| 37 | <p> This page documents the <em>User Interface Compiler</em> for the Qt GUI
|
|---|
| 38 | toolkit. The <em>uic</em> reads a user interface definition
|
|---|
| 39 | (.ui) file in XML as generated by <a href="designer-manual.html">Qt
|
|---|
| 40 | Designer</a> and creates corresponding C++ header or source files.
|
|---|
| 41 | It can also generate an image file to embed raw image data in C++
|
|---|
| 42 | source code.
|

|

| 45 | <a name="1"></a><p> <h3> File Generation Options
|
|---|
| 46 | </h3>
|
|---|
| 47 | <a name="1-1"></a><p> Generate declaration:
|
|---|
| 48 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 49 | uic [options] <file>
|
|---|
| 50 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 51 |
|

| 52 | <p> Generate implementation:
|

| 53 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 54 | uic [options] -impl <headerfile> <file>
|
|---|
| 55 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 56 |
|
|---|
| 57 | <ul>
|
|---|
| 58 | <li> <headerfile> - name of the declaration file
|
|---|
| 59 | </ul>
|
|---|
| 60 | <p> Generate image collection:
|
|---|
| 61 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 62 | uic [options] -embed <project> <image1> <image2> <image3> ...
|
|---|
| 63 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 64 |
|
|---|
| 65 | <ul>
|
|---|
| 66 | <li> <project> - project name
|
|---|
| 67 | <li> <image[0..n]> - image files
|
|---|
| 68 | </ul>
|
|---|
| 69 | <p> For convenience, <em>uic</em> can also generate declaration or
|
|---|
| 70 | implementation stubs for subclasses.
|
|---|
| 71 | <p> Generate subclass declaration:
|
|---|
| 72 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 73 | uic [options] -subdecl <classname> <headerfile> <file>
|
|---|
| 74 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 75 |
|
|---|
| 76 | <ul>
|
|---|
| 77 | <li> <classname> - name of the subclass to generate
|
|---|
| 78 | <li> <headerfile> - declaration file of the <b>baseclass</b>
|
|---|
| 79 | </ul>
|
|---|
| 80 | <p> Generate subclass implementation:
|
|---|
| 81 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 82 | uic [options] -subimpl <classname> <headerfile> <file>
|
|---|
| 83 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 84 |
|
|---|
| 85 | <ul>
|
|---|
| 86 | <li> <classname> - name of the subclass to generate
|
|---|
| 87 | <li> <headerfile> - declaration file of the <b>subclass</b>
|
|---|
| 88 | </ul>
|
|---|
| 89 | <p> <h3> General Options
|
|---|
| 90 | </h3>
|
|---|
| 91 | <a name="1-2"></a><p> <ul>
|
|---|
| 92 | <li> <tt>-o file</tt> - write output to 'file' rather than to stdout.
|
|---|
| 93 | <li> <tt>-nofwd</tt> - omit forward declarations of custom classes in the
|
|---|
| 94 | generated header file. This is necessary if typedef classes are used.
|
|---|
| 95 | <li> <tt>-tr func</tt> - use <tt>func(sourceText, comment)</tt> rather than
|
|---|
| 96 | trUtf8(sourceText, comment) for <a href="i18n.html#internationalization">internationalization</a>.
|
|---|
| 97 | <li> <tt>-pch file</tt> - add <tt>#include "file"</tt> as the first statement in the implementation file.
|
|---|
| 98 | </ul>
|
|---|
| 99 | <p> <h2> Usage
|
|---|
| 100 | </h2>
|
|---|
| 101 | <a name="2"></a><p> <em>uic</em> is almost always invoked by <tt>make (1)</tt>, rather than by hand.
|
|---|
| 102 | <p> Here are useful makefile rules if you only use GNU make:
|
|---|
| 103 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 104 | %.h: %.ui
|
|---|
| 105 | uic $< -o $@
|
|---|
| 106 |
|
|---|
| 107 | %.cpp: %.ui
|
|---|
| 108 | uic -impl $*.h $< -o $@
|
|---|
| 109 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 110 |
|
|---|
| 111 | If you want to write portably, you can use individual rules of the
|
|---|
| 112 | following form:
|
|---|
| 113 | <pre>
|
|---|
| 114 | NAME.h: NAME.ui
|
|---|
| 115 | uic $< -o $@
|
|---|
| 116 |
|
|---|
| 117 | NAME.cpp: NAME.ui
|
|---|
| 118 | uic -impl $*.h $< -o $@
|
|---|
| 119 | </pre>
|
|---|
| 120 |
|
|---|
| 121 | You must also remember to add <tt>NAME.cpp</tt> to your SOURCES (substitute
|
|---|
| 122 | your favorite name) variable and <tt>NAME.o</tt> to your OBJECTS variable.
|
|---|
| 123 | <p> (While we prefer to name our C++ source files .cpp, the <em>uic</em> doesn't
|
|---|
| 124 | care, so you can use .C, .cc, .CC, .cxx or even .c++ if you prefer.)
