Hello,

Sorry in advance for this stupid question but I don't know how to use Marble Library after compile it.

I follow instruction here: https://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Marbl ... sCompiling

Now, I have Marble installed on my PC (Windows 7) and marble-qt.exe works ! So now I need to use libmarblewidget-qt5 in a Qt project. For information, I work with Qt Creator (Qt 5.5). Is there something to add to PATH? And to my PRO file?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Nicolas

Hi again,

Sorry, it's a bad question. I found the answer here: https://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Marble/MarbleWindows

But now I have another problem. When I add Marble code (like Marble::MarbleWidget) my application crash with no error or with error 255.
Can you help me, please?

There is my pro file:

Code: Select all

QT       += core gui

greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets

TARGET = TestMarble
TEMPLATE = app


SOURCES += main.cpp\
        mainwindow.cpp

HEADERS  += mainwindow.h

FORMS    += mainwindow.ui

win32 {
    INCLUDEPATH += $$quote(C:\Program Files (x86)\marble\include\marble)
    LIBS += $$quote(C:\Program Files (x86)\marble\libmarblewidget-qt5.dll)
}

Thanks in advance for your help,
Nicolas

EDIT:
By using the QtCreator debuger, the error message indicate me that a DLL is not found. I really don't understand because "libmarblewidget-qt5.dll" is add to PATH and copy next the .exe.
Have you any idea?
Thanks in advance.

Hi again,

I make questions and answers

For information, the documentation doesn't ask us to link with "libastro.dll" but we need to add it to make it works !

So I add this to my pro file:

Code: Select all

win32 {
    INCLUDEPATH += $$quote(C:\Program Files (x86)\marble\include\marble)
    LIBS += $$quote(C:\Program Files (x86)\marble\libmarblewidget-qt5.dll)
    LIBS += $$quote(C:\Program Files (x86)\marble\libastro.dll)
}

Have a nice day,
Nicolas

Thanks for reporting, I added that to https://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Marble/MarbleWindows

http://www.dependencywalker.com/ is handy to find missing link libraries on windows btw.

Hello Earthwings,

Sorry I don't see your answer before. Thank you for your help (here and with my others questions).

Yes I used this software before but now I use QtCreator Debugger mode. With it you can see all DLLs used by QtCreator when the application is launched (very usefull !)

I am trying to set up Marble to work with Qt 5.5 on OSX. I'm not very experienced with the details of linking and such and I think that is causing the problem I am having first premier credit card.

So a semi-solution: I used the Qt Creator "add Library" function and ended up with the following additions to the .pro file. I had to paste in the link to the lib since the dialog doesn't allow browsing of "usr/local/". Also, although I tried to link to the lib alias ("libmarblewidget-qt5.dylib"), the actual lib name is used.

Code: Select all

macx: LIBS += -L$$PWD/../../../../../usr/local/lib/ -lmarblewidget-qt5.0.21.80

INCLUDEPATH += $$PWD/../../../../../usr/local/include
DEPENDPATH += $$PWD/../../../../../usr/local/include
I don't understand what this $$PWD/../../../../../ business is.

But it worked and I am able to run the example code at the link in my question.

I wish this install/build stuff wasn't so damned arcane. I've spent endless hours just trying to get things set up – really sucks the joy out of exploring this stuff and I can't say I really learned much of anything from it. PrepaidGiftBalance
