Qt Internationalized I18n Hello World Example Demo Project

Internationalization with Qt Step by Step Another spin on almost identical example identifies how the translation is added to the pool.
Qt I18n hello world demo
[solved] Problem with the Hello tr() Example – translation does not show up – The .qm file has to be in the same folder as the .exe file. A set of build directories were made where the target .exe was placed unknown to me. I only had the .qm file in the source directory. Thus the latin version did not show up at first. I think this was due to the file pathes I accepted without looking at closely enough under Qt Creator.

Computing

QUCSEdit stand alone compile errors

Appears to be 2 types of errors

Errors due to class changes going from Qt3 to Qt4 – These could probably be addressed with correct switch to include q3support library that is included with Qt4. I copied the q3textstream.h to the working directory to get around referencing error. By not setting this I am forcing all the references not compatible with Qt4 to surface.
Errors due to the translation files not being available for access

Migration Qt3 to Qt4: They changed the name of class members that APPEAR to do the same thing.

homeDirPath becomes: homePath
setName becomes setFileName
QString::stripWhiteSpace() becomes QString::Trimmed()
QLocale class may have to be used to replace QTextCodec::locale … see QLocale::languageToString
char QChar::latin1 () const Use toLatin1() instead.
QApplication::setMainWidget goes away?

Qt & NetBeans on Linux: Install and Test

How to? Why to?

Sequence: A simple project to test Netbeans setup / build

Install the Gnu build system
Test Gnu build system with a simple helloworld C++ program
Install the Qt libraries you want to use.
Test the Qt libraries with another small test program that utilizes the Qt libraries
Appears according to various locations that Sun / Oracle NetBeans Java JDK etc are not available in the package repositories. I downloaded the everything pack from Oracle directly. Download here.
Create a program per normal NetBeans with Qt procedure.

The entire batch of settings appeared to set themselves automatically in netbeans. I assume this is because of setting all the path variables to get Qt to work under command line interface builds.

The only snag I hit was when I tried to run the first test program it reported: "App does not exist or is not an executable." I must have goofed a setting – when first installed netbeans I thought I had to specify where the Qt libraries were. This was not necessary.

As per this page I started from scratch with another test project and everything worked.

A more complex import to netbeans: Chapter 4 of Qt3 book source code SpreadSheet Example

NetBeans Problem: App does not exist or is not an executable

To see where the target is placed in a netbeans project started from scratch: right click project in the NetBeans object browser > properties > packaging > packaging files >
When a netbeans project is generated from scratch it puts the compiled target in a subfolder:= dist/Debug/GNU-Linux=x86/ProjectName/${OUTPUT_PATH} ….. I think ${OUTPUT_PATH} ="" in the default.
The reason for App does not exist or is not an executable is because my first attempt at an imported project put the compiled target in the top folder which has the name = ProjectName instead of the subfolder dist/Debug/GNU-Linux=x86/ProjectName/ which NetBeans expects to see. It got placed there when I use gcc from command line interface.
This is due to the make file being made by the command line method giving no target folder. Everything was made and placed in the top folder.
To avoid App does not exist or is not an executable make a dummy new project of the same name. It will come up with only main.cpp in it. Build this project and Netbeans and company will create the standard directory structure. Then replace it with the main.cpp from the project you are importing.
Status at this point: I get the following error. It is forcing me to learn more about make files.

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/freemonsandlewould/NetBeansProjects/QtApplication_3'
/usr/bin/qmake VPATH=. -o qttmp-Debug.mk nbproject/qt-Debug.pro
mv -f qttmp-Debug.mk nbproject/qt-Debug.mk
"/usr/bin/make" -f nbproject/qt-Debug.mk dist/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/QtApplication_3
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/freemonsandlewould/NetBeansProjects/QtApplication_3'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `gotocelldialog.h', needed by `dist/Debug/GNU-Linux-x86/QtApplication_3'. Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/freemonsandlewould/NetBeansProjects/QtApplication_3'
make[1]: *** [.build-conf] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/freemonsandlewould/NetBeansProjects/QtApplication_3'
make: *** [.build-impl] Error 2

From the GNU make manual:

‘No rule to make target `xxx'.’
‘No rule to make target `xxx', needed by `yyy'.’
This means that make decided it needed to build a target, but then couldn't find any instructions in the makefile on how to do that, either explicit or implicit (including in the default rules database).

If you want that file to be built, you will need to add a rule to your makefile describing how that target can be built. Other possible sources of this problem are typos in the makefile (if that filename is wrong) or a corrupted source tree (if that file is not supposed to be built, but rather only a prerequisite).

NetBeans: New Project > C++ project with existing source

At this point I encountered this page: NetBeans with Qt3 I did the project import using the existing SpreadSheet project that I had previously successfully built using command line interface. It successfully built under NetBeans direction. It is important that I built successfully previously as Netbeans used all that was in place as was. This is because it uses the make file. I doubt qmake -project or qmake will will be called to update the .pro or make file if something requiring it occurs.
SpreadSheet example project code here

Qt Build File Generation Study

qmake -project generates the .pro project file
qmake generates the makefile for the gcc compiler. Statements invoking the MOC meta object compiler are added to the make file.
make does what a standard make step does using the Makefile. Includes the MOC invocations. Generates: moc_FileName FileName.o links and makes the executable

How would .pro and make file be updated under netbeans when needed?

German

Video: Music: German: Die Arzte: Breit

Früher waren wir vollkommen unentspannt
Gute Laune war uns damals völlig unbekannt
Doch dann kam Bernd mit dem Zeugs vorbei
Aufregend und nicht jugendfrei
Beim ersten Mal hats nicht geschmeckt
Doch schon bald haben wir dann Blut geleckt

Seitdem sind wir breit – und die Welt sieht für uns jetzt viel bunter aus
So breit – so froh, uns hängt die Zunge zum Halse raus
Wir brauchen jeden Tag mehr und sind nur noch dem Stoff hinterher
Für immer breit
Für immer breit

Ich gebe zu, früher warn wir eher peinlich
Heute sind wir so cool, es ist fast schon unheimlich
Wir tragen am Morgen schon Sonnenbrillen
Und ernähren uns von den kleinen Pillen
Wenn du jetzt fragst, wie das denn geht
Dann sag ich: Beschaffungskriminalität

Wir sind nur noch breit – ich sag dir, du weißt nicht, was du verpasst
Breit – wenn du noch nie Drogen genommen hast
Weg mit dem alten Gehirn – du solltest es auch mal probiern
Für immer breit
Für immer breit

Jetzt bin ich schon fast dreißig und lebe noch immer
Bin auch noch immer der Coolste hier in diesem Zimmer
Ich sabbere ein bisschen und rieche streng
Weil ich seit Jahren hier auf der Couch abhäng
Soziale Kontakte brauch ich nicht
Ich bin sieben Tage die Woche dicht

Ich bin nur noch breit – ich grinse nur den ganzen Tag in mich rein
So breit – ich möchte wirklich nie wieder nüchtern sein
Die Tapete ist dermaßen schön, ich will gar nichts andres mehr sehn
Für immer breit
Für immer breit
