[Qt-creator] Source/header file templates
Hello list, it seems to me that I cannot define a template for new source/header files. IMHO, it would be useful, when the program is released under a license (e.g. GPL), which requires that you apply a standard header at top of every source/header file. Obviously, the templates should be defined on a per-project basis and it would be nice if Qt Creator could suggest to me the right header for a given license.

[Qt-creator] Translation Linguist issues
Hi All, I'm working on creating a new open source portal so I need to find solutions for some Qt Qt Creator issues, I wish to help me for finding them :-D 1. Is there any plan or task for integrating Linguist in Qt Creator? 2. Is there any plan or task for creating a wizard in Qt Creator for adding translations to specific project instead of manual adding? 3. Is there any tool for adding tr() function automatically for whole strings in specific project? 4. Currently, Phrase Book doesn't prevent duplicates! How I can fix this issue? 5. How I can collect .ts, .po and .xlf files in single Phrase Book? 6. Although Linguist supports .po files but it can't release .mo files! Is there any plan or task for adding this feature? 7. Currently, all translators have to call lupdate from command line for updating the translations, Is there any plan or task for adding update action in Linguist just like release action? Important notes: * Most these issues are solved in many GTK's development environments where are not exist or don't have practical solutions in Qt (ex. current Phrase Book doesn't help translators groups for working together). * I prefer to get answers for all my questions (sure if you can) because I'm planning to add some features to Linguist if they aren't exist or you don't have plans for them. -- Best Regards Muhammad Bashir Al-Noimi My Blog: http://mbnoimi.net ___ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator

You'll need to add an rpath option in your .pro file. Here's an example from one of my projects where I give the library directory for python, the rpath directory, and then the library itself. The directory named by rpath tells the executable where to look for this particular library.

Re: [Qt-creator] Navigating inside Editor question or suggestion
Chris, the IDEs you mention seem to satisfy your needs much better than Qt Creator, may I ask why you are interested in Qt Creator at all? I mean, if you prefer string based completion over semantical completion, Qt Creator clearly isn't the tool for you. Creator is all about understanding C++, and that is the direction it will continue to move into.

Re: [Qt-creator] How set -rpath or -rpath-link from QT project file?
While technically correct I strongly suggest against using absolute paths into your home directory like that. I would recommend instead using $$(PWD) as the base for a path (for instance, $$(PWD)/../mylib/) so that other people can build your project and still have it work. /s/ Adam On Wed, Dec 23, 2009 at 1:32 PM, Marc Durant mdur...@txcorp.com wrote: You'll need to add an rpath option in your .pro file.

Re: [Qt-creator] Navigating inside Editor question or suggestion
Visual Studio uses Ctrl-F3 to find the next occurrence of the word under the cursor, and F3 to find the next after that. That is to say, Ctrl+F3 is search for next occurrence of current word; F3 is find again no matter how you started the search. In vim, shift+8 is find next occurrence of current word and shift+3 is find previous occurrence of current word. In both cases you can use n to continue or use the same keystroke. (Apparently the mnemonic is that it's * and # like on a phone. Other than that it seems a bit senseless.) /s/ Adam ___ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
