Qt Creator and other tools

this should work I think
@
QT -= core gui
CONFIG += console
TARGET = helloworld
TEMPLATE= app
SOURCES = main.cpp
@

About @ tag. When you post code here use @ character before and after your code to highlight it

I think a lot of developers use qss (among developers usnig qt of course). Maybe not a lot of apps use huge amount of qss, but small qss stylings are needed in big part of apps.
About second question. Widgets are marked as done moudle and so no huge new features will be avail there. But if you miss something in qss you can develop it by yourself and request merge into qt5 (and you even can break binary compatibility in this case if you need some really huge feature that does not fit current interfaces).

The thing is how to translate into a ui_*.h file. I mean it isn't really a big deal at all but it isn't direct. I personaly love it but I am just trying to be critical so that we get the best answer for the devs (and one that they hopefully won't shoot down).

I think that this should be attached as to a bug report as a proposed fix.

Thank you, Tobias Hunger,

You are right about including files in the installation file, but sometimes, as a part of debugging, I want to copy some (latest) parameter files to the same directory as the executable.

Dependency between projects is another issue, which must be re-entered for each computer.

Maybe, it is worthy of consideration as a new feature of Qt creator to store the contents of sessions in some file so that users can transfer them just like solution file of Visual Studio.

The following "FAQ":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/faq/answer/how_can_i_set_up_my_environment_for_building_qt_qt_applications_with_mingw describes where you can get MinGW and how to build Qt with it.

Satmosc: Please just "file bug reports":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/ for your issues. If you find out that you did something wrong, then just close them again (or we will close it;-).

I have the exact same problem.
Running a static linked QML application and getting a white window.
What am I doing wrong ?

[quote author="Onddo" date="1294847742"]Hi,
Is the Static linking supposed to work with QML applications as well? I went through the steps mentioned on the link above, the executable builds, but when I run it independently it just shows a white window.

Thanks![/quote]

Just wanted to update that I installed Qt Creator 2.1.0. by building it from source according to: http://slackbuilds.org/repository/13.37/development/qt-creator/

I had to rebuild debugging helpers in project settings. Now gdb is working fine and I can see Qobjects such as Qstring values in Debug mode. I hope it helps someone in similar situation.

The original problem is solved through the subdirs template of qmake.

Here is the example of my case
@
TEMPLATE = subdirs
CONFIG += ordered
SUBDIRS =
ALib
BLib
CLib
DLib
Applications/Appl1
@

Each directory needs a .pro-file with the same name as the directory name is.

I couldn't solve it with qt creator 2.1. I'm using now visual studio, which works pretty well with the add-in. Thanks for the answers!

Sorry for bad edition I was meaning:

@
myNewVariable = bla bla
myNewVariable = $$replace(myNewVariable,' ','')
@
And indeed this is working but it was a bit more complicated for me as I was using "system" function like this:
@
myOldVariable = "Foo Bar Baz"
myNewVariable = $$system(echo $${myOldVariable} | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z')
myNewVariable = $$replace(myNewVariable,' ','')
@
which prints
@
Project MESSAGE: foo bar baz
@
but this:
@
myOldVariable = "Foo Bar Baz"
myNewVariable = "$$system(echo $${myOldVariable} | tr 'A-Z' 'a-z')"
myNewVariable = $$replace(myNewVariable,' ','')
@
correctly prints:
@
Project MESSAGE: foobarbaz
@
But the best way to do the trick for me is like that:
@
myOldVariable = "Foo Bar Baz"
myNewVariable = $$lower($$myOldVariable)
myNewVariable = $$replace(myNewVariable,' ','')
@

It's such a shame that functions like "lower" or "upper" are not documented in the official documentation at http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/qmake-function-reference.html. Is there good reasons for that? For those looking for more documentation about qmake you can have a look at http://www.qtcentre.org/wiki/index.php?title=Undocumented_qmake.

For our plugins we have this in the .pro. It installs the plugin into the right path, depending on the version it was built with:

@
INSTALLS += target
target.path = $$[QT_INSTALL_PLUGINS]/designer
TEMPLATE = lib
CONFIG += debug warn_on qt thread exceptions rtti designer plugin

[quote author="u2bpavankumar" date="1303383293"]Please let me know whether Qt SDK RC 1.1 [labs.qt.nokia.com] works fine on Vista (32 bit system) or not. I could n't run the example programs provided as well. When I try to run, simulator crashes with following message on application output for animatedtiles example

Starting C:\QtSDK\Examples\4.7\animation\animatedtiles-build-simulator\debug\animatedtiles.exe...
Waiting for reply from simulator timed out
Invalid parameter passed to C runtime function.
Invalid parameter passed to C runtime function.
C:\QtSDK\Examples\4.7\animation\animatedtiles-build-simulator\debug\animatedtiles.exe exited with code 3

The same sdk works fine on my colleagues Windows Xp SP3 and he can run all the examples well.

Has anyone faced such problems in vista?? Please let me know[/quote]

I have this problem, did you figured out how to solve? thanks in advance

I have checked in the Event Viewer:

When it tries to starts, it shows an information event: The process (simulator.exe) requested the disabling of the desktop window manager. I guess this is when my screen blinks....

Another information event: Could not start the desktop window manager an running application disabled the composition.

Error message: Name of the application with errors: simulator.exe........

I hope this could help to find a solution.....

Thanks!

Hmm sorry, don't think I can help further here :(

Andre & Volker thank you - did it in Designer just how I needed it!

For the record, there are pre-built gdb binaries for MinGW at ftp://ftp.qt.nokia.com/misc/gdb/7.2/

Also, Qt Creator can debug MSVC compiled binaries, but you need to have Microsoft's "Debugging Tools for Windows" installer.

Thanks Tobias:
Yes, I do understand that the nonexistent / missing files / paths etc. need to be fixed.
Perhaps you, or anyone could take a look at a issue I'm having in trying to solve that at
http://developer.qt.nokia.com/forums/viewthread/6155/

Also, guess I don't understand what is needed for qmake to work?
I did not mention previously, but, I can build / compile / on the host environment, and run on the OMAP-L138 target some of the qt examples with the current installed environment using the command line i.e.
cd <directory where the application source is>
qmake -project
qmake
make

Not sure how that works (me qt nubee) when paths to qmake are incorrect and or non existent as shown above in the ./qmake -query above ?

Maybe you or ? could enlighten me on how that is working?
Thanks again!

By default, ther are no plug-ins for browsers. There was a "QtSolution":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/solutions/4/qtbrowserplugin/ some tiume ago. You can look at that topic. Perhaps it helps. But Qt itself has not Browser plugins available.

Edit: some seconds too slow.... :-)
