Error in using MultiPageWidget from QtDesigner
-
@JonB
Actually it gives an errors in multipagewidget.h itself which downloaded with Qt5 Files
and the errors are :
1-/usr/lib64/qt5/examples/designer/containerextension/multipagewidget.cpp:62: error: ‘QStringLiteral’ was not declared in this scope
comboBox->setObjectName(QStringLiteral("__qt__passive_comboBox"));
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
2-/usr/lib64/qt5/examples/designer/containerextension/multipagewidget.cpp:64: error: ‘QOverload’ was not declared in this scope
connect(comboBox, QOverload<int>::of(&QComboBox::activated),
^~~~~~~~~
3-/usr/lib64/qt5/examples/designer/containerextension/multipagewidget.cpp:64: error: expected primary-expression before ‘int’
connect(comboBox, QOverload<int>::of(&QComboBox::activated),
^~~
4-/usr/lib64/qt5/examples/designer/containerextension/multipagewidget.cpp:111: error: ‘windowTitleChanged’ is not a member of ‘QWidget’
connect(page, &QWidget::windowTitleChanged,
^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
and this the image of multipagewidget.cpp 's errors

The image link you show, just like before, just shows "cannot findmultipagewidget.h" from your source file. If it can't find it then it can't give errors from inside it. I'll leave it someone else, you need to sort how you are building. -

Hi
Just as a note.
There is also QStackedWidget which is a multi page widget.

Yeah , i know QStackedWidget and used it in this Design but i've many stuff so i need multipagewidget to container these stuff in it and MultiPageWidget similar to QToolBox in containg the stuff and MultiPageWidget the Perfect solution here -

Ok. fair enough.
You are using the Qt5 version ? (seems so)
C:\Qt\Examples\Qt-5.12.0\designer\containerextension
I just tried open it in Creator and it just compiled and generated the .DLL ( the plugin)So are you trying to use this in Qt4 ?
Im wondering why you get error as it just compiles here.
Also it seems that you are adding the sources to your app ?
And not create the SO file ( the plugin ) and copy it to designers plugin dir for it to load
when run.
So do you mean you want to use as a true plugin or simply use the Widget via promotion ? -

Thank you alot it works now , but just for curiosity why didn't it work with qt-qmake4 ?
i've both qt4-qmake and qt5-qmake and compiled this widget with qt-qmake5 and worked and the errors was on qt-qmake4 .. so if i wanna compile it with qt-qmake4 what should i do?

Congrats, you fist Designer plugin :)
Well with qt-qmake4 it would use Qt4 headers and stuff like QStringLiteral ( from Qt5.0) and QOverload (from Qt 5.7.)
is not defined there.
You can replace QStringLiteral with nothing and QOverload withstatic_cast
with SIGNAL/SLOT macros.
However, you could also just find the same sample in Qt4 samples.
(it seems to have existed back there)Anyway, if you build and use the actual Designer plugin, im not sure Creator will load it (if compiled with Qt4)
as Creator Qt5 based (unless its old version).You also need at Qt4 version besides the Qt5 version or why, if i may ask?

qt4-qmakeyou are compiling for Qt 4; when you build withqt5-qmakeyou are compiling for Qt 5. - There are changes in the Qt functions between Qt 4 and Qt 5.
- Code written for one of these may not compile in the other.

'windowTitleChanged' is not a member of 'QWidget'. Qt 5 documentation shows https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qwidget.html#windowTitleChanged, and says "This function was introduced in Qt 5.2.". Qt 4 documentation https://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-4.8/qwidget.html shows it did not exist back then. - This means that line of code must have been added just for Qt 5.

Sure , First of all thank you for your help
in the first i had only qt4 then my OS (which is fedora 29) lost his grub and also Windows but i was owning my project when installed a new Systems , i faced many problems in connecting the database and so on so i downloaded qt4 then qt5 coz qt5 downloaded with all .so files of mysql but qt5 consumes too much memory while compiling and make the system freezing Especially with GNOME but the final project will be compiled in Qt5 (and i guess i've to sober in using Qt5 Libraries For Performance .. right ? or it included the main Libraries ? )

Hi
Qt4 is really old so new development is best to do on Qt5.
And all the new stuff comes in Qt5+. So yes, much more fun to use.How much memory do you have?

@mrjj
i've 4 gb Ram when i use Qt5 and compile the code the memory usage reaches about 2.9 GB maybe more but i ain't know why only Qt5 make the system freezing (but i'll try the new upgrade of the system and see it again )
