I am re-engineering an aspect of current existing software in C++ that uses Qt 5.6. I am trying to create a bar chart that can represent the data stored in a table of int(s).
I used the Qt example in my code for a bar chart:
Includes:
#include <QChart>
#include <QBarSet>
#include <QBarSeries>
I attempted to put the includes in the .cpp file however for some reason the classes were not recognized unless they were forward declared so I moved the includes to the header file such that:
#include <QChart>
#include <QBarSet>
#include <QBarSeries>
class QChart;
class QBarSet;
class QBarSeries;
Code:
QBarSet *mainSet = new QBarSet("Data");
.
.
.
(I'll leave the rest of the code out since it really isn't important for the answer)
With the above code (new QBarSet("Data")) QBarSet is underlined in red in visual studio stating "incomplete type is not allowed".
I figure the issue is due to the fact I am trying to use Qt 5.6 for the graphs so I refereed to their website.
From Qt's Qt Charts 2.1.0 website:
In Qt 5.6 release the module binaries will still be available only
with the commercial packages.
That is where I am stuck.
Anyone know my issue or how I can get Qt bar charts for qt 5.6 (if possible)?
Found this resource:
https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qtcharts-index.html
Stupid mistake, I was importing the wrong files. I removed all the includes that I had in my header file and put the following and it worked fine.
Header:
#include <QtCharts>
using namespace QtCharts;
Source:
QBarSet *mainSet = new QBarSet("Data");
.

I'm trying to get phonon4qt5 to work with QT5 but I'm getting:
WARNING: bool Phonon::FactoryPrivate::createBackend() phonon backend plugin could not be loaded
WARNING: Phonon::createPath: Cannot connect Phonon::MediaObject ( no objectName ) to Phonon::AudioOutput ( no objectName ).
I've installed all the phonon related packages with apt.
I've added phonon4qt5 to my QT += in the .pro and LIBS += -L/home/fred/phonon-4.8.3/build5/phonon -lphonon4qt5 (tried several paths I found on my system)
And I've included these in my header:
#include <phonon4qt5/phonon/AudioDataOutput>
#include <phonon4qt5/phonon/AudioOutput>
#include <phonon4qt5/phonon/MediaObject>
#include <phonon4qt5/phonon/SeekSlider>
#include <phonon4qt5/phonon/VolumeSlider>
#include <phonon4qt5/phonon/AudioOutput>
Can someone point me to the correct direction?
(please don't suggest to use QMultimedia, since that's what I'm trying to get away from since there is no way to get the intensity of the sound output being played (in order to build a VU Meter..))
On the .cpp side I'm just doing:
Phonon::MediaObject *music =
Phonon::createPlayer(Phonon::MusicCategory,
Phonon::MediaSource("/home/fred/cpp/config/rol1.ogg"));
music->play();
Thank you for all your time and attention :-)
Best regards.
Fred.
I am new to opencv and am using OpenCV 3.0.0. I found an example using include "cvaux.h". But, I want to use the new features rather than old C functions.
So, what is the equivalent hpp file for "cvaux.h"? Thanks
If your example is actually using cvaux.h, then you probably need to get a newer example. cvaux is related to obsolete C api and is now deprecated.
However, it can be found in: #include <opencv/cvaux.h>.
Note that most of the time you can just use the "include all" header: #include <opencv2/opencv.hpp>
I'm trying to embed scene created with Visualization ToolKit (VTK)library into VisualC++ 2012 created windows form so I can design my Windows native GUI interface.
I'd like to underline that, all examples with console app are configured with (Cmake), compiled with VC++2012 and works flawlessly, as instructed by the official VTK wiki page.
The issue is, if I try to call those VTK functions and class initializations inside of Win Form application I get the Error LNK1107: invalid or corrupt file: cannot read at 0x2E0 D:\.....\VTK_61_BUILD_VS2012\bin\Debug\vtkViewsCore-6.1.dll even if I add everything normally as expected, include headers and external library dependencies.
This makes me think that I'm originating from wrong Visual C++ 2012 project template or something obvious that I'm completely missing, otherwise compiler would arise many not found files or syntax error.
This is the first lines where I'm trying to invoke the VTK library, even the intellisense suggest the vtk..... named proc,functions and structures, but application fails to compile.
#pragma once
#include <vtkSmartPointer.h>
#include <vtkTriangle.h>
#include <vtkCellArray.h>
#include <vtkPolyData.h>
#include <vtkRenderWindow.h>
namespace CLR_Project1 {
using namespace System;
using namespace System::ComponentModel;
using namespace System::Collections;
using namespace System::Windows::Forms;
using namespace System::Data;
using namespace System::Drawing;
...
...
vtkSmartPointer<vtkPoints> points = vtkSmartPointer<vtkPoints>::New();
What is the problem here ?
The following link (in particular the answer of Mr. bnsteel) helped me very much, when I had the same problem ==>
http://vtk.1045678.n5.nabble.com/VTK-and-Winforms-integration-td5721086.html
You can use Swig as it is suggested under the link. But it is not necessary. Using the similar way (passing the windows form panel handle) you can create a C++/CLI wrapper as jalal sadeghi proposed. You will pass the panel handle through the wrapper to your C++ library that does all the "VTK work". This way you don't have to create individual wrappers for all VTK classes, all the "VTK work" and dependencies on VTK stay hidden in your C++ layer.
Something like this ==>
C++ side
setImageRenderWindowParentID(void *theID){
... (init your vtk render window)
renWin->SetParentId(theID);
}
C++/CLI side
void setRenderWindowParentID(IntPtr parentID, .. also pass the panel size .. ){
void* p = parentID.ToPointer();
myCPPVTK->setRenderWindowParentID(p, .. also pass the panel size ..);
}
C# side
VTKWrapper.setRenderWindowParentID(m_panel.Handle, .. also pass the panel size ..);
I'm using Qt creator and the yaml-cpp library. I placed yaml-cpp under my source code directory and added it to the Qt project's include path like so:
INCLUDEPATH += Crypto \
Yaml
QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=gnu++0x
DEFINES += __GXX_EXPERIMENTAL_CXX0X__
As you can see, I also told it to use C++ 11 because that is a requirement of this library. However, I get this error on compiling my project (this is the only error):
../ProjectName/Yaml/yaml-cpp/node/ptr.h:11:10: fatal error: 'boost/shared_ptr.hpp' file not found
#include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp>
^
I also tried, at the advice of some online resources, to replace it with #include <memory>, but this does not work. When I try this, it still cannot find shared_ptr.
I probably could compile the library and link Qt creator to it, but I would have to do this on every platform I use and on every machine that every project developer uses. It seems like a more elegant solution to put the source code inside my GitHub directory and compile it along with the project to minimize the overhead of someone compiling the project on their machine, particularly since this is an open source project.
Here is the source code of Yaml-Cpp's file in question:
#include "yaml-cpp/dll.h"
#include <boost/shared_ptr.hpp>
namespace YAML
{
namespace detail {
class node;
class node_ref;
class node_data;
class memory;
class memory_holder;
typedef boost::shared_ptr<node> shared_node;
typedef boost::shared_ptr<node_ref> shared_node_ref;
typedef boost::shared_ptr<node_data> shared_node_data;
typedef boost::shared_ptr<memory_holder> shared_memory_holder;
typedef boost::shared_ptr<memory> shared_memory;
}
}
It seems that you do not have boost installed. You would need to amend that first.
However, you could urge the yaml-cop developers to use the recent C++ standard more and more when their software is built using C++11 or later. C++11 is not a new thing anymore. It should be utilized as much as possible.
I have QT 5.1.1 installed on my machine, but I'm having some troubles using it. I'm trying to run the following simple program that requires QT:
//Playing Video
#include "cv.h"
#include "opencv2\objdetect\objdetect.hpp"
#include "opencv2\core\core.hpp"
#include "opencv2\highgui\highgui.hpp"
#include "opencv2\features2d\features2d.hpp"
#include "opencv2\calib3d\calib3d.hpp"
#include "opencv2\nonfree\nonfree.hpp"
#include "highgui.h"
#include <openbr\openbr_plugin.h>
using namespace cv;
static void printTemplate(const br::Template &t)
{
const QPoint firstEye = t.file.get<QPoint>("Affine_0");
const QPoint secondEye = t.file.get<QPoint>("Affine_1");
printf("%s eyes: (%d, %d) (%d, %d)\n", qPrintable(t.file.fileName()), firstEye.x(), firstEye.y(), secondEye.x(), secondEye.y());
}
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
br::Context::initialize(argc, argv);
// Retrieve classes for enrolling and comparing templates using the FaceRecognition algorithm
QSharedPointer<br::Transform> transform = br::Transform::fromAlgorithm("FaceRecognition");
QSharedPointer<br::Distance> distance = br::Distance::fromAlgorithm("FaceRecognition");
// Initialize templates
br::Template queryA("../data/MEDS/img/S354-01-t10_01.jpg");
br::Template queryB("../data/MEDS/img/S382-08-t10_01.jpg");
br::Template target("../data/MEDS/img/S354-02-t10_01.jpg");
// Enroll templates
queryA >> *transform;
queryB >> *transform;
target >> *transform;
printTemplate(queryA);
printTemplate(queryB);
printTemplate(target);
// Compare templates
float comparisonA = distance->compare(target, queryA);
float comparisonB = distance->compare(target, queryB);
// Scores range from 0 to 1 and represent match probability
printf("Genuine match score: %.3f\n", comparisonA);
printf("Impostor match score: %.3f\n", comparisonB);
br::Context::finalize();
return 0;
}
It also requires OpenCV 2.4.6.1 and OpenBR, but that's not the problem.
All the definitions (variables and functions) in the above code that are related to QT are undefined. I've tried to find the relevant h files in QT folder and to include them, but that did not succeed since I couldn't fine qtcore.h (but a different file named qtcore with lot's of includes that I don't now how to use). I've tried to add QT "include" directory under "additional include directories" in the project properties but that didn't work either. I've also tried to add QT "lib" folder under "additional library directories" but that also did not work.
Basically, I tried everything I could think of. Can someone please explain how to I use those QT definitions? I'm really stuck and I could use any help given.
Thanks,
Gil.
(Optional) Update to Qt 5.2.
Start Qt Creator.
Create a new Qt Widgets Application project. You can give the class/files random names, it doesn't matter. Uncheck the "generate form" option, as you don't need any forms.
Remove all the files other than main.cpp from the project. You do this by right-clicking on them in the project tree on the left and choosing Remove File.
Copy-paste your code into main cpp. Make sure you completely replace main.cpp's contents, the default contents shouldn't be there anymore.
Add the opencv library to the project. Right-click on the project's root, select "Add Library", and go from there.
Re-run qmake by right-clicking on the project root and selecting "Run qmake".
Build and run the project by pressing Ctrl-R (Cmd-R on mac).
Qt uses a (non-standard) custom toolchain that has to run before the Qt-dependent code can be compiled. I've never tried using Qt outside of QtCreator, but if you really need Qt I'd suggest you use the QtCreator IDE; if you're not using it already of course. It's a very decent IDE, even for non-Qt projects.
Also, if you haven't done so already, make sure the Qt SDK is installed; the headers alone are not enough. QtCreator by itself is also not enough, you'll need the SDK. If you don't feel like doing so, my suggestion would be to look at Poco. It's not a 1:1 replacement for Qt, but a very mature framework nevertheless.
