2°) i put unzip and i put the folder in /home/firstname/
3°) i open a linux console i go in the folder: "/home/firstname"
4°) i do the command "sudo QMAKE" after this, the commande "sudo MAKE", and "sudo MAKE INSTALL"
5°) after i put in my .pro file this "CONFIG+=qxt"

i run QMAKE and i compil but i have this error (in french):

Démarrage de /home/firstname/programmation/myProject...
/home/firstname/programmation/myProject/programm error while loading shared libraries: libqwt.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It should be:

Code:

---

CONFIG+=qwt

Also, did you setup the library path? You could do this by either using ldconfig, placing symlinks to the qwt lib folder inside a folder listed on LD_LIBRARY_PATH or adding the path to qwt lib folder to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable. The former can be done with something like this (change the path to the qwt lib folder as required):

Code:

---

export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/qwt-6.0.1/lib/

---

(you could put this inside your .bashrc file).

There are many threads on this. See:
http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/1073...cute-examples?

Or, check to see if your Linux distribution already supplies qwt - most do. If so, you can install it with your package/software manager with a single command or click.

=> merci Bah, i will try thank you

=> sixDegres: i have tested on linux this:

apt-get install libqwt-dev

it install the library but i have already the same problem

I installed version 5 of qwt from the repositories like this: sudo apt-get install libqwt5-qt4-dev

Then in the .pro file:

INCLUDEPATH += /usr/include/qwt-qt4

LIBS += -l qwt-qt4

And everything is fine :)

it looks like nice but i have a new problem. During compilation i have this message:

"class QwtPoltCurve" has no member named 'setSamples'

it's strange because when i use windows i haven't this problem :mad:

I gave a quick look on both the docs and the source of qwt 5.x and 6.x and I couldn't find the setSamples method on the QwtPlotCurve class on 5.x, while it was pretty easy to find on 6.x: are you sure this method wasn't introduced on 6.x? Btw, I'm no qwt expert, so I could be missing something.

thanks for your help, perhaps, i don't know...
i will try check this

"SetSamples" is new in qwt6. you are mixing qwt versions...
