.dll import, component based development etc.

Hi there!

I was wondering how can i have one project that is main (Qt Symbian) and
other project that implements some functionality (e.g. sum(int a, int b) method) i a single .dll file?
How do I use other project output in first (main) project?
I am Visual Studio developer, in VS all you have to do is add reference in main project to second project, an this is it. How is this done in Qt Creator?

I found this example that might solve my issue but there is nothing mentioned about how it is done in Qt creator. There are 2 zip files (2 project) that do not correlate with each other in any way. Even when i start them nothing works (i get blank screen)

If you are developing new application then
Easiest way to use qmlRegisterType as shown in the following example for QML
qmlRegisterType<CLocationSource>("LocationSource", 1, 0, "CLocationSource");

In QML you can use CLocationSource as element.
In that example it is done in other way, but idea is same and this one is easier way.

Hi,
But what do i do with .dll file from second project? How do i include it in my project?
Will intellisence then recognize objects in .dll file?

Hi,
2nd project is QML plug in project (dll). That shows how we can implement with Qt C++ in a plug in and that properties can be exported to QML.

If you include import com.nokia.TimeExample 1.0 in your QML file then the element in dll project will recognize it. I just tried this example with QtSDK and it works fine.

If you want to have a separate project then you can do like this but you can have a single project and register your C++ object with qmlRegisterType

Hope this clarifies.
