Qt Eclipse plugin setup

Message 1 in thread

Hi,

I've just installed the Qt Eclipse plugin release candidate (for C++,
not Qt Jambi) and I can't figure out what path I should put in the Qt
preferences.  Qt4 files are found in /usr/share/qt4, /usr/lib/qt4, and
/usr/include/qt4, but putting in any of those causes an error when I
close the preferences window.  Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Colin Kern

Dear Colin,

Someone else reported the same error, and there have been no replies that I
have seen addressing it. I have the same problem at times, but not all the
time. Did Eclipse record the Qt path you entered? It does on my system, even
though there are sometimes errors (which means they are coming from
somewhere else).

Anyhow, what you put in in the preferences tab is

/usr/share/qt4

Apparently Eclipse-Qt can figure out the include and lib paths.

I am running Eclipse Europa CDT, Qt-4.2.3, and Eclipse-Integration 1.0.0(gcc
3.3) under ubuntu Feisty Fawn. It doesn't work at all well.
 Eclipse-Qt can't find QtDesigner, and doesn't make needed .moc files, and
doesn't build debug versions of the project. I can't even get past the 3rd
step of the tutorial (AddressBook).

Being a recent convert to Linux from Windows (starting with Windows 1.0),
this is enough to send me back to Windows, and that seems unusually cruell.

Sorry I couldn't help more.

Cheers,
Phil Baker

Hi,
we currently don't really support using a Qt version that come with  
your Linux distribution.
If you set the Qt directory in the Eclipse Integration to your /usr  
directory (if your qmake executable resides in /usr/bin), then you  
will be able to build Qt applications with your distribution-supplied  
Qt version. The code completion etc will not work though (without  
changing the appropriate Eclipse/CDT settings manually).

If you want everything to work, you currently need to separately  
download and build the Qt OpenSource Edition from http:// 
trolltech.com/developer/downloads/qt/x11 . Then set the Qt path in  
the Qt Eclipse Integration to the source path of your Qt build.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Best regards, Eike

You could do what Ubuntu does: create a /usr/share/qt4 directory that looks 
like this:

/usr/share/qt4
   bin/
      designer -> /usr/bin/designer-qt4
      lrelease -> /usr/bin/lrelease-qt4
      lupdate -> /usr/bin/lupdate-qt4
      moc -> /usr/bin/moc-qt4
      qmake -> /usr/bin/qmake-qt4
      rcc -> /usr/bin/rcc
      uic -> /usr/bin/uic-qt4
   include/ -> /usr/include/qt4
   plugins/ -> /usr/lib/qt4/plugins

   etc.
