Hi,
I would like to determine in my application, if it was started through
Qt Creator.
My code should behave slightly different between running from Qt-Creator
(error handling) or started directly from a terminal.
What is the best approach for this?
In the project settings, you can modify the environment. Choose the
"run" configuration, and just add an environment variable. Name it
whatever you want, like IN_QTCREATOR.
In your program, just use:
qEnvironmentVariableIsSet("IN_QTCREATOR");
(http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtglobal.html#qEnvironmentVariableIsSet)
to detect if the variable is set. Obviously, it only going to be set if
you run the program in Creator.
