How I can Run C code in QT creator?

Wasee

Hi everyone;
I want to run C code in qt5, is it possible or not? If yes then how it can be done easily?

Thanks

Christian Ehrlicher

What problems do you face? It's not different than c++.

@Christian-Ehrlicher
This (https://github.com/analogdevicesinc/iio-oscilloscope) is opensource ADI API implemented in C + GTK I need to use few function then how can I can use them in QT.

And what's the actual problem then? Simply include the headers of the library and link against the libs.

@Christian-Ehrlicher
Thanks for your valuable response! Kindly give me very small example from this ADI API so that I can do it with ease.

Thanks

@Wasee Why do you ask in Qt forum for an example for an unrelated API?

Wasee

@jsulm Hi;
Because I didn't know about how to work with C in QT? If you have another from this API outside example of C with QT then you can quote.
Thanks

@Wasee You are asking two different questions:

How to use a library?
How to use a specific API?

Do you understand that?

Using a library is not that hard. @Christian-Ehrlicher already told you what you need to do.

Qt is not a language. It's just some code written in C++. You call something written in C like you would from any C++ program, Qt is not relevant here.

You say that this uses GTK. Since it is an oscilloscope I presume that it provides some widgets for display as well. If this is the case you cannot mix Qt and GTK for windowing. At least I wouldn't try it. And even if it works this will be way beyond your current experience level.
