    Don't you think that's something which would better fit in Qt Software section???
    As I'm myself played a lot with plugins I'll give it a try and feed you back.

    Why are you using CMake for a plain-Qt software? Well actually that's not a problem but you should at least provide a regular .pro file... It's really boring to be forced to download cmake (besides the installation is tricky under Linux)..

    I have download too the archive to get a try, result : CMake require, my choice : delete archive.

    That's a pity forcing using cmake for a plain Qt Project !

    @hotsherbert: please considere providing a qt pro file, or at least some makefiles.

    P@sNox,

    Maybe just a little tricky to install properly under Unix systems... I myself downloaded the latest version (something like 2.4.7) and just found binaries (bad! ) and not even an install script... I thus copied the files in proper locations and when trying to run cmake I got an error : CMAKE_ROOT not set... Too bad...

    You have just downloaded the precompiled version instead of sources.

    This program was developed using KDevelop and was intended for the KDE desktop. However, as no KDE4 beta has appeared yet I decided to put it out as a Qt program.

    Has anybody got any idea's on generating a pro file or will it have to written from scratch.

    A .pro novice!

    You can start with "qmake -project".

    The project option should save a lot typing!

    I'm going to use the project generation to create a subproject in each directory and then bind them all together in the main project file.

    Any tips or pitfuls on using this approach would be most appreciated.

    Thanks.

    The latest version of svn at www.sourceforge.net/projects/qtaps now comes with a vast array of qmake project files which support the libraries and plugins.

    Instructions can be found in the INSTALL file. It has compiled and ran ok for me!

    I shall do some testing over the weekend and cut a release early next week.

    svn instructions can be found here http://www.laiuk.com/forrest/softwar...ubversion.html, ignore the build instructions as there fore CMake.

    Thanks for the help all, it saved a lot of time.
