I finally convinced myself to try installing QT, despite the massive
size, and the huge amount of files that seem mre than just a runtime
(designer.exe surely is not needed to run lazarus?)
So I got qt 4-6-2 installed from qt-win-opensource-4.6.2-vs2008
this is wrong -> qt-win-opensource-4.6.2-vs2008
This is correct one:
http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-win-opensource-4.6.2-mingw.exe
That was what I did fear the answer would be.....
How does a none tech person use QT on Windows, then => because the above
installation asks you where youre mingw installation is => So in order
to use QT, you must first install mingw by hand too.....
no, it's included in package.
Not here, that was what made me wonder (it definetly has the size, as if
it would include them)
My whole story (or most parts of it)
I downloded the qt-win-opensource-4.6.2-mingw.exe
=> it ask me where my mingw is, because it needs gcc => it refuses to
install without
So I try the other one, and it installs, but lazarus doesn't start
Now I have f9inally submitted to do, what I wanted to avoid:
- I installed the whole qt IDE
=> deleted 99% of what it installed
=> cleaned the mess from my start-menu
=> and it works
Well actually, it almost worked:
=> I got a range check error, because by default I build my lazarus
whith range checks, and other checks.
So I needed to recompile again, without range-checks and now it works
And all, only so I can test occasionally that my changes to synedit,
work on other platforms too....
and for some reason, all the stacktrace I can get is:
[FORMS.PP] ExceptionOccurred
Sender=ERangeError
Exception=Range check error
Stack trace:
$005F6691 line 13869 of qt45.pas
$10109781
and lots of addresses without any line info
yes there is the QT-IDE-full-development environment, which supposedly
contains all of it => but a none tech (or none developer) would not need
to install a full IDE, just to use an app that needs QT?
So (putting aside that I want to use Lazarus, and I am a developer), If
I wasn't ... => it would be trouble to use anything that is based on
QT... => that can't possible be.
so where is the point I am missing?
there's no missed point. Qt is missing dll only packages :)
So we can ask nokia to allow us to pack dll pack, then there will not be
problem.
Great, I am not the only one...
