    Hi,

    I would like to modify source code of QWT library. It is quite big library and I would like to modify its QMake files to build app instead of a library and create there a main.cpp where I could test my changes.
    Or if anyone has experience of modifying source code of some external library maybe could give me some hint how to do that?

    I don't know how to give more info about my problem, there is the link to this library: qwt_link

      Use Qt Creator to open qwt/src/src.pro (https://sourceforge.net/p/qwt/code/HEAD/tree/trunk/qwt/src/src.pro )

      Replace TEMPLATE = lib with TEMPLATE = app and add your main.cpp. to the project. Now, you can build and run an application directly from the Qwt source code.

      When you have finished, I suggest contributing your changes back to the Qwt project if it is something useful to the community.
