How to use QtWorkbench-0.6.0_alpha.cbplugin?
« on: April 13, 2014, 09:59:07 pm »
I dump the file into codeblocks plugin folder to no avail.
So how can I use this plugin?
I am basically looking for QT-codeblocks integration.
So I can create .qrc, ui so on files on the fly.
Thank you very much
Jack

Still can't install, Don't know why it has a cbplugin extension, rather than DLL?
Thanks
Jack

Because it is probably a zip file, which contains several other files than the DLL.
As far as I remember  QTWorkbench has been abandoned long ago, so if you're using old binary with a new version of C::B the it won't probably work, because the ABI/API of C::B's SDK is different.

Thanks for your response.
I wonder what other tools are available for QT/C::B integration?
Basically, I need something to generate the ui files?
Thanks

BTW, it's indeed a zip file in disguise

I am a little bit confused
QtDesigner is inside qttools, is qttools inside the everywhere source code of QT?
What about QTCreator?
BTW, if there are no clear advantages (just for me), I would like to downgrade to lower versions of Codeblocks
because I really need something to deal with the QT interface files

Thanks
Jack
