Qt Creator and other tools

There is another plugin that does what you expect: https://github.com/vivaladav/SIGBUILD A Qt Creator plugin to get notified when your builds terminate and to track their stats. Project Status Currently the plugin is usable and the project is under development with regular releases to update it to the latest major version of Qt Creator. People who want to start to use SIGBUILD need to build it from scratch following the instruction in the Development section. Because of the current status of the project, it's guaranteed only that SIGBUILD will work >with the latest version of Qt Creator. Previous versions are likely to work too, but they are >not officially supported, so please do not create issues for them. Current features Systray notifications Audio notifications Latest build info Session log Full Qt Creator options

Would it be acceptable to re-post the "update" ? Upon further research I have found than the failing project ( all in 5.15 ) is actually part of subdir project, and my guess is that that is why it worlds by itself but fails when added as subdir. The "bluetooth.pro" "main" suproject actually consist of two more sub protects. All of them are still "only" in 5.15 - no Qt 6 at all

Agreed that some screen elements can look small on a 4K monitor, but since you're spending all of your workdays in Qt Creator, eventually you'll learn all the keyboard shortcuts and perhaps introduce some of your own (at least I have). By then you'll permanently hide the menu with Ctrl+Alt+M and don't mind small-sized elements on the screen because they're fixed/static and you know them very well by heart anyway. My own C++ code, of course, that needs to visible and some days I'll increase the font size :-)

@Elerence-Hooke Not 100% sure for Qt DesignStudio but also with QtCreator most UI elements are only available through code as just a few are selectable from QtCreator's Widget toolbox. Menus like QMenu is not one of them.

@Renu hi, QtConcurrent already running tasks in different threads, why do you need to create a new separate one ?

Try disabling the code completion for Qt Creator, something like clang or clangd. You will have to hunt through all the settings/options, I cannot recall where it is (and am not running it now). You want to get the stage where Creator does not make any suggestions/comments on your code, or at least is not using the default clang to do that. Does that make the problem go away? Or, for example, if you have Creator running but no project/files at all open/loaded inside it, does it still happen?

It is not sufficient to enable modules for the compiler. Your build system (CMake in this case) needs to now about modules as well to compute the right dependencies. You have to tell CMake which files are defining modules (maybe have a look here: https://cryos.net/2024/01/c-modules-and-cmake/). Otherwise your build might fail (it also might just work right most of the time if the dependencies are accidentally compiled in the right order). If I'm not mistaken modules with CMake so far only work with the ninja generator. The reason why the build system needs to know about that is because if the compiler is looking for a module and it hasn't been compiled yet, there is no way for the compiler to tell the build system to just build the necessary module. So, the build system has to make sure that all modules have been built (in the right order) before regular compilation starts. (It would be certainly nice if the compiler could just compile the required module as well and then continue. But this is not how it works.)

Thank you for opening a bug report: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTCREATORBUG-32293

Thank you so much for pointing me at these settings! Disabling the QML debugging had no effect BUT unchecking "Run in terminal" solved the problem! [image: 9a45f121-16aa-4046-a61f-de5e0ded4653.png]

This might help.

Come to find out I was removing a label that didn't have any visible text when moving items around the UI. Once I added it back and/or removed it from the .cpp files, the UI compiled fine.

@kkmspb you're welcome! That's likely related to the old forum which rendered double $ as single hence using a space was mandatory in the answer to show that two were required.

@shokarta perf is only available on Linux, not Windows. E.g. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34641644/is-there-a-windows-equivalent-of-the-linux-command-perf-stat. I don't think MinGW offers a perf. You would have to search around for your own equivalent, and change command line. Basically you might want to try to do it externally from Creator. Linux perf I think would not tell you anything/much about what's going on in JS scripts. Don't know about Windows, MSVC has a profiler, don't know if you can use it best outside VS. https://forum.qt.io/topic/129737/qtcreator-5-performance-analysis-on-a-windows-10-platform https://training.kdab.com/portfolio/debugging-and-profiling-qt-applications-on-windows/ https://wiki.qt.io/Profiling_and_Memory_Checking_Tools https://stackoverflow.com/a/34689067/489865

@dano said in Qt VS Tools not (fully) working with MSVC 2022 & Qt 6.8.0: but now the Qt VS Tools (version 3.3.1 (rev.1)) seem to have stopped working. Do you mean this bug? https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTVSADDINBUG-1284 If not, please elaborate -- What exactly has stopped working?
