Designer of QtCreator 2.5.2

[giorgik]

Hello everyone, I noticed that in Qt Creator 2.5.2 when you start the designer widgets are much less than those found in Qt Designer 4.8.2. Can you explain me how to appear in designer Qt Creator 2.5.2 new widgets in Qt 4.8.2 (for example customwidget analog clock) ?
Using Windows XP and the compiler MinGW 4.4.

Santosh Reddy, thanks for the advice, but it is already defined by default all expanded. No, the real problem is that the two versions of designer (that of Qt 4.8.2 and QtCreator 2.5.2) are different because in the first case I have more widgets than the second case. So my question is: how can I get the other widgets in the designer incorporated in the QtCreator IDE 2.5.2 ?

Ok, I understand what you are looking for. It is not possible straight away, you will need to either recompile Qt Creator or Qt Lib from source again.

Read documentation for details here

Ok thanks for the link. What is the link to download SDK opensource version last update ?
I noticed that with Qt 4.8.3 does not work RCC the resource compiler, when used with Qt Creator 2.5.2 and 2.6.0. I can not even compile the source of Qt Creator 2.5.2 or 2.6.0, just because it gives me error RCC file not found (the problem is therefore of Qt 4.8.3). If I use Qt Creator 2.5.2 and Qt 4.8.2 everything is fine, but if you use Qt 4.8.3 I get the error I wrote

regarding the resource compiler RCC the error message is as follows:

bin\rcc.exe -name simulatore-IA simulatore-IA.qrc -o release\qrc_simulatore-IA.cpp
mingw32-make[1]: Leaving directory `C:/Qt/progetti/simulatore-IA'
process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, bin\rcc.exe -name simulatore-IA simulatore-IA.qrc -o release\qrc_simulatore-IA.cpp, ...) failed.

did not create the compiled file qrc_simulatore_IA.cpp. why?

I solved the installation of QtCreator 2.6.0 with Qt 4.8.3 (I downloaded the correct executable, downloaded the first did not work).

Found the solution:
1) open the qmake.conf of your platform (for me its C:\Qt\4.8.3\mkspecs\win32-g++)

2) search for QMAKE_IDC

3) add the following line after the QMAKE_IDC line:

QMAKE_RCC = $$[QT_INSTALL_BINS]$${DIR_SEPARATOR}rcc.exe

4) save file and close

5) restart all your dev tools and remove all auto generated Makefiles

6) recompile
