how to use Qwt in Qt creator(1.2.1)?

[qtlinuxnewbie]

hi,
i am very new to this qwt and qt.
i have qt project in which few graphs are to be drawn.
my issues are:

1)i am using RHEL 5 server where qt3.3 is default and qt creator 1.2.1 was installed manually . now if i install qwt .it is taking qt 3.3 . so can anyone help me how to make Qt Creator 1.2.1 as default for installation.

2)or it is fine if i link the qwt libraries in my project .pro file and use the functions of qwt to draw graphs.

3)or suggest me any alternative method .

Thnks in advance

Hi,

for static Libraries see:
http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/2392...eed?highlight=

A tip from UWE was:
you have to build a static libray: remove QwtDll from the CONFIg options in qwt.pri and run make. Then you should find a libqwt.a instead of a libqwt.so, what can be linked statically into your application.


So do this and make libqwt.a visible to your project

my project file entires:
INCLUDEPATH \
+= \
/home/user/qwt-5.2/src
INCLUDEPATH += /home/user/qwt-5.2/lib
LIBS += /home/user/qwt-5.2/lib/libqwt.a \
-lqwt
