Why i can't change color of QString?

[VRonin]

If you just copy-paste the code you have to add DEFINES += MODELUTILITIES_STATIC to your .pro file

[Engelard]

@VRonin ye, first time tried to use someone elses code :D
Now i downloaded whole stuff like a normal person. Look at my post with screenshot above.

[VRonin]

Exact same answer.
There's a section in the readme that explains how to use the library: https://vsronin.github.io/QtModelUtilities/md__i_n_s_t_a_l_l.html

@VRonin I added that macro to .pro file and nothing changed, same 4 errors.

[VRonin]

You have to manually click on build-> rerun qmake every time you change something in the .pro file

[Engelard]

@VRonin of course i did that. Still same 4 errors

[VRonin]

let's do it manually then: remove all the MODELUTILITIES_EXPORT

[Engelard]

@VRonin said in Why i can't change color of QString?:

MODELUTILITIES_EXPORT

How? you mean edit your src files?

[VRonin]

yep!
All DEFINES += MODELUTILITIES_STATIC does is transforming MODELUTILITIES_EXPORT into an empty string. if that doesn't work then just manually do a find and replace

[Engelard]

@VRonin oKay. In what files that stuff which i should to replace? I only can assume that such stuff MODELUTILITIES_EXPORT is macro, so it must be in some .h files, right?

[VRonin]

Actually, it probably just easier to replace the entire modelutilities_global.h with

#ifndef modelutilities_global_h__
#define modelutilities_global_h__
#define MODELUTILITIES_EXPORT
#endif // modelutilities_global_h__

[Engelard]

@VRonin Done. But still that four errors(

Hi,

Do you mean the symbol missing error ?

Did you build @VRonin library statically ?

I tried multiple times: Build>Clean all>Run qmake>Rebuild all.

[SGaist]

Do you have a .dll file matching that library ?

[Engelard]

@SGaist What .dll? I just downloaded src folder, did'nt saw any dll in there

[SGaist]

The .dll if you have built @VRonin's library.

Otherwise, how did you integrate it in your application ?

Just included rolemaskproxymodel.h and start using that stuff what he showed in example

[mrjj]

@Engelard
Also the .cpp files , i hope ?

There's a section in the readme that explains how to use the library: https://github.com/VSRonin/QtModelUtilities/tree/dev#installation

And it states:

if you use qmake (Qt Creator), you can include the entire source of the library directly in your code by adding include(path/to/source/modelutilities.pri) in your .pro file.
