Qt Creator and other tools

Ok thanks for all the replies. I will just code the connect(). Seems the simplest.

@tjl34567 said in Qt Creator Updating Locator Caches messages: qtcreator 3.5.1 From 2015, right?

@JonB said in How to change terminal color and icon: ANSI sequences work at least in Windows Command Prompt and Linux xterm or similar. You could simplify this by using a library like https://github.com/termcolor/termcolor

@jsulm Thank you, I didn't have CMake on this machine. I didn't know I had to install it manually but since I used an offline installer for the 5.12.12 version I guess it is not automatically done. I installed CMake and Qt Creator automatically detected it and now everything works fine. Thank you so much!

@cristian-adam yes, I just tried to use it on a other linux system (Linux Mint 22.04). cmake debugging can work on this system. i think maybe some environment make that debug can not work on my xubuntu 20.04.

@Christian-Ehrlicher Good point. I'd checked with the Debian maintainers of gpgme, and they replied they were Qt6-compatible (at least, that was my understanding). Taking your advice to try ldd, however, I get ron:~/$ ldd /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libqgpgme.so.15 .. .. .. libQt5Core.so.5 => /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libQt5Core.so.5 (0x00007f8bcf600000) So, Qt5Core but no mention of Qt6Core? That doesn't look good. I'll look into rebuilding it myself, I think.

I am a little further along, having installed MSVC 2019 Community edition and Qt 5.15.2, now the issue when I try to build the project: D:\XMLMPAM\clsDebugService.cpp:5: error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'errno.h': No such file or directory D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.29.30133\include\cstddef:12: error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'stddef.h': No such file or directory D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.29.30133\include\cstddef:12: error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'stddef.h': No such file or directory D:\XMLMPAM\clsModule.cpp:6: error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'errno.h': No such file or directory D:\XMLMPAM\clsModHelper.h:69: error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'stdio.h': No such file or directory D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.29.30133\include\cstddef:12: error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'stddef.h': No such file or directory D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2019\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.29.30133\include\yvals.h:12: error: C1083: Cannot open include file: 'crtdbg.h': No such file or directory Obviously something is wrong with the configuration, however I'm not sure what I need to do to fix it.

@AnneRanch said in how to recover from "missing event loop " rempve / reistall version 5.12 REPOST: Last time I did that it removed ALL unselected versions. The image litterally says: [select] ... components to install. Deselect installed component to uninstall them. What's the point of keeping all Qt6 releases? I would keep the latest Qt5, maybe an early Qt6 if you wish + the latest Qt6, but up to you ;-) missing "event loop " Do you think you broke your Qt5.12 installation or why the whole thing? I highly doubt that it's actually missing in Qt5.12 ;-)

@sierdzio Thanks that helped

@rjmx said in Qt6: QFont::setWeight error when using QTextEdit::setCurrentFont(): Entry::normalFont What is this? a QFont object? Where does it come from?

Using QtCreator on Windows for Debugging is slow. Someone found some Python script with info for std::vector debugging to be the culprit. Not sure if it is fixed by now. For larger projects I just use qmake to create a VS project and directly debug in VS. This works best on Windows. (CMake projects can directly be opened in VS.)

@RahibeMeryem you need to report this to Qt bug tracker - the sooner the better because a crash should be top priority for fixing before official release of Qt Creator 12.

@JoeCFD Thank Joe. from your answer, I do some research and I got that. Qt Multimedia is additional library so I need to install it from Qt maintenance tool.

@cristian-adam thanks cristian, that's what I'm after
