I'm working now with ROS (i.e. the robotic operating system). At this moment, it is not that difficult since they use C++ and CMake. And It is a good news actually for Qt users since Qt 6 is heading toward CMake rather than QMake. There is little thing I'm worried about which is when a node (i.e. merely .exe file) is created, we have to pass main arguments variables to ros class as follows
ros::init(argc,argv,...)Will this cause any problems with building Qt GUI? Another point is the looping thing for a continuous work. They do have
ros::spin()How can one manage things for mixing such projects?

@CroCo said in Mixing Qt GUI with ROS (Getting Started):

Not with building. What's the prototype of this function?
How can one manage things for mixing such projects?
What does this
ros::spin()do? Is it blocking, for how long, can you wake it up, and so on ...? -
Hi,
Did you already check ROS's rqt ?
