    If you want to know about the inner workings of OS(Windows more precisely), there is a classical work on it called "Windows Internals"(this book gets republished constantly, so it's always at the latest stand. the current is the 6th edition, with 7th being released soon). If you want to learn how compilers process the source codes, i would suggest to start with formal languages theory, with type-3, 2 and 1 grammars in Chomsky hierarchy(in this order). The information on this topic is usually a part of "theoretical informatics" lectures in universities. I think you can find a lot of material in your local library/internet on this stuff.

    @eengnerd Do I understand you correctly: you tried to install a plug-in for VisualStudio (which isn't developed by MS by the way) in QtCreator? You really expect this to work? How is MS related to QtCreator and Qt VS plug-in? And how did it fool you? If it is for VisualStudio then nobody should expect it to work with QtCreator... To me your post sounds like the usual MS bashing. I'm not a supporter of MS. I use Windows and Linux at home and develop software on Linux for a Linux based system in my job. I just don't like if people go to a forum and bash a company there instead to ask questions or help others...

    Hi @EatonCode, @EatonCode said in Hey you want to hear a start up joke ? What do you think?: According to my case manager it was shortly abolished after it's release. It was an early-bird offer, available from the launch date until 19 May 2016: https://blog.qt.io/blog/2016/05/10/qt-for-start-ups-get-it-cheap-while-you-still-can/ I am actually scared that I might actually love the Qt Commercial Version but not be able to afford it. I suggest you play around with the open source version of Qt first, to familiarize yourself with it and see if it suits your project(s). I'd imagine that porting your C# project would be a helpful learning experience. If Qt doesn't suit you, then stick to your original tools. If Qt does suit you, ask yourself: Are you able and willing to comply with the open source licenses for your business project(s)? If so, then simply use the free version of Qt. If not (e.g. if you want to use Qt Charts and still keep your app closed-source), then subscribe to the commercial license if it makes business sense. See https://blog.qt.io/blog/2016/01/13/new-agreement-with-the-kde-free-qt-foundation/ for a list of modules that are not available under LGPL (scroll down to the "Unified Product Offering" section) ============== Keep in mind also that there are 3rd-party offerings out there too, such as Qwt which provides LGPL-friendly graphing widgets so you might not need to depend on the GPL-and-commercial-only modules. Personally, I've been using the open source version of Qt from the outset -- mainly for hobby projects, but also a few small commercial apps (using LGPL modules). I haven't used the GPL-and-commercial-only modules in any serious projects yet, so I haven't needed the commercial license yet.

    Of course this is an option. I just wondering if it was possible to have direct acces to Data Pins to an easier implementation. I understand that's not possible so. Thank you very much!

    Hi Ok. A good place to create instance would been just after the setupUI in constructor of mainwindow. Just as note when you write donutr *r; You just declare it. A pointer to a donutr . but its not set to point to anything. So if u use it - without setting it to point to valid object. it will crash.

    Just in case someone is still looking for a Qt web framework and find this thread on Google, there is the Cutelyst framework, Qt based, C++11, small footprint, supports HTTP, FastCGI and uWSGI protocols, API very close to Catalyst framework, it started in 2013 and is actively maintained and improved, benchmarks will be released on #13 Techempower's round. Have fun! http://www.cutelyst.org

    @Aras Too complicated for me :) My experience on the neptune demo is limited to seeing it one time running at an event. Neptune looks like it could run on any machine, but it does have some imports in it. The Automotive list is probably the place to ask for tips.

    Hi, I don't have anything to add to the Qt-.NET comparison or the commercial pricing, but here's some other bits: @primem0ver said: I don't remember there being a numeric up/down control. QSpinBox and QDoubleSpinBox have been part of Qt since its early days. The tree view in Visual Studio used for navigation for example has different types of views and viewers built into it so that accessing file and projects is handled naturally from a variety of different object types so that you know exactly what your looking at. In Qt Creator, I only have one view format (that works... see below) and the default view doesn't have any additional view options besides a file view. When a file or reason for an object isn't apparent, and no file exists to give you feedback, there is no information/feedback at all. (Different outlining options seem to exist, but they are not automatically populated and most don't seem to work). It's not quite clear to me which view you're referring to, but are these what you're looking for?: http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-quick-tour.html#browsing-project-contents Could you describe in more detail the things that "don't seem to work"? (i.e. what you expected to see, and what you got instead)
