Re: [Qt-creator] How to put individual classes to sub dir
Dear Robert, Could you please take a look at my thread about organizing nested directories in the next Qt Creator release? In short, the project tree is like that: A normal Qt Project, with a pure directory, called Animal. I say pure because it's just a normal directory, not a project directory. This dir contains 2 subdirs: Dog and Cat. Each of them contains a Qt Class (.h, .cpp, .ui). That's all. Current Qt Creator can't do that. The first way, Dog and Cat would be placed at the same level with Animal. This way doesn't reflect the physical structure. The second way, Animal has 3 nodes: Forms, Headers, and Sources. Corresponding type of each class (form of Dog, form of Cat; header of Dog, header of Cat, etc) would be included in those nodes. This way seems intricate, complicated,... and not what the user expected. I read many threads about this issue: http://www.mail-archive.com/qt-creator@trolltech.com/msg01774.html Many users like to have this feature. Thank you and the Team so much!

In theory, ex01.pro includes Frames/Frames.pri, then Frames.pri includes Frame1/Frame1.pri, and Frame2/Frame2.pri. But it doesn't work as expected. Clearly Qt Creator 2.0.0 has many more nice features as compared to 1.x.x, but why I still find hard to use it... My favourite IDE is C++Builder 2009, and now I'm moving to Qt's world.

[Qt-creator] How to put individual classes to sub dir
Hello Group, I have a question about organizing subdir/nested classes in Qt Creator. I intend to use dozens classes (inherit from QFrame), to be promoted later. I want to have each of them grouped in a separate folder (dir). Like this: PROJECT_ROOT - Frames - - frames.pro - - Frame1 frame1.h frame1.cpp frame1.ui frame1.pri - Frame2 frame2.h frame2.cpp frame2.ui frame2.pri - ex1.pro - ex1.h - ex2.cpp File frame?.pri indicates HEADERS, SOURCES, FORMS File frames.pro simply includes those *.pri files. File ex1.pro: + TEMPLATE = app subdirs + SUBDIRS += Frames That's it. The problem comes when I'm trying to use frame1, frame2 in the main project (ex1). Although I specify INCLUDEPATH += Frames/Frame1 in the ex1.pro, ex1 can see frame1.h, but it doesn't know about frame1.cpp, so an error thrown: undefined reference to `TFrame1::TFrame1(QWidget*)' I'll try to summary the problem: how to put individual classes in subdir freely?

Re: [Qt-creator] How to put individual classes to sub dir
The error you are getting is a linker error not a compiler error (undefined reference). It looks like you will need to link against the other lib you are creating or do as Adam says and make an app project instead of a subdirs one and include all the sources in it.

Re: [Qt-creator] How to put individual classes to sub dir
My thought on the matter would be something like this: ex1.pro: include(Frames/Frames.pri) Frames/Frames.pri: HEADERS += Frames/Frame1/Frame1.h Frames/Frame2/Frame2.h SOURCES += Frames/Frame1/Frame1.cpp Frames/Frame2/Frame2.cpp FORMS += Frames/Frame1/Frame1.ui Frames/Frame2/Frame2.ui et cetera. Notice that you still need to use the path relative to ex1.pro, not to the .pri file -- this is a fairly common mistake. /s/ Adam On Mon, Aug 16, 2010 at 6:33 PM, Jakov dkym...@gmail.com wrote: Hello Alan, I'm editing the pri files. I search the old archive, and find out that whenever I include a .pri file, Qt Creator creates a virtual directory (a node) in the Projects window (on the left side). The main .pro file will include the frames.pri, so it would create the Frames node in the window: + ex1.pro: include( Frames/Frames.pri) + frames.pri: I think the frames.pri should do the same: include(Frames/Frame1/frame1.pri), but it doesn't work... So I left frames.pri empty. At this step, if I put a class in Frames dir, the project works fine. But I do want to make a lower level: adding Frame1 and Frame2 directories (which include their own classes) within Frames. There's no link line yet, Alan. Thanks for your quick reply!

What does your link line look like? Alan On Aug 16, 2010, at 3:54 PM, ext Jakov wrote: Dear Adam, Thanks for your reply. I remove the subdirs already, to make it a normal app project. I try-and-error many ways, but the layout is not as expected. Could you please suggest me the config or give me the document of using .pro and .pri file? The idea is, I want to group individual classes (.h, .cpp, .ui) in a separate directory (to have a better look, easy to find/edit/manage...) within the main project dir, or even at the same directory level with main project dir. I'd like to thank Alan, but there's no libs yet. They're just pure UI classes, just at lower directory level, as compared to main project directory. I'll not include every single .h, .cpp, and .ui in the HEADERS, SOURCES, FORMS in the main .pro, as those files will be included in corresponding nodes (Headers, Sources, Forms) separately. I'm looking forward to your guide... In the meantime, I'll try-'n-error again. I look at demo and examples in Qt SDK, but there's no helpful examples... Thank you again.

Just use a normal app project and use relative paths in the .pro file. If you want to organize the .pro file you can use include() with some .pri files -- Creator knows how to sort this out. (Note that .pri files consider paths relative to the main .pro file, not to itself.) Second, INCLUDEPATH += Frames in the main .pro file (or possibly in frames.pri) so that Frame1/Frame1.h can be found inside of the Frames directory. /s/ Adam On Mon, Aug 16, 2010 at 8:51 AM, Jakov dkym...@gmail.com wrote: Hello Group, I have a question about organizing subdir/nested classes in Qt Creator.
