Windows to Linux Problem

[thehilmisu]

Hi everyone,

I have not much experience in qt, I was developing a serial port terminal then i came acroos with this

example code. it works perfect in windows, but i have to use it in
linux. when i tried to build this code in linux i get this error (without quotes) "error: cannot find -lXext"

What can i do to solve this issue?

Thanks in advance.

looks like u have to install libxext-dev in you system. try installing it using
sudo apt-get install libxext-dev (on ubuntu)

@nish thanks, it works. But i have one more question. I confused with the example code. I tried to understand how the code understands the operating system and select the right classes for serial port.

If you have chance to look at the code, can you give me hint about that
