I have Qt3 Designer and I have a C++ source file with this code in it (the code is from a tutorial):
| CODE |
#include <qapplication.h>
#include <qpushbutton.h>
int main( int argc, char **argv )
{
QApplication a( argc, argv );
QPushButton hello( "Hello world!", 0 );
hello.resize( 100, 30 );
a.setMainWidget( &hello );
hello.show();
return a.exec();
} |
This is the text for the project file I created:
| CODE |
| SOURCE += tutorial.cpp |
This is the command I used to generate a makefile with gmake:
| CODE |
| gmake -o Makefile tutorial.pro |
The text returned was:
| CODE |
| gmake: Nothing to be done for `tutorial.pro'. |
How do I use gmake to generate makefiles for my projects?
your project file is incomplete
minimum specs:
| CODE |
TEMPLATE=app
SOURCE=tutorial.cpp \
someothersourceperhaps.cpp
|
and you can just use the standard make :)
in windows though, you need to type nmake
Thanks for the reply. :)
I will do what you said and see if it works. :)
EDIT
I found out that it's qmake and not gmake. I typed qmake in a terminal but it said the command was not found. Maybe qmake isn't installed? If so, where can I get qmake?
Suppose I have a C++ source file named source.cpp and I used Qt, how would I compile it? Thanks for your help. :)
/usr/qt/3/bin/qmake
it may be it is not in your $PATH
or that $QTDIR is not set
if your sourcefile.cpp is just this simple and has no header with the Q_OBJECT macro then do this:
g++ -I. -I$QTDIR/include -L$QTDIR/lib -lqt sourcefile.cpp -o myprogram
and I noticed my info in the previous post was a bit confusing. Here is a correction:
use the .pro file I posted but add HEADERS=myheader.h
ONLY if you have a header
you can also add TARGET=myapp to set the executable name
then type
qmake -o Makefile myapp.pro
make
and in windows this make should be nmake
Thanks for your help. I'll see if it works.
