New IDE features

 

Hi all,

Yesterday we have released a new version (2.8.1.1bzr69) of the QtCreator Ubuntu Plugin in the SDK PPA with the following goodies:

1. Automatic Click package validation

The core functionality is provided by the click-reviewers-tools (suggested by the ubuntu-sdk)

When new Click package is created the reviewer tool is executed and the result is shown in the Packaging tab

It is possible to run the Click reviewer tool on any package by clicking on the "Validate Click package" button in the Packaging tab.

2. cross-building of cmake projects

The function comes from click-dev an schroot packages

First go to the Tools -> Option -> Ubuntu tab. New builder chroot canb be created by clicking on the "Create Click target" button. It might take long time to download the ~1G system.

The cmake projects can be cross-builded by selecting the "Build in chroot" in the menu after right clicking on the project. The amhf binaries are created under the cmake build directory in the ubuntu-sdk-[ubuntu release]-[architecture] directory.


The automatic click packaging of the cmake projects and the proper visualization of the package validation are the next on the line. These features are on their way to land in the archives.


Feedbacks and bug reports are welcome

cheers,

Zoltan
