Annoying problem with Qt Creator software after update
-
I guess the update has switched the license server from using a local file to checking the license online.

where do i write this?

On the command line. The executable is in your Qt installation directory under
...\Tools\LicenseService.
My guess is that your internet connection / firewall doesn't allow the license server to call home.
If the log output supports this assumption, you can set the environment variableQTLICD_LICENSE_IMPORT_PATHto your local license file. -

That’s the license directory, not the one I asked you to look up.
Here it is on my PC:

By default, Qt License Service is automatically installed as an on-demand service when you install any Qt or Quality Assurance product with Qt Online Installer.
However, sometimes you might need a different launching method for Qt License Service. In these cases, you can install Qt License Service manually. Manually installed Qt License Service can operate either as a system service, as an on-demand service, or as a user-space process.
( https://doc.qt.io/qtlicenseserver/qls-how-to-install-service.html )
And... I mean... If you don't find it, it can't be stuck or the reason why your QtCreator isn't working properly, right?!

Please do create a bug report at https://bugreports.qt.io/secure/CreateIssue.jspa?pid=10512
Don't be shy with the information, the more the merrier.
You can enable the Qt Creator's Screen Recording Plugin install
ffmpegand do a screen cast, and export as.mp4. You can have two Qt Creator instances, one for screen recording and the other for opening the project.This way we can see how bad the things are 😅

@Kris-Revi The funny thing is that I had the same problem with QtCreator 14 on Ubuntu 22.04. But the same issue is gone in QtCreator 15 on Ubuntu 22.04. I am wondering if Qt developers have done enough testing before any releases.

Thank you for the video. I don't think this has anything to do with the licensing, you can forget about it.
The issue with licensing was that Qt Creator wouldn't start.
But this is a code completion issue. Some questions:
- How powerful is the computer that are using?
- Do you have
clangdenabled in Preferences > C++ > Clangd - Can you compile your project?
In the video we can see that the code model has some issues. The project is not correctly configured.
-
Computer specs
- MSI Z790-P PRO
- Intel Core i9-13900K
- DDR5, 5600MT/s 32GB 2x16GB DIMM
- ASUS DUAL GeForce RTX 4070 SUPER OC
so don't think that is the problem
Clangdis enabled
also i was able to build/compile my project just fine
(FIY the project i had loaded in the video was a faulty project i just loaded up quickly to show the cursor loading problem)
