.SH NAME
|
|
uic \- Qt user interface compiler
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B uic
|
|
[options] file
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
This page documents the
|
|
.B User Interface Compiler
|
|
for the Qt GUI toolkit. The
|
|
.B uic
|
|
reads a user interface definition (.ui) file in XML as generated by
|
|
.I Qt Designer
|
|
and creates corresponding C++ header or source files. It also
|
|
generates an image file that embeds raw image data in C++ source code.
|
|
.PP
|
|
.PP
|
|
Generate declaration:
|
|
.br
|
|
.I "\fB uic [options] \fI<file>"
|
|
.br
|
|
.PP
|
|
Generate implementation:
|
|
.br
|
|
.I "\fB uic [options] -impl \fI<headerfile> <file>"
|
|
.br
|
|
\fI<headerfile>\fP: name of the declaration file
|
|
.br
|
|
.PP
|
|
Generate image collection:
|
|
.br
|
|
.I "\fB uic [options] -embed \fI<project> <image1> <image2> <image3>\fP ..."
|
|
.br
|
|
\fI<project>\fP: project name
|
|
\fI<image[1..n]>\fP: image files
|
|
.br
|
|
.\" .PP
|
|
.\" Generate binary UI file:
|
|
.\" .br
|
|
.\" .I "\fB uic [options] -binary \fI<file>"
|
|
.\" .br
|
|
.PP
|
|
.PP
|
|
For convenience,
|
|
.B uic
|
|
can also generate declaration or implementation stubs for subclasses.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Generate subclass declaration:
|
|
.br
|
|
.I "\fB uic [options] -subdecl \fI<subclassname> <baseclassheaderfile> <file>"
|
|
.br
|
|
\fI<subclassname>\fP: name of the subclass to generate
|
|
.br
|
|
\fI<baseclassheaderfile>\fP: declaration file of the baseclass
|
|
.PP
|
|
Generate subclass implementation:
|
|
.br
|
|
.I "\fB uic [options] -subimpl \fI<subclassname> <subclassheaderfile> <file>"
|
|
.br
|
|
\fI<subclassname>\fP: name of the subclass to generate
|
|
.br
|
|
\fI<subclassheaderfile>\fP: declaration file of the subclass
|
|
|
|
.SH GENERAL OPTIONS
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I "-o file"
|
|
Write output to
|
|
.I file
|
|
rather than to stdout.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I "-nofwd"
|
|
Omit forward declarations of custom classes in the generated
|
|
header file. This is necessary if typedef classes are used.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I "-tr func"
|
|
Use
|
|
.I func()
|
|
instead of tr() for internationalization.
|
|
.TP
|
|
.I "-version"
|
|
Display the version of
|
|
.B uic
|
|
and exit.
|
|
|
|
.SH USAGE
|
|
.B uic
|
|
is almost always invoked by
|
|
.BR make (1),
|
|
rather than by hand.
|
|
.PP
|
|
Here are useful makefile rules if you only use GNU make:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.in +4
|
|
%.h: %.ui
|
|
.br
|
|
uic $< -o $@
|
|
.br
|
|
%.cpp: %.ui
|
|
.br
|
|
uic -impl $*.h $< -o $@
|
|
.in -4
|
|
.PP
|
|
If you want to write portably, you can use individual rules of the
|
|
following form:
|
|
.PP
|
|
.in +4
|
|
NAME.h: NAME.ui
|
|
.br
|
|
uic $< -o $@
|
|
.br
|
|
NAME.cpp: NAME.ui
|
|
.br
|
|
uic -impl $*.h $< -o $@
|
|
.in -4
|
|
.PP
|
|
You must also remember to add
|
|
.I NAME.cpp
|
|
to your SOURCES (substitute your favorite name) variable and
|
|
.I NAME.o
|
|
to your OBJECTS variable.
|
|
.PP
|
|
(While we prefer to name our C++ source files .cpp, the
|
|
.B uic
|
|
doesn't care, so you can use .C, .cc, .CC, .cxx or even .c++ if
|
|
you prefer.)
