Using QML with Qt 4.5 SDK
-
Now I know this is completely a novice question but am currently considering creating a plugin for an application (maya 2011) Currently I was able to compile a small plugin using the QT 4.5 sdk that Maya 2011 was compiled with. and got that working just fine Now I would like to be able to add a QML interface to my plugin but when I compiled my application after adding the "QDeclarativeView" to the main .cpp I got an error stating "QDeclarativeView error: no such file or directory" Now I am guessing that this is because the class QDeclarativeView is only available in 4.7 ? Is this correct? I just want to make sure that I have not missed something along the way and to see if there was in fact a way to run the QML from a plugin compiled with the 4.5 sdk.

Yes, QML is available from Qt 4.7.0 onwards. Autodesk is using it's own branch of Qt, though, so maybe they have imported it in some recent release (just guessing).

Thanks Volker, I had actually already tried that and that was what was creating the error. Which to Sierdzio's point, is why I had a feeling it would only work with QT 4.7.0. forward. I had actually read a thread somewhere that indicated that it was possible to use QML with QT 4.5 but it did not give an explanation on how it was done which is why I decided to ask here.
