[Qt-creator] The last two weeks in Creator
Hello! We managed to skip last weeks report (again), so today we have two weeks worth of changes for you: ---++ Nokia Qt SDK * Nokia Qt SDK version 1.0.1 was released. It includes Qt Creator 2.0.1. See: http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2010/09/14/nokia-qt-sdk-101-released/ ---++ Designer * Support for QIcon::theme was added to Designer: Use the icons from your preferred theme! This will become available in Qt 4.8. ---++ Generic * Creator can now auto-restore the last open session. This can be done either globally via the UI (File-Session-Session Manager, check Restore last session there) or for the next start only via the command line switch -lastsession. * Generic Highlighting and what it can do was blogged about: http://labs.qt.nokia.com/2010/09/16/generic-highlighter-in-qt-creator/ ---++ Qmake * Project wizards were extended to make the generated .pro-files more usable for use in SUBDIRS pro-files. * New wizard to help with adding new library dependencies to .pro-files. ---++ Symbian * Deployment of shared libraries to Symbian devices should finally work. Some wizard to set up the deployment-related .pro-file section still needs to get added. * Deployment of SUBDIRS projects to Symbian devices does work now. ---++ Maemo * QML and Mobile wizards were steamlined and improved for Maemo development. ---++ Debugging * The thread list in the debugger can now display thread names. One source of those names is the objectName ot QThreads. * Loading of gdb was optimized (Linux only). ---++ Documentation * Many new features found in QtCreator master were documented. Check your documentation for all the awesomeness;-) ---++ Nightly Builds * Our build system infrastructure was much improved. * Nightly builds of the master branch are now available at: ftp://ftp.qt.nokia.com/qtcreator/snapshots/ All work (except for the Designer part!) happened on the master branch available here: http://qt.gitorious.org/qt-creator Please feel free to give it a try:-) Please report any issues you run into or suggestions for improvements here: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/ Best Regards, Tobias -- Tobias Hunger Software Engineer Nokia, Qt Development Frameworks Nokia gate5 GmbH Firmensitz: Invalidenstr. 117, 10115 Berlin, Germany Registergericht: Amtsgericht Charlottenburg, Berlin: HRB 106443 B Umsatzsteueridentifikationsnummer: DE 812 845 193 Geschäftsführer: Dr. Michael Halbherr, Karim Tähtivuori ___ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator

---++ Qmake * Project wizards were extended to make the generated .pro-files more usable for use in SUBDIRS pro-files. * New wizard to help with adding new library dependencies to .pro-files. Just had a quick play with the library wizard. This is a HUGE step forward for Creator! ___ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
Re: [Qt-creator] The last two weeks in Creator
Hi Tobias, Yeap, that were just examples. You could always build both Qt and Creator within Creator... and both provide nice biggish projects to test our code with, too:-) The advantage of VS/MFC against QtCreator is that it is easy to create static builds. I hope, that one day Nokia will have the additional development resources to add both, static libs and DLLs/SOs to QtCreator. This would help a lot.

Re: [Qt-creator] The last two weeks in Creator
I've found it reasonably easy to create static builds of apps with Qt Creator (or did you mean Qt itself, which needs the command-line?). See the following if the former: http://www.formortals.com/build-qt-static-small-microsoft-intel-gcc-compiler/ http://www.formortals.com/how-to-statically-link-qt-4/ On Tue, Sep 7, 2010 at 3:44 PM, Carsten Breuer carstenbreue...@textwork.de wrote: Hi Tobias, Yeap, that were just examples.

Re: [Qt-creator] The last two weeks in Creator
And here they are, now dubbed 2.0.90 (since we are approaching 2.1): ftp://ftp.qt.nokia.com/qtcreator/snapshots/2010-09-04/ Warning: I haven't tested them in any way after switching from the 2.0.1 release branch. They might explode in your face, take your first-born or (if you are lucky) just not work. Consider reading [1] before reporting any problems. You have been warned!

[Qt-creator] The last two weeks in Creator
Hello! We managed to skip last weeks report, so today we have two weeks worth of changes for you: ---++ Generic * Version 2.0.1 was released. See http://labs.trolltech.com/blogs/2010/08/25/qt-creator-201/ * Q_ASSERTs and the location of failed testcases can now get clicked in the application output and will take you to the source location referenced. This works only for qmake projects. * New features got documented: * Generic highlighting * Qt Quick Toolbars * New deployment options * A new TaskList plugin was added. It can be used to import Tasks from a file. See http://lists.trolltech.com/pipermail/qt-creator/2010-August/007574.html * A Issue stopping the debugger from starting an application in the terminal was fixed. * Attaching the debugger to PID was fixed. * MSVC parser was improved ---++ C++ Engine * Reduce memory consumption by about 30%. * Loading qtcreator.pro now takes 210MiB instead of 300MiB. * Loading qt/src.pro now takes 420MiB instead of 630MiB. * Find usages was unreliable when using the MSVC toolchain. This was fixed. ---++ Nightly Builds * Work is ongoing to update the build servers. Once this is done we can enable nightly builds of master. All work happened on the master branch available here: http://qt.gitorious.org/qt-creator Please feel free to give it a try:-) Please report any issues you run into or suggestions for improvements here: http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/ Best Regards, Tobias -- Tobias Hunger Software Engineer Nokia, Qt Development Frameworks Nokia gate5 GmbH Firmensitz: Invalidenstr. 117, 10115 Berlin, Germany Registergericht: Amtsgericht Charlottenburg, Berlin: HRB 106443 B Umsatzsteueridentifikationsnummer: DE 812 845 193 Geschäftsführer: Dr. Michael Halbherr, Karim Tähtivuori ___ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@trolltech.com http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
