Problem of including Widgets into DLL

[janEUcitzen]

I always make the dll's with one interface class.

e.g.

dll_mywidget.hpp
dll_mywidget.cpp

the class dll_mywidget are just call to another class dll_mywidget_impl

The dll_mywidget_impl class is the one that include the ui file...basically you make dll_mywidget_impl as you would make a normal widget....

and in dll_mywidget.cpp you decide which parts to make public in the dll...dont forget the class you want to make public in the dll, needs special DLL declaration (DLL_EXPORT) in order to work.

LOL I still don't get it. I think the way I understand it is that I have a dummy class which gets included into the main application and it exports other class with UI. But how do I include the base class into main application without ui header?

So far I have this:

Here the dummy class which includes the interface class (test.h) :

#ifndef FBL_GUI_H
#define FBL_GUI_H
 
#include "fbl_gui_global.h"
#include "test.h"
class FBL_GUI_EXPORT fbl_gui
{
public:
	fbl_gui();
	~fbl_gui();
 
private:
 
};
 
#endif // FBL_GUI_H

#ifndef FBL_GUI_H
#define FBL_GUI_H

#include "fbl_gui_global.h"
#include "test.h"
class FBL_GUI_EXPORT fbl_gui
{
public:
	fbl_gui();
	~fbl_gui();

private:

};

#endif // FBL_GUI_H

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Then I have an interface class in the same dll project:

#ifndef TEST_H
#define TEST_H
 
#include <QWidget>
#include "ui_test.h"
 
class test : public QWidget
{
	Q_OBJECT
 
public:
	test(QWidget *parent = 0);
	~test();
 
private:
	Ui::testClass ui;
};
 
#endif // TEST_H

#ifndef TEST_H
#define TEST_H

#include <QWidget>
#include "ui_test.h"

class test : public QWidget
{
	Q_OBJECT

public:
	test(QWidget *parent = 0);
	~test();

private:
	Ui::testClass ui;
};

#endif // TEST_H

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Now the problem is that if I include the base dll class it also includes the widget class. How can I skip this part but be able to access the widget and be able to create it in the main app?
