How do I develop new features for CAMotics?

[badrik91]

I have a doubt ,how to add function and implement it by using Qt creator because you later told that we could not build in Qt.so this happens only on scons command tool ? or build on Qt also.

It depends on what OS you are using. Linux is the easiest for development. It's also possible on macOS and Windows. Here are instructions for building on Windows: https://github.com/CauldronDevelopmentLLC/CAMotics/blob/master/doc/Windows_Build.md and for Linux: https://github.com/CauldronDevelopmentLLC/CAMotics#building-from-source

Hello Sir, I build this project using scon and its build sucessfully but when i add the event in menubar of ui part but not build in qt so i compiled using scon works fine but how to debug this code so i test this event? Please give solution about this .

[jcoffland]

I don't know. I only use Qt Creator for UI design. I connect my events in C++ code. Or with moc which scons runs for me.

Maybe if you tell me what you are trying to do I can help.

I want to insert one menu item like print in file menubar .whenever i clicked on print menu that call the exe .thats the exactly i want to do.Are you getting my point? Please give soluition if possible.

[jcoffland]

You should look at examples in the code. There are lots of places where menu item events are used. For example, https://github.com/CauldronDevelopmentLLC/CAMotics/blob/master/src/camotics/qt/QtWin.cpp#L1938

[badrik91]

I already add menu in this file and its header.but i don't debug this menu because not build this in qt .so I compile this through scon and everything comes right but when i clicked the menu that does not work properly so i want to check this event that resolves when i debug the code.Is there any tool to debug the UI backed code?

[jcoffland]

printf() or gdb.

[badrik91]

Printf do print the message.gdb not use for me because i want to do in windows.Is it possible to build in Qt for debugging ? or Any another way to check ui event?

[jcoffland]

I don't know. I develop in Linux.

[badrik91]

In Linux, Are you used Qt for UI design?and build sucessfully on QT ? or used scons for that. I have sucessfully build this in linux using scon but not in QT.How to configure and build project in qt ? Please give solution if possible

[jcoffland]

I use Qt for UI design only. Then I build with scons.

[badrik91]

Are you sucessfully build in QT?If i sucessfully build in QT then I can modify and check event .can you give solution about to build in qt?

[jcoffland]

No.
