Qt4 / Qt3 Compatibility Port Difficulties ... 2-1-2008 (Friday), Phil

Development Area:
Src: /projects/riverware/staff/philw/Five/
Obj: /riverware/scratch/staff/philw/Obj5/

---------------------------------------

Accounting/AccountMgr.o

Eight (8) occurances of problems like this:
"/projects/riverware/staff/philw/Five/Accounting/AccountMgr.cpp", line 2639: 
Error: Could not find a match for EditObjList<ScalarSlot>::applyEditList() 
needed in AccountMgr::applyScalarSlotEdits(const EditList<ScalarSlot>*).

Both EditObjList and ScalarSlot header files are included.  

---------------------------------------

GUI/BaseRWDlg.SlotDlg.o

"/usr/local/qt4/include/Qt3Support/q3action.h", line 41: Error: Redefining 
QWidget after use in RplExprSlotDlg::Q3Action.

I followed includes, but can't see where any Q3Action definitions proceed
a forward delcaration of class QWidget.  I don't really understand the 
nature of the problem.

---------------------------------------

The Qwt port not being complete is interfering with my work to port our
huge Q3GUI library.  I don't know if I should spend the time to temporarily
remove that from the build.

---------------------------------------

[Some?] includes in uic-generated code are bad. All-lower case, and ".h"
instead of ".hpp" when that is not correct.  For example:

"/projects/riverware/staff/philw/Five/include/qt/AccountingSystemConfigBase
.hpp", line 28: Error: Could not open include file "datetimeqtspinner.h".

... the header file name is: Q3GUI/DateTimeQtSpinner.hpp (not lower case).

Another example:
"/projects/riverware/staff/philw/Five/include/qt/RunControlDlgBase.hpp", 
line 24: Error: Could not open include file "runbuttonframe.h"
