tool and it is pretty nice for that. Can you pipe the output of an external call (from Creator) into the task list that way? Or do you have to go via a ".tasks" file that you have to open manually?

Hi, Yes there is, with Qt 4.

I doit now with install_name_tool -change. No other option will work for me. Thx

@keksi-venksi You can simply change them to references (just & in front of the parameter name). Although you should avoid non-const references as it is not possible to know whether a function/method is changing its parameters without checking the function/method signature: int a = 10; myFunction(a); // Does myFunction change a or not? If a function is changing something it should return it as its return value: int a = 10; a = myFunction(a); One general note: making 10 functions out of a 100 lines function sounds somehow wrong. You should decide which and how many functions you need based on design and not on number of lines. It can be perfectly fine to divide 100 lines function into, for example, four functions.

@probono "Does not work" isn't a problem description. You should say what exactly you did and what did not work (errors/warnings?).

@SGaist Thanks, I will have a look on Jira so ...

Thanks for sharing your solution ! Happy hacking :)

@jsulm Yep, right. It's just that normally I have separate debug and release builds with different configurations also.

Finally I found problem. [image: d534560284bc43c2b03642966ecb74bb.png] Additional generator should be specified to build project tree. I removed it before configuring project. Topic can be closed

@SGaist Got it. Thanks for explanation!

Hi, That's pretty unusual to do command line development on Windows. That note, what path are modifying in your Makefile ? That's calling for trouble. You should rather setup your command line correctly than start fiddling with paths.
