QT C++ code samples

You don't have to use QT for it. Just run the ./Cad file, its a compiled executable about 29mb.
You can directly run the program. Please try if it works!, thanks.

Thanks for all the hard work you are putting into this.

May I ask a dumb question does this run on a windows machine or linuxcnc.

When I unzip it, Cad is only 1.55Mb and does not open.

Try this one..

I can download this one, and run it.. I see the CadCam file is 1.6 mb.

Hi Clive,

Thanks for your question.

It runs also on a window's machine. Only thing i have to do is compile it for window's. I tested that a few month's ago and it works fine for windows. I had to install the windows sdk (development set). Very soon i will provide a windows version.

I get the following error:

I have tried this but it won't open.

Getting the same errors on all of them, even the 29MB one, the QT core version is up to date.
Slowly but surely i am beginning to hate QT, everything i have touched with it comes back with a plethora of very cryptic errors. Not good at all.

Hi all, thanks for this test phase so far.

I got a solution !! It's called "deployement" It writes all files, dependencies, libraries etc into one file as an image..

Have tested this on a non qt linux pc and it works now.. The program can be started from usb also..

The procedure is very, very easy :
Download and unpack the zip file, the executable is named : Cad--x86_64.AppImage (p.s. must be marked as executable, but i think it is already)

Download link :
CadCam program

For other QT writers..
I used in terminal :
terminal : export PATH=/home/grotius/Qt/5.12.3/gcc_64/bin/:$PATH
terminal : ./linuxdeployqt-6-x86_64.AppImage Cad -appimage

I feel the same Tom, the more I see of QT the less I like it.

Unfortunately it looks like the way everything is heading.

Yes, that worked.
It looks good but there is a bit of strange behaviour shown in the video linked to below.
This is on a Stretch virtual machine in VMware Fusion on a Mac. I will try later today on a real machine.
