CopperSpice Forum

Wow ... let me catch my breath.... Seasoned_geek is on a roll. First let me say I too am some what of a "curmudgeon" but some of the statements appear a bit extreme. I also know this is a Copperspice forum but Open Source licensing is big factor.... my intent is to always do the "righ...

Something to consider .... since you are on windows, did you consider using the MSVS 2019 Community Edition compiler? Notice I said compiler and not IDE. I concur that ninja is the right builder to combine with CMake ... it is fast and does a good job. I would start off building a HelloWorld app wit...

I know the debate of qmake (.pro) vs cmake will go on for some time. But even the Qt company is transitioning to CMake. QBS was supposed to be sort of a qmake ver 2, and was going to be the build platform for Qt 6. But then in late 2018 "Deprecation of Qbs" (https://www.qt.io/blog/2018/10/...

Ok not technical , but I think Jan is "value".... which is far better than virtual or even imaginary. I have seen Jan's name more that a few times associated with Copperspice...Jan is that you? CppCon 2019 Jason Turner “The Best Parts of C++" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iz5Qx18H6l...

I was looking at the page "CopperSpice Project Using CMake" (https://www.copperspice.com/docs/cs_overview/sample-cs-cmake.html) You have in red the words CMakeLists.txt and HelloLunch, these are not links ... but the CMakelists.txt are on the same page, ok this is fine. The "Hellolunc...

So there is a new elephant in the room: https://www.qt.io/blog/qt-offering-changes-2020 With follow on blog posts like: https://valdyas.org/fading/author/boud/ , and there are many more like this, so the natives are restless. This feels like a opportunity for CS. Can CS reach out to the Krita projec...

I saw a post on the VTK site from a year ago, where somebody asked the same question, but no response ... so asking here.

I use Google Test across a range of applications and build systems. Works well enough for me.

Yup it is NOT Qt, and I should have said "Qversion=" but it gave me the correct answer 1.6.1. With that response I was confident I was actually using Copperspice and had not backed into a Qt install by mistake. The discussion on when to run the utility apps needs some clarification. When e...

Yet another update .... built my first running Copperspice app using MSVS. #include "QString" #include "QVector" #include <QtGlobal> int main() { QString myStr = "Hello from CS"; QVector<QString> vector; vector << "alpha" << "beta" << "delta&quo...
