Qwt - installation compilation and using with Qt Creator on Windows

[obquty]

Hi,
this is my first post so please be tolerance.
I read about qwt and now i have many problems to use it with Qt Creator 1.3.0 based on Qt 4.6.0 (32 bit)
I download sources from https://qwt.svn.sourceforge.net/svnr...anches/qwt-5.2
I install it to C:\qwt
QT is installed in C:\Qt\2009
I read installation tips but i have no idea what i've to do step by step.
So please help me.


Information for installation from http://qwt.sourceforge.net/qwtinstall.html

make reads project files, that contain the options and rules how to
build a certain project. A project file ends with the suffix "*.pro".
Files that end with the suffix "*.pri" are included by the project
files and contain definitions, that are common for several project files.

qwtconfig.pri is read by all project files of the Qwt package.
So the first step is to edit qwtconfig.pri to adjust it to your
needs.

First problem: I can't edit qwtconfig.pri because i don't have it.
So i go to the next step ,maby there i found answers or tips why....

C) Win32/MinGW Qt4
==================

C1) Windows Shell

Start a Windows Shell, where Qt4 is initialized. ( F.e. with
"Programs->Qt by Trolltech ...->Qt 4.x.x Command Prompt" ).

qmake qwt.pro
make

I go to folder C:\qwt
"qmake qwt.pro " works but nothing is happen.
"make " doesn't work because name "make" is not recognizable
I "googled" and i found tips that after qmake i should use on Windows mingw32-make
And now i have many errors:

C:\qwt>mingw32-make

What i do wrong,where i have right and where i make a mistake.

At the end sorry for my english. :/

First problem: I can't edit qwtconfig.pri because i don't have it.

It's part of every Qwt release. If you don't have a qwtconfig.pri file you don't have an official Qwt package.

Thank you for reply. If i don't have official package can you tell me from where i can download it and how?Please remember -i works on Windows.
Thank's from up!

[Uwe]

The link you have posted is o.k ( although it is the 5.2 bugfix branch of the source code repository and not a release ). Follow it and you see a couple of filenames - one of this is named qwtconfig.pri. So if you don't have it and if you don't know what subversion is - where did you get your package from ?

If you want to find the Qwt project page and all official releases google for Qwt and you have it in 5 seconds.

I download qwt from right link and now i have all files.
I edit qwtconfig.pri

Next i open Qt command line and type "qmake qwt.pro" (0 errors)
Next (follow instructions) "mingw32-make" (0 errors)
Next "mingw32-make install"

So it copy files to my Qt folders.
Now i open QtCreator and open one of examples. "data_pot" I run it and ....it works!
But if i open new project and include headers compilator don't see them:/
What i have to do to create new qt files where i can use qwt without any problems?
Please, if anybody now how repair this please reply.
