Qt Creator: Difference between revisions

Revision as of 01:59, 15 June 2016

Effortless debugging
Full CMake support using CMakeLists.txt - Qt build and run parameters are stored in CMakeLists.txt.user

A new project defaults to an "all" build/run configuration; you will want build {debug|release} and run {debug|release} configs
- Use the projects button in the sidebar
- Rename "all" build to "release"

Build dir: ./cmake-release
Delete make step, replace with custom step: 
  cmd: ./build.sh
  working dir: %{buildDir}

add arguments, eg: melange 8080 test reanalyze
working dir: use the project dir
[x] Run in terminal

Tools->Options->Environment->Terminal-> dropdown should include: /usr/bin/gnome-terminal -x

Clunky multi-window support; this gives you a new window that you can put on a different monitor; but you have to keep the Qt Creator command window around, don't use it to edit though bc ctrl-tab may pop you into another window

Window-> Open in new window
