        @SGaist said in Qt and Terminator like a terminal emulator:

        What exact error do you get ?
        Any message ?

        Qtcreator is running in terminal.
        I'm trying to run the project in the terminal.
        Starting... will last indefinitely.

          Shouldn't you use the "-e" argument ?

            no other argument works, exclusively in Qtcreator of course. just by executing "terminator -x" in the terminal everything works

              Did you try to start Qt Creator from the terminal just to see if you are getting some output that might be related to your issue ?

                I usually do this if I don't need to run my program in the terminal from Qtcreator. In defense of Qtcreator, I will say that "Open terminal here" or "Open terminal with" really open Terminator.

                  Qt Creator and Qt are two different things. Qt Creator is the IDE and Qt the framework used to build your application (as well as Qt Creator).

                  Hence I am suggesting you to start Qt Creator in your terminal so you might see some output when you try to start your application from Qt Creator.

                    1000 apologies for the substitution of concepts. wherever I wrote Qt above, I had to introduce Qtcreator(fixed everywhere it seems like ). found this
                    https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt-creator/qt-creator/+/33744
                    but it doesn't solve my problem.

                      Well, I might be wrong but it looks like Terminator's architecture might be radically different and not interact well in this use case. I would recommend contacting the authors to see if they can help you with that.

                        I wrote to them on the LaunchPad. While waiting for an answer, I think to test some other terminal emulators.

                          The problem has been resolved. It was Terminator's DBus server. While I figured out what's what, I learned to track system calls of programs. I know a little more now than I did before.

                            What was the final solution ?

                                Thanks !

                                I thought they would have a solution integrating with it. Oh well, at least you can now use it :-)
