QT Creator with Designer [SOLVED]

dakyaze

Hi,
I actually use VS 2010/VSAddIn, but I think about to switch to Creator. I have on problem with Creator, I cannot promote like native Designer (modified), because I need to derive from QMainWindow and QDialog. On native Designer 4.7.x, I changed \qt\tools\designer\src\lib\shared\promotiontaskmenu.cpp and \qt\tools\designer\src\lib\shared\qdesigner_promotion.cpp, to allow QMainWindow and QDialog are visible in the Promote-Dialog.
In QT Creator Source (designer), I could not found these files. How can I modify source, to achive same behaviour like native Designer ?

Regards,
Peter

I don't know a solution for the builtin designer component of Creator, but you can still use your external, native Designer to create the .ui files for the time being.

Hi, Volker
The same "promote" dialog is in Qt Creator Designer, which source does contain the List with "QMainWindow","QDialog","QFrame" and so on ?

Given that the Qt Creator Designer plugin links to libQtDesigner your changes should appear directly in Creator when you build it against your modified version of Qt.

Hi, Duck
thank you. I downloaded the sources, and it looks like, that the designer-plugin which is used by QT Creator comes directly from the qt version. So you are right.
I tried to create the Creator in VS2010 and converted the .pro into a QtAddin project, but there must be bugs, because I cannot create it. First problem is precompiled headers.
And I'm not sure, what I really need, when I create it with qmake, I do not want to use the git, I downloaded the zip of 2.4.0.rc and unpacked it into a subdirectory. Do I need perl, when I do not use git ?

SOLVED: Please forget all my questions, qmake && jom did the job. As my english is not so good, I didn't understand the "Readme" in full.....
