.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
|
This page documents the
|
|
|
|
|
.B User Interface Compiler
|
|
|
|
|
for the TQt GUI toolkit. The
|
|
|
|
|
.B tquic
|
|
|
|
|
reads a user interface definition (.ui) file in XML as generated by
|
|
|
|
|
.I TQt Designer
|
|
|
|
|
and creates corresponding C++ header or source files. It also
|
|
|
|
|
generates an image file that embeds raw image data in C++ source code.

For convenience,
|
|
|
|
|
.B tquic
|
|
|
|
|
can also generate declaration or implementation stubs for subclasses.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|

|
|
Generate subclass declaration:
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
.I "\fB tquic [options] -subdecl \fI<subclassname> <baseclassheaderfile> <file>"
|
|
|

.br
|
|

\fI<subclassname>\fP: name of the subclass to generate
|
|
|
|
|
.br
|

|
\fI<baseclassheaderfile>\fP: declaration file of the baseclass
|
|
|
|

.PP
|

|
|
|

|
.br
|

.I "\fB tquic [options] -subimpl \fI<subclassname> <subclassheaderfile> <file>"
|

\fI<subclassname>\fP: name of the subclass to generate
|

.SH GENERAL OPTIONS
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.I "-o file"
|
|
|
|
|
Write output to
|
|
|
|
|
.I file
|
|
|
|
|
rather than to stdout.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.I "-nofwd"
|
|
|
|
|
Omit forward declarations of custom classes in the generated
|
|
|
|
|
header file. This is necessary if typedef classes are used.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.I "-tr func"
|
|
|
|
|
Use
|
|
|
|
|
.I func()
|
|
|
|
|
instead of tr() for internationalization.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP
|
|
|
|
|
.I "-version"
|
|
|
|
|
Display the version of
|
|
|
|
|
.B tquic
|
|
|
|
|
and exit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
.SH USAGE
|
|
|
|
|
.B tquic
|
|
|
|
|
is almost always invoked by
|
|
|
|
|
.BR make (1),
|
|
|
|
|
rather than by hand.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
Here are useful makefile rules if you only use GNU make:
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
.in +4
|
|
|
|
|
%.h: %.ui
|
|
|
|
|
.br
|
|
|
|
|
tquic $< -o $@
|
|
|
|
|
.br
|
|
|
|
|
%.cpp: %.ui
|
|
|
|
|
.br
|
|
|
|
|
tquic -impl $*.h $< -o $@
|
|
|
|
|
.in -4
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
If you want to write portably, you can use individual rules of the
|
|
|
|
|
following form:
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
.in +4
|
|
|
|
|
NAME.h: NAME.ui
|
|
|
|
|
.br
|
|
|
|
|
tquic $< -o $@
|
|
|
|
|
.br
|
|
|
|
|
NAME.cpp: NAME.ui
|
|
|
|
|
.br
|
|
|
|
|
tquic -impl $*.h $< -o $@
|
|
|
|
|
.in -4
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
You must also remember to add
|
|
|
|
|
.I NAME.cpp
|
|
|
|
|
to your SOURCES (substitute your favorite name) variable and
|
|
|
|
|
.I NAME.o
|
|
|
|
|
to your OBJECTS variable.
|
|
|
|
|
.PP
|
|
|
|
|
(While we prefer to name our C++ source files .cpp, the
|
|
|
|
|
.B tquic
|
|
|
|
|
doesn't care, so you can use .C, .cc, .CC, .cxx or even .c++ if
|
|
|
|
|
you prefer.)
