Qt Assistant 5 - Old documentation
-
I've just installed the new Ubuntu 13.04 and installed Qt5 as follows:
@sudo apt-get install qt-sdk@
When opening Qt Creator and going to "About", it successfully shows Qt version 5. However, when I open Qt Assistant, it still references to Qt 4.8. I want to install everything through apt-get rather than installing it through the official Qt installer. Does anyone know how I can make Qt Assistant referencing the Qt5 documentation?
-
AFAIK, qt-sdk package in Ubuntu is still based on Qt4.
But if you do have Qt5's QCH file somewhere, you can add it to Assistant in it's settings.
-
Yip, I've seen that option in Qt Assistant. Any place I can download the qch file?
-
It should be bundled with your Qt, or you can build it yourself if you have Qt sources configured. Search for *.qch files on your system, I don't know where Ubuntu packagers tend to place those files.
-
Nope, just got 4.8 .qch files. And now I'm back to building from source. I thought that Qt5 would finally be fully supported with apt-get in Ubuntu 13.04. But thanks in any case for your help.
-
You can install prebuilt packages from Qt Project downloads.
Building from source is always a tempting possibility, of course :)
-
The Qt version in the About dialog is the one Qt Creator is using. That got nothing to do with what your projects are using -- check Tools>Options>Build & Run>Qt versions for that.
The Qt version used in the project determines which help files are displayed.
-
I'm just going to install from the official Qt installer. Will solve a lot of problems.
