Shared Library Dialog
-
Ok. I know no samples that pops a dialog.
The other examples are about expanding the host application.
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtwidgets-tools-plugandpaint-example.htmlSo im afraid u must keep looking.

The example doesn't seem to show a dialog (or any other resource) inside a module. It appears to simply echo text back from a module without any resources to an application.
Ideally I would like an example already done that demonstrates my goal. If there is none, the next choice would be a tutorial on how to do it.
Failing all of that, documentation that will give me confidence this will work. I can work from there to create my own example.
I would very much appreciate a full example.

I would expect an example to have 2 projects. One that creates the plugin with the dialog, the other an application that uses it. Are my expectations not correct?

ok let me check zip. there should be 2 folders. did u unzip correctly?

Make sure you unzip it all. do not click inside the zip file.
extract all first. -

@mrjj ,
I must have used the wrong extraction procedure. I'm not up on Windows compression, my mistake.
I'll take a look. This looks much better. Thanks.

well windows native zip handling, does "help" one by sort of showing like a folder. :)
Note. to add dialog to sample was very little.
Just add Dialog via FIle->New and then add include to plugin and change
interface function to show ( exec) dialog. -

yes its a DLL
for me its in
E:\build-echoplugin-Desktop_Qt_5_5_0_MinGW_32bit-Debug\pluginsThe PRO file alters the destination.
Its so the main program can find it.look for echoplugind.dll
it might also copy to
$$[QT_INSTALL_EXAMPLES]/widgets/tools/echoplugin/plugin -

It seems @mrjj beat me to it. This thread, however, could also be useful for you.
