Qt Creator and other tools

Its always pain to add/remove/manage libs on windows. Did you think about managing dependencies to external third party libraries? What I'm thinking about is a central lib repository like maven and an equivalent dependency management. That is easy!

ok, outside of my experience. But thanks for sharing, I have learnt a bit more :-)

Yes, sure. I agree. Nevertheless, it is not mandatory to change (or, even worse, destroy) the existing project. A single class (or a file containing more than one class) could be easily copied into a new project (containing all of the required support code) and compiled as a library. I can easily do that by hand so I cannot see any reason why it cannot be done by (a reasonable complex piece of) software. After all, when you "export" something from a project or a document, usually the original project/document remains untouched. I could also imagine a GIT-based approach, based on branching. In this second case, the developer would get the added benefit of maintaining a explicit parent/child relationship between the original project and the exported component (and being able to merge back if required).

Posted a bug report. https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTCREATORBUG-7011

-Thanks for filing the bug report. When you post the link to the bug report here, others are able to vote and monitor the progress as well.- [Edit] Did not read careful enough and overlooked the link, which is already there :-(

[quote author="miroslav" date="1330425416"]I was referring to the fact that the wiki page did not mention that Valgrind can be used directly from within Qt Creator on the platforms that support it. [/quote] Ah, right, good point, and thanks for the addition.

Well I use Qwt with Eclipse in Linux so that's not the problem. This is how the qwt part of my .pro file look like: @ QWT INCLUDEPATH += /usr/include/qwt-qt4 LIBS += -lqwt-qt4 DEFINES += QWT_DLL @ I just setup a Qt GUI project, build the qwt libs, add the above code to my .pro file and add the include paths in eclipse under project settings. It doesn't make sense that a 3rd-party tool would cause a Qt error like the one you got, maybe you accidentally replaced a Qt Lib path with a qwt one instead of adding it.

Ah, I see. Gotcha.

qmake.exe [PROJECT PATH] -r -spec win32-g++ "CONFIG+=release" // Windows Compile Which IDE is using your co-worker? It's so much easier to press 3 buttons to change a target, than typing in a command line ;)

For anyone using Eclipse, "Subclipse":http://subclipse.tigris.org/ is a great plugin.

Please be sure and edit your first post to add [Solved] to the title.

Indeed. Just don't put them in version control (just like you don't put any other generated files in version control), and you're good. You are using version control, arn't you?

[quote author="Tobias Hunger" date="1329897317"]How about "filing a bug report":http://bugreports.qt-project.org/ ? That way the responsible developer gets to see the issue. [/quote] Done. I was wondering if the fact that I use qt 4.7.4 could be the cause of the problem.

Thanks for the hints. I eventually determined that the fault lay with the Cinnamon desktop that is part of Linux Mint; it has questionable code to bring windows to the front when they "demand attention". https://github.com/linuxmint/Cinnamon/issues/233 There was a workaround on that bug report which fixed up QtCreator for me, namely disabling the _onWindowDemandsAttention() function in /usr/share/cinnamon/js/ui/windowAttentionHandler.js .

@broadpeak: thanx for sharing this..

Moving the libphononwidgets.dylib plugin out of the '/Developer/Applications/Qt/plugins/designer' folder allows Designer to launch. Reported as bug QTBUG-24432. [EDIT: fixed jira link, Volker]

Bugs are best reported at bugreports.qt-project.org.

You don't. A list view has a single column. If you need multiple columns, you will want to use QTableView or perhaps QTreeView.

Great that I could help. :) If you want to use custom types without patching qmlpuppet you have to create a qml plugin and install in it <qtbuild_dir>/imports.
