qtscriptgenerator

[ivareske]

I can compile the qtscriptgenerator fine, but I am not able to import any of the extensions used.
I use:
qApp->addLibraryPath(path_toplugins); //I have added lots of different paths at the same time, the script folder/plugins folder etc. just to be sure
QScriptEngine *engine = new QScriptEngine(this);
QString libpaths = qApp->libraryPaths().join("\n");
qDebug()<<libpaths; //prints the paths I set
QString exts = engine->availableExtensions().join("\n");
qDebug()<<exts; // empty!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
QScriptValue tmp = engine->importExtension("qt.core"); // error: unable to import qt.core: no such extension

I`m using windows xp and Qt 4.6.3, mingw
Any ideas?

Did you copy the extensions to the appropriate place?

Did you copy the extensions to the appropriate place?

Where is the appropriate place?
I thought it didn`t matter where they were as long as I set
qApp->addLibraryPath(path_toplugins);
to the place they are located. I am sure I have set the path to both the folder they are located and to one folder above where they are located, just in case.
The readme file of qtscripgenerator says:
"To use the plugins in your application, add the plugins path to the library paths
(QCoreApplication::setLibraryPaths()), then call QScriptEngine::importExtension()
(plugin keys are "qt.core", "qt.gui", etc)."

Yes, but it depends what you put in "path_toplugins". It should be the directory containing a subdirectory called "script" that contains the extensions. In other words you need to copy the extensions to $QTDIR/plugins/script where $QTDIR stands for your Qt installation directory.

I have done that, ensured that they are in a subdirectory with name "script". The files I have in the script folder are:

libqtscript_cored.a
libqtscript_guid.a
libqtscript_networkd.a
libqtscript_opengld.a
libqtscript_sqld.a
libqtscript_svgd.a
libqtscript_uitoolsd.a
libqtscript_xmld.a
libqtscript_xmlpatternsd.a
qtscript_cored.dll
qtscript_guid.dll
qtscript_networkd.dll
qtscript_opengld.dll
qtscript_sqld.dll
qtscript_svgd.dll
qtscript_uitoolsd.dll
qtscript_xmld.dll
qtscript_xmlpatternsd.dll


Are these maybe debug libraries?
Could there be an issue with mixing of release/debug libraries?
My app is compiled with CONFIG += qt release warn_on
I have compiled qtscriptgenerator as specified in the readme file, maybe I need to change something in the .pro files there to be release

[wysota]

Yes, they are debug libraries and will work only in debug mode.

Yes, they are debug libraries and will work only in debug mode.

Thanks for helping, it worked now! Had to change debug_and_release to release in some .pro files in qtscriptgenerator
