port qt3 app to desinger 4 ui files

[hvengel]

Sorry that is basically what I had tried before. I tried it again to make sure. The compiler gives me an error message that points at the end of

class MyDialog : public QDialog, public Ui::MyDialogBase

in mydialog,h and says :

mydialg.h:2: error: expected class-name before '{' token

There could be something else wrong since I can not get the makefile generated by qmake to run uic or moc and I have been doing this by hand (what a pain the the rear). But I was able to get the app to build and run using uic3 before I converted the ui files.

Try #include "ui_mydialogbase.h" (if your .ui file is called mydialogbase.ui). Make sure you re-run qmake.

OK I was having problems with make not running uic and creating the ui header files. After updating all of the header to say things like

#include <ui_mydialogbase.h>

make started creating the ui header files. At that point for the most part this is now working. I do have two of the dialog implementations that are still giving me problems with the setupUI(this) statement. It compiles about 'setupUI' was not declared in this scope. If I comment this line out of both of the dialog implementations it will build and run. Of course none of the signals/slots work and there is lots of functionality that is broken because of that. I know that the setUI(this) line has to be there I just need to figure out why I am getting the compiler errors on two out of seven of these. I can't see why these two are different but it is late and I am tired so I will take a fresh look at it tomorrow.

Thanks for your help I have gotten much farther along and I think I can get the port at least mostly working in the next few days.
