Qt Creator

[giusepped]

I have problem with code completion.
As code completion start the keyboard inputs are not accepted anymore.
If a switch to another view and back to the editor view, the keyboard is restored.

OS is Fedora 7.

You can send an email to qt-creator@trolltech.com with the single word "subscribe" in the body (sans quotes).

One bug, for example, is if you add a text control to a form and then try to get something like
ui.something->setText("some text");
to work it won't work until you close Qt-Create and restart it. This bug has been fixed and will be in the next release.

Hello,
I hope i post in the right post !

I use qt-creator and I've a bug when I try to use debug mode. When I clic on "start debug", the build is ok. But I have juste a button "Interrupt" (shift+F5) and on the debug window, my cursor is in wait mode. I have put severals breakpoint, but nothing.

In normal mode, my program is ok.

I use OpenSuse11.1 and this packets is installed : qt4... devel, debugsource, debuginfo.

An idea on this problem ?

Does this also happen on a small project?

gdb generally may takes ages to load debug information
of "big" libraries, especially if it's in separate files as Qt's.

Yes, I have just one mainwindow and a QPushButton And I wait severals minutes, but nothing.

"Several minutes" should be enough. I have never seen it take that long.

Try not to put a breakpoint in a constructor of a class. gdb's "machine interface"
is somewhat broken there, and that's what Qt Creator alpha (and Eclipse etc) use as far as I can tell. If that does not help, asking directly on the "support list" qt-creator@trolltech.com may possibly help.

Hi all,
I've been watching Qt as a multi platform system for a number of years now but have'nt found it easy enough to warrent changing (I normally use Borland Builder for Windows) and the Eclipse IDE is a nightmare, but I accidently came across Qt Creator - wow - nice and simple at last !
Ok, it's only in beta now and crashes frequently but I would actually be tempted to port my stuff over to Linux and give the Microsoft piggybank the finger. I use a mid range bit of kit and don't find the complie times too slow (ok quite a bit slower than Borland but still in reasonable real time).

I am currently trying to translate my Borland Builder serial port driver into Qt on Windows (I used the QextSerialPort as a basis to show Qt ways of reasoning) but I have a niggling bug that may be due to the Beta stage of Creator - I am using some QComboBox's in a popup widget, these can be pre loaded with values ok but the moment I use setCurrentIndex or currentIndex on them I get a crash with a Windows exception fault. Using these on a test project on a mainWindow works ok but I am using them in a widget/dialogue class behind a widget/QIODevice class behind the mainWindows class - any thoughts anyone - or is it time to wait for the next version of Creator ?

If you talk about nighmares, Borland Builder is the biggest one I've seen Well... maybe apart Visual Studio 6, but that's another story.

I guess you are mistaking a compiler (like GCC, MSVC or Borland Compiler) with development environment (Creator*, Visual Studio, Borland Builder) and toolkit (Qt, MFC, <does Borland even have a toolkit?>).

*) Qt Creator is not really an IDE but an advanced programming editor

(...) but I have a niggling bug that may be due to the Beta stage of Creator - I am using some QComboBox's in a popup widget, these can be pre loaded with values ok but the moment I use setCurrentIndex or currentIndex on them I get a crash with a Windows exception fault.

Qt Creator has nothing to do with that. It's just a text editor. The crash is caused by your code, you probably reference a non-existing widget or index in the widget, but that's not the right forum to discuss this issue.


By the way, Borland Compiler is the most broken compiler of them all, it can't generate proper C++ code, maybe that's why it's so fast

I can't seem to install it on Ubuntu. The error message is below.

"Installer payload initialization failed. This is likely due to an incomplete or corrupt downloaded file."

I've got all the qt dev tools installed and can actually develop normally using qt designer and qmake on the command line.

Any suggestions?

Did you try to download Qt Creator again? The error message suggests that something went wrong when downloading the file.

Thanks for the reply.

Yeah, I downloaded it three times (twice with firefox and once with wget cause I thought FF might be corrupting the file). Same result every time.
