I am running Octave under windows. I found your GitHub repository for qthandles. Is there an equivalent set of instructions for installation under the windows versions of Octave? I have used the mingw and visualstudio versions of Octave in the past. If I remember correctly you are maintaining the visualstudio version of Octave.

 

Yes.

 

The current version of QtHandles in github doesn't compile with octave-3.6.x, it only compiles with current development branch. An older version of QtHandles is included in octave-3.6.2 for Visual Studio. More recently, I posted binaries for 3.7.2+, but I can't remember whether I included QtHandles in it; though I would say I didn't.

 

One possibility would be to use the 3.7.2+ binaries, then compile QtHandles from sources using current github version, but that's not trivial (you need to install visual studio and Qt, first). It's possible, though, as I helper someone else to do it a few weeks/months ago.

 

Alternatively, you could compile octave from default branch with MinGW, using MXE. Then you should be able to compile QtHandles with MinGW as well.

 

Michael.

 

I use Visual Studio regularly so perhaps that would be the approach to use. I guess I would install QT 5.1.1.   I also found your 3.7.2+ binaries.  Quickly reading a couple of threads on 3.7.2 indicated there might be an issue with the IO package?

 

IIRC the problem was actually with the windows package. I've produced an update for that one, available at:

 

 

Are there a set of steps I can follow to compile up QTHandles?

 

Note that I've only tested QtHandles with Qt4. I will probably not compile out of the box with Qt5 (headers are different). Otherwise, the process is to use qmake and nmake. However this must be done from a terminal (or command prompt) where visual studio is properly configured and available, and octave is your PATH. What I usually do is to use a MSYS terminal, where visual studio is available: to achieve this, I hacked msys.bat to call vcvarsall.bat before starting bash. Then I compile QtHandles with:

 

PATH=/where/octave/is/installed/bin:$PATH qmake -recursive

nmake

 

I hope the above doesn't sound like Greek to you, otherwise you'll have a hard time trying to compile QtHandles :).

 

Michael.

 

I guess I don’t know greek as well as I thought <grin>.

 

I was able to run qmake to build the makefiles. Unfortuantely I get a whole bunch or errors when I run nmake.

 

I think my path is correct

Here is the list of errors when running nmake? Any thoughts on what I am doing wrong?

 

C:\Users\u02304>qmake

'qmake' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

operable program or batch file.

 

C:\Users\u02304>path=%path%;C:\Qt\4.8.5\bin

 

C:\Users\u02304>qmake

Usage: qmake [mode] [options] [files]

 

QMake has two modes, one mode for generating project files based on

some heuristics, and the other for generating makefiles. Normally you

shouldn't need to specify a mode, as makefile generation is the default

mode for qmake, but you may use this to test qmake on an existing project

 

Mode:

  -project       Put qmake into project file generation mode

                 In this mode qmake interprets files as files to

                 be built,

                 defaults to *.c; *.ui; *.y; *.l; *.ts; *.xlf; *.qrc; *.h; *.hpp

; *.hh; *.hxx; *.cpp; *.cc; *.cxx

                 Note: The created .pro file probably will

                 need to be edited. For example add the QT variable to

                 specify what modules are required.

  -makefile      Put qmake into makefile generation mode (default)

                 In this mode qmake interprets files as project files to

                 be processed, if skipped qmake will try to find a project

                 file in your current working directory

 

Warnings Options:

  -Wnone         Turn off all warnings; specific ones may be re-enabled by

                 later -W options

  -Wall          Turn on all warnings

  -Wparser       Turn on parser warnings

  -Wlogic        Turn on logic warnings (on by default)

  -Wdeprecated   Turn on deprecation warnings (on by default)

 

Options:

   * You can place any variable assignment in options and it will be     *

   * processed as if it was in [files]. These assignments will be parsed *

   * before [files].                                                     *

  -o file        Write output to file

  -d             Increase debug level

  -t templ       Overrides TEMPLATE as templ

  -tp prefix     Overrides TEMPLATE so that prefix is prefixed into the value

  -help          This help

  -v             Version information

  -after         All variable assignments after this will be

                 parsed after [files]

  -norecursive   Don't do a recursive search

  -recursive     Do a recursive search

  -set <prop> <value> Set persistent property

  -unset <prop>  Unset persistent property

  -query <prop>  Query persistent property. Show all if <prop> is empty.

  -cache file    Use file as cache           [makefile mode only]

  -spec spec     Use spec as QMAKESPEC       [makefile mode only]

  -nocache       Don't use a cache file      [makefile mode only]

  -nodepend      Don't generate dependencies [makefile mode only]

  -nomoc         Don't generate moc targets  [makefile mode only]

  -nopwd         Don't look for files in pwd [project mode only]

Looks like you're using Visual Studio 6 (note the "VC98" in the path above). You need to use the same version as was used to compile octave, that is Visual Studio 2010 (I'm using the express edition).
