Solved Free utility to convert Visual Studio .RC file to Qt .UI
-
The program "RCtoUI" will convert a Visual Studio .RC file to a Qt project which can display each dialog. The files created are:
- .CPP
- .H
- .UI
- .PRO
- .PRO.USER
- "_MIRROR.RC" file which is a re-creation of the .RC that can be compared for verification purposes
The files form a complete project which can be compiled and run with Qt Creator.
Download link: http://findyourfamilytree.com/exe/RCtoUI.exe. Just click on "File, Open" and browse to RC file.
Let me know if it is missing a DLL. If there's any interest I'll add an error log.

Hi, forum's moderators are typically getting some "allergic reactions" on unknown links especially to executables in the forum.
Please provide some information and details on what you provide.
I will bring this up in mods discussion and see, if there is somebody able to test and judge this.

Further to @koahnig :
Are you offering the source code of your program (not just the executable)? If so putting it up on github would perhaps be the best way to publish it? -
Hi
Thank you.
There is no change for the source code only?
Exe links are often blocked and flagged.
-
@koahnig Yes, I understand the issue. This is just the simplest and quickest way I can deliver a usable program. If I sign the code with my certificate will this address the problem?
@JonB Unfortunately there is some proprietary corporate baggage used in the code (CSV parsing, UTF8 conversion, etc) that I can't release.
@mrjj Trust me there is no malware in the code. It's just generic MFC. The results from the "VirusTotal" scan are false positives. When I run Kaspersky AV on RCtoUI.exe, I get "Safe: no threats detected".

Hi
Ok just asking. I know you didn't make any kind of malware.
Its just that .exe links have a hard life.
I fully understand if source can not be open. -
@mrjj I apologize, I realize the potential problems and I'm being naïve 😊
Here's another EXE I publish:

@Sprezzatura
Hi
Well i find it nice you are willing to share so
its more that direct exe link will be blocked by many.
However, a link to download from webpage IS more normal and
should work for most.
Thank you. -
@Sprezzatura
The RCtoUI.exe V1.0.0.1 (from file property details, not help-> about) does not support the checkbox control as it is NOT included in either the UI QT form's or the *_mirror.rc file.Any updates or work around for this?
P.S. The rest of the dialogs (18 in total) appear to have the rest of the widgets on them.
Thanks,

I try to convert a dialog (with OCX control like a TableView) and your program crash!!
Can you release the source code, so we can adjust/correct??
Thanks in Advance...
