Hello, I've just committed (r13136) an initial attempt at creating smoke bindings for the qtwidget and extqt drivers.
A description of smoke: https://techbase.kde.org/Development/Languages/Smoke Basically smoke makes it easy (or at least easier) to write binding for Qt and KDE from scripting languages, or from Lisp, which was why I was interested. In our case these binding make it easier to integrate the Qt drivers into an existing Qt application that is being developed in languages such as Perl, Ruby, C# or Lisp. However, it does not quite work yet and I would appreciate it if someone who is more knowledgeable about cmake could take a look at bindings/qt_gui/smoke/CMakeLists.txt and suggest what I might be doing wrong. Basically what happens is that the program smokegen parses the qt.h file to decide how to create the smoke bindings .cpp files. These are then linked to create the smoke bindings library, libsmokeplplotqt. The problem that I'm having is that it seems to think that it should use float for PLFLT instead of double at the generation stage, but then the compiler errors out at the linking stage because it doesn't know how to convert float* to double*. If I create the smoke bindings by hand against the installed PLplot library as described here: https://github.com/HazenBabcock/cl-plplot/blob/master/commonqt-plot/README.txt then everything seems to work fine. My guess is that is because in the installed version the question of whether PLFLT will be a float or a double has already been resolved. This is the error message that I'm getting: Scanning dependencies of target smokeplplotqt [ 93%] Building CXX object bindings/qt_gui/smoke/CMakeFiles/smokeplplotqt.dir/smokedata.cpp.o [ 95%] Building CXX object bindings/qt_gui/smoke/CMakeFiles/smokeplplotqt.dir/x_1.cpp.o /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot_build/bindings/qt_gui/smoke/x_1.cpp: In member function ‘void __smokeplplotqt::x_QtPLDriver::x_10(Smoke::Stack)’: /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot_build/bindings/qt_gui/smoke/x_1.cpp:103:230: error: no matching function for call to ‘__smokeplplotqt::x_QtPLDriver::setGradient(int, int, int, int, unsigned char*, unsigned char*, unsigned char*, float*, int)’ this->QtPLDriver::setGradient((int)x[1].s_int,(int)x[2].s_int,(int)x[3].s_int,(int)x[4].s_int,(unsigned char*)x[5].s_class,(unsigned char*)x[6].s_class,(unsigned char*)x[7].s_class,(float*)x[8].s_class,(int)x[9].s_int); ^ /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot_build/bindings/qt_gui/smoke/x_1.cpp:103:230: note: candidate is: In file included from /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot-trunk/bindings/qt_gui/smoke/plplotqt.h:1:0, from /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot_build/bindings/qt_gui/smoke/x_1.cpp:2: /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot-trunk/include/qt.h:135:18: note: virtual void QtPLDriver::setGradient(int, int, int, int, unsigned char*, unsigned char*, unsigned char*, PLFLT*, PLINT) virtual void setGradient( int x1, int x2, int y1, int y2, ^ /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot-trunk/include/qt.h:135:18: note: no known conversion for argument 8 from ‘float*’ to ‘PLFLT* {aka double*}’ /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot_build/bindings/qt_gui/smoke/x_1.cpp: In member function ‘virtual void __smokeplplotqt::x_QtPLDriver::setGradient(int, int, int, int, unsigned char*, unsigned char*, unsigned char*, float*, int)’: /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot_build/bindings/qt_gui/smoke/x_1.cpp:323:73: error: no matching function for call to ‘__smokeplplotqt::x_QtPLDriver::setGradient(int&, int&, int&, int&, unsigned char*&, unsigned char*&, unsigned char*&, float*&, int&)’ this->QtPLDriver::setGradient(x1, x2, x3, x4, x5, x6, x7, x8, x9); ^ /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot_build/bindings/qt_gui/smoke/x_1.cpp:323:73: note: candidate is: In file included from /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot-trunk/bindings/qt_gui/smoke/plplotqt.h:1:0, from /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot_build/bindings/qt_gui/smoke/x_1.cpp:2: /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot-trunk/include/qt.h:135:18: note: virtual void QtPLDriver::setGradient(int, int, int, int, unsigned char*, unsigned char*, unsigned char*, PLFLT*, PLINT) virtual void setGradient( int x1, int x2, int y1, int y2, ^ /home/hbabcock/OpenSource/plplot-trunk/include/qt.h:135:18: note: no known conversion for argument 8 from ‘float*’ to ‘PLFLT* {aka double*}’ make[2]: *** [bindings/qt_gui/smoke/CMakeFiles/smokeplplotqt.dir/x_1.cpp.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [bindings/qt_gui/smoke/CMakeFiles/smokeplplotqt.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2 You'll have to edit the qt.cmake file to ENABLE_smoke.
