LibQxt is an extension library for Qt that provides a suite of cross-platform utility classes to add functionality not readily available in the Qt toolkit by Trolltech, a Nokia company.
Installation
Configuration
Make sure qmake is in your PATH and run
./configure
See configure -help for more information on configuration options.
From the directory in which you untarred the sources:
make && make install
Using Qxt in your project
Add the following lines to your .pro file:
CONFIG += qxt
QXT += core gui
The QXT variable should contain the modules you want. (In this example core and gui are used.) Note: Some modules depend on other modules. The required modules are added automatically. if you have an existing msvc project and can't swtich to qmake you can use zbenjamins solution:
How to use libqxt in a existing Visual Studio project:
- create and install libqxt. (See install instructions)
- add {libqxtinstalldir}\include\qxt\QxtCore to your include path
- add {libqxtinstalldir}\lib to your library search path
- to add a specific libqxt module (f.e QxtSql) you have to:
- add {libqxtinstalldir}\include\qxt\QxtSql to your include path
- add the library QxtSql.lib to your project Most of the times you have also to include the QxtCore and QxtKit modules. It's done the same way like the example above.
