why linking problem with QGLWidget???

[Shuchi Agrawal]

hi all,
i have included <QGLWidget> in my program but while make, its giving a problem as :
In file included from form.h:5,
from form.cpp:2:
glwidget.h:5:21: error: QGLWidget: No such file or directory

though i have include QT += opengl in .pro file (is there any implicit way to include this using qmake???)
and all the files are there in the Qt installation directory as they are on indos too. no file is missing. all paths are set.. only the QGLWidget thing is giving problem.
Can any1 tel me that is it a diff way to do the same on linux coz the same is working properly on windows.
Thanks

try:
#include <QtOpenGL/QGLWidget>

though i have include QT += opengl in .pro file
Have you re-run qmake after modifying to .pro file? The makefiles have to be regenerated after modifying the .pro so that correct include directories and library linkings are set.

[Shuchi Agrawal]

try:
#include <QtOpenGL/QGLWidget>
this is also not working.
And J-P N, i have done "qmake" after changing .pro file n then "make".
after including #include <QtOpenGL/QGLWidget>, i m getting the error :
In file included from form.h:5,

Please see to it because i am unable to find the point where i m wrong.
Thanks

If you are using makefiles, Qt include paths should be set automatically when you install. If they are not, make sure you use the INCLUDEPATH variable within your project file, or set appropriate environment variables.

Thanks

i have done "qmake" after changing .pro file n then "make".
after including #include <QtOpenGL/QGLWidget>, i m getting the error :
Could you show the full compiler command with all the arguments?

[high_flyer]

Do you have both Qt3 and Qt4 installed?
It could be that the qmake of Qt3 is called.

[Shuchi Agrawal]

Do you have both Qt3 and Qt4 installed?
It could be that the qmake of Qt3 is called.

yes, both are installed because Qt3 came with fedora core 5 and i installed Qt4.2.2. but i want Qt4.2.2 to work in every case. how can i do that?

[high_flyer]

one quick way to fix it is to change the order of the Qt3 and Qt4 paths in your PATH variable.
Have the Qt4 path be first.
You might want to check that LD_LIBRARY_PATH knows where your Qt4 libs are.
End you should change your signature, since you are on Fedora and not XP ;)

[Shuchi Agrawal]

Could you show the full compiler command with all the arguments?

My commands are :
[application directory]#qmake -project
then i edit the .pro file and add QT += opengl
[application directory]#qmake
[application directory]#make
then i get all errors which i have mentioned.

[high_flyer]

what jpn meant is the print out of the your make file - when you run make, you see in the console the commands make is running.
We need the first command that makes runs.
it looks similar to this:


g++ -c -Wall -W -O2 -fPIC -DQT_SHARED -DQT_NO_DEBUG -DQT_NO_NIS
-DQT_NO_XINERAMA -DQT_NO_XRENDER -DQT_NO_XFTFREETYPE -DQT_NO_XKB -DQT_NO_REMOTE
-DQT_NO_IMAGEIO_MNG -DQT_NO_IMAGEIO_JPEG -DQT_NO_STYLE_AQUA -DQT_NO_STYLE_MAC
-DQT_NO_STYLE_INTERLACE -DQT_NO_STYLE_COMPACT -I3rdparty/libpng -I3rdparty/zlib
-I/usr/local/qt/include -I../../../include -I../../../include -I/usr/local/qt/mkspecs/

Also you might want to look at this: http://doc.trolltech.com/4.2/qmake-environment-reference.html

well first, you can take QtOpenGL from the include line since qmake adds it ok:

-I/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.2.2/include/QtOpenGL
If this doesn't work, it means you didn't install Qt with openGL support.
Wait a minute, is this where your Qt4 is?:

QTDIR=/root/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.2.2
QTINC=/root/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.2.2/include

[vermarajeev]

I think the problem is here..
/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.2.2/include/QtOpenGL---> compiler is serching this path
QTDIR=/root/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.2.2 ---> Qt is installed here.
QTINC=/root/qt-x11-opensource-src-4.2.2/include ---> Takes this PATH to include

I think you need to change the environment settings or uninstall and reinstall Qt again:)

hi all,
i reinstalled Qt with option -opengl but in the end of ./configure -prefix-install - opengl it gave as :

so after tht i did gmake and set QMAKESPEC
no when i try to run my same program with opengl as:
qmake -project
added QT += opengl in .pro file
qmake
make [or gmake]
its giving the error as

there is no "glu.h" file on my system

So i think that opengl is not installed. so can u help me that how can i install with opengl?
Thanks All..

it looks like you don't have opengl installed on your system.
Make sure its installed.
When you run Qt's configure script, you should read the output configure gives, you will see there if it was able to find opengl or not. (and all other dependencied)

[Shuchi Agrawal]

it looks like you don't have opengl installed on your system.
Make sure its installed.
Do i need to install opengl with Qt "qt-x11-opensource-src-4.2.2.tar.gz". i mean it doesn't come with it?

When you run Qt's configure script, you should read the output configure gives, you will see there if it was able to find opengl or not. (and all other dependencied)
where can i see this configure output file.

[high_flyer]

you can read the configure output when you call configure in your console before you compile Qt.
If you do ./configure --help, you will get a list with all options.
One of these option is -opengl or similar.

I don't know if Qt comes with its own opengl lib src. (can't remember)
At the configure help, there is a line next to some lib options that says "use system lib" or something similar, for these libs you can choose to use either a system installed lib or to compile the lib from the Qt src.
I can't remember if opengl is like that or not.
