QWT Lib

[steg90]

Hi,

I have managed to build QWT library and was wondering how do I go about adding the qwt designer plugin into Visual Studio.Net so I can use the QWTPlot widget?

Any help is much appreciated.

Copy them to

C:\Program Files\Trolltech\Qt VS Integration\plugins

or something similar depending on where the integration package is installed.

Thanks for that, I copied qwt_designer_plugin.dll to the location you suggested and though I would have seen some more widgets appear when I started visual studio.net, but no, no extra ones?

Hi,

I can see the new widgets when I just use the designer stand-alone, this is strange.

Any ideas?

I've given up now with this, tried all sorts of possible solutions, but visual studio.net still fails to show the new widgets, yet in designer they appear.

I don't really want to have to reinstall QT4.3 as I'm on an evaluation version. I guess I can create these widgets dynamically?

This might be a problem with Qwt since the approach mentioned above seems to work fine for a custom widget plugin of my own.

I think you could be right. I can manage to create the Qwt objects dynamically, but only if I build the library to the same configuration as my application, i.e.if my application is running in debug mode, the Qwt library has to be built in debug mode. If I don't do that and just use the release Qwt library with my debug build of my app, every time I create a Qwt object, my application just exits
