Qt Creator and other tools

Hi, You have to install Microsoft's Debugging Tools. "Here":http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/ff551063(v=vs.85).aspx is the starting page

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thanks a lot andreyc, I was assuming that HEADERS and SOURCES where somehow also used by the compiler.

Thanks! Disabling the debugger options as suggested by dmarinescu fixed it for me on both Linux and Mac. I consider this a bug and I'll check if there is already a bug report. Edit: According to bug report QTCREATORBUG-11290 this should be fixed in qtcreator 3.1.0.

that is a quite impressive find, thanks for sharing!

Solved by including the right headers (there was a check against CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE) and building as STATIC instead of SHARED... Wow. Now I'm going to see execution part. @cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.8) project(applettutorial1) FIND_PACKAGE(Qt4 REQUIRED) application headers files SET(applettutorial1_HEADERS "include/applettutorial1.h" "include/applet-tutorial1_global.h" "include/applettutorial1imp.h" "include/TestInterface.h" ) application files: source and headers again so that they show up in project files tree SET(applettutorial1_SOURCES ${applettutorial1_HEADERS} src/applettutorial1.cpp src/applettutorial1imp.cpp tutorial1.xml ) MESSAGE(STATUS "Source files: " ${applettutorial1_SOURCES} ) SET (CMAKE _AUTOMOC ON) if (QT4_FOUND) INCLUDE(${QT_USE_FILE}) else() message(FATAL_ERROR "No Qt4 found") endif() MESSAGE(STATUS "QT_USE_FILE: " ${QT_USE_FILE} ) IF(CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE MATCHES Debug) SET(EXTERNALLIB_BASE "$ENV{EXTERNALLIB}/debug") MESSAGE(STATUS "Debug build") ELSE() SET(EXTERNALLIB_BASE "$ENV{EXTERNALLIB}/relWithDebInfo") MESSAGE(STATUS "Not debug build") ENDIF() MESSAGE(STATUS "Build type: " ${CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE} ) MESSAGE(STATUS "EXTERNALLIB base dir: " ${EXTERNALLIB_BASE} ) EXTERNALLIB version SET(VERSION "0.24.0") includes include_directories( "${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/include" "${EXTERNALLIB_BASE}/include" "${EXTERNALLIB_BASE}/include/foundation" ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR} ${QT_QTCORE_INCLUDE_DIR} ${QT_INCLUDE_DIR} ) link_directories("${EXTERNALLIB_BASE}/lib") name, type then list of files add_library( applettutorial1 STATIC ${applettutorial1_SOURCES} ${applettutorial1_HEADERS} ) target_link_libraries( applettutorial1 ${QT_LIBRARIES} foundation ) #install... @

I made it working by checking "run in terminal" in run settings!

Hi, The two old machines work fine for all other apps that I can test, including YouTube. I was using them because they have serial ports and I wanted to develop a serial application. I can't bear the pain of trying to get them to work, so I have purchased a cheap PCI express card for my main machine with 2 x serial and 1 x parallel ports. At £25/30€ it's worth being able to use the infinitely more powerful 64-bit machine. Also, this one is in my front room and the others are in the attic 8^) Thanks for the help anyway.

Thanks for the tip. Can someone here help me use a stylesheet this way to only change the Creator console output and application output panes, without changing anything else? I know you can use stylesheets to target a widget with a certain name. For example: QCheckBox { spacing: 4px; //affects all checkboxes } QCheckBox#checkBox_4 { spacing: 14px; //only changes one with that objectName } I've tried looking at Creator's source, but I'm not skilled enough to navigate a project of that size and complexity.

I find this really annoying as well. With older versions, circa Qt4.7+Creator 2.0, I had code set to one font, and console output used the system font, and it was much more readable. This new setting where console output and application output use the same font as code editors is really annoying in comparison. This is a basic UI principle: Different function means different typefaces. Is there any way to move the bug tracker issue up to Creator 3.x? Or is it better to create a new one?

Hi, Can't find my other post about this so here is the short version: in the "Select a qmake Executable" dialog go to your system's root and do "cmd + shit + ." to make the hidden folders appear then you can to the install folder of Qt Happy coding !

LTS is overrated :) But I digress! Perhaps you should either re-enable the bug to see if they can help you, or file a new bug and link to my old one. Good luck!

I have posted the suggestion as https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTCREATORBUG-11605

Qt uses strings (the original source text) as translation keys. But nothing prevents you from using the tr() functions like this: @tr("12345")@ where 12345 is your translation ID. But Qt seems to make it possible to attach an ID to a translation key. Perhaps "this":http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-5.0/qtdoc/i18n-source-translation.html#adding-meta-data-to-strings is what you are looking for?

hi is there any solution to this? i'm having the same issue thanks

Thank u marstay i finally fix my problem using QPrinter and QPrinterDialog :) here is the code : QPrinter *printer = new QPrinter; QPrintDialog *printDialog = new QPrintDialog(printer, this); if (printDialog->exec() == QDialog::Accepted) { QPainter p(printer); QPixmap pm = QPixmap::grabWidget(this); p.drawPixmap(0, 0, pm); }
