[Solved] Doxygen for Qt Creator 2.7.0
-
Perhaps if you compile Qt Creator and doxygen from source it would work.
I always use doxygen from command line, works fine there :) But that is on Linux, I have not tried it on Windows.
-
:o Ohh.... always with the recompile everything ... lol ;)
I really don't want to do that if I can avoid it!, is there not a simpler way to use the plugin for Doxygen? - I guess it's doxygen that needs to be compiled for Qt so it uses my newer libs?
-
As said, I have no idea.
-
Any other offers? :)
-
It is the plugin you have to compile with the same compiler as Qt creator AFAIK. At least that is what I have done. I was not sure if I could mix the creator compilation (msvc2008 IIRC) with MinGW.
The main issues are the size of occupied disk space and that you have to recompile each time for each release. Therefore, I am happily continue to work with Qt creator V2.6.0
At sierdzlo
The doxygen functionality of the plugin is more than just doing the doxygen parsing. However, I have extended it a bit more, which really requires the compilation. -
Koahing, does that mean I just need to recompile that "Doxygen.dll" file?
And perhaps even the Doxygen.pluginspec (whatever that is)?I am going to get the sources from:
http://svn.kofee.org/svn/qtcreator-doxygen/trunk and then try to compile them with Qt Creator.... sounds about right?Thanks :)
-
IIRC you need to edit the pluginspec file, but that did not help alone. You need also to create a new dll.
I decided to compile Qt creator myself, since at least at that only MSVC2008 pre-builds of creator where available. But I did not want to install MSVC2008. Mixing my MinGW compilation did not work, therefore I have compiled creator and the plugin with the same compiler.
AFAIK the instructions were straight forward. Nothing special I remember. -
I could not get the sources from the SVN link so I got them from the webSVN link :)
Sources from: http://svn.kofee.org/listing.php?repname=QtCreator-Doxygen
However when I try to compile this doxygen.pro project I get errors:
Can't fine these files:
include( $$IDE_SOURCE_TREE/src/qtcreatorplugin.pri )
include( $$IDE_SOURCE_TREE/src/plugins/coreplugin/coreplugin.pri )
include( $$IDE_SOURCE_TREE/src/plugins/texteditor/texteditor.pri )
include( $$IDE_SOURCE_TREE/src/plugins/cppeditor/cppeditor.pri )
And cant find this either
#include <libs/extensionsystem/iplugin.h>I did a manual search over my Qt Folder, there are some .pri files in there but I can't find these ones anywhere!
What does it all mean? :o I have a feeling it is looking for the Qt Creator source file directory or somthing (after reading through the doxygen.pro file).
Thanks!

Yes, it does for sure.I did it more than 1/2 year ago, but since the source I required anyhow, my decision to compile the whole stuff creator and the plugin was more of an incremental one. After that never change a running system ;)
-
haha, thnaks! ohhh... my beard is growing long :o
I was trying to find where the source is for Qt Creator but my SVN does not seem to connect to the link. Is there a similar webSVN link for the repo?
Thanks!
-
I am not sure if you really want to fiddle around with the very newest changes in case if there is an issue.
It propose using the "zip from download page":http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qtcreator/2.7/2.7.1/qt-creator-2.7.1-src.zip
I had done that to.Another option would be starting with Gitorious which has really some benefits, but your beard might get even longer. ;-)
-
ok....beard a little longer...lol :)
I tried the zip link you sent me... but that failed to build. Then I realised that was for QtCreator 2.7.1 and I want it for 2.7.0 (as that is what the doxygen project is looking for). So I went and downloaded the 2.7.0 QtCreator sources. This time the compile worked :)
But the linking failed :(
I got these errors:

-
Yes. I downloaded the doxygen sources.
Then download the QtCreator sources and put them in the same folder as doxygen.pro looks for them
Then I open doxygen.pro in QtCreator 2.7.0 and build it.
The compile seems good, but the link with "ld" fails as above...
-
:o
ok, thanks for your help!, I have run out of time today so I will set this QtCreator build over night (I assume it takes a while) and report back in the morning, clean and shaved! :)
-
Depends on PC. For me, Qt Creator builds in about 15 minutes (quad core with HT).
-
I think it took a bit more than 15 minutes. However, I did not use the potential of my quad core. IIRC the MinGW version did not support. At least I did not know how.
IIRC there was a thread on taking advantage of multiple cores, which was not enthusiastic. Somehow I connect some reluctant comments with Tobias, but that might be wrong. Nevertheless, so far I did not see issues with compilation in creator and using the option -j 4 for MinGW. -
Hmm interesting, I myself use Doxygen (under Mint KDE 14) but throw its Wizard GUI and I didn't try to use Qt Creator plugin.
Now after successful building could you please contact the maintainer of Qt Creator Doxygen Plugin to notify him/her about the new binaries?
P.S. I appreciate to publish your build for Qt Ctrator 2.7.0 here :)
-
By the way, I modified "Wiki page":https://qt-project.org/wiki/Qt_Creator_Plug-in_Gallery until some one build Qt Creator binaries for 2.7.x
