QtDropbox Installation Guide

Dependencies

To build and use QtDropbox you'll need the Qt C++ Framework with version 4.7 or higher available for download at Qt Project.

To generate a documentation you need to have doxygen installed.

Building

QtDropbox is built by using these commands:

qmake
make

If you want to generate a documentation use

make documentation

After all binaries are compiled use

make install

This will create the directories lib/ and qtdropbox/.

The lib/ directory contains the compiled QtDropbox library. These are not automatically copied to your global library directory (/usr/local/lib or /usr/lib on Linux) - you'll have to do this manually if you wish them to be available system wide.

The qtdropbox/ directory contains all header files and the libqtdropbox.pri project definitions file. You'll need to copy this folder into your project that will use QtDropbox as it contains all necessary definitions. See Usage below for details.

Usage

Using with Qt projects

When including QtDropbox into your project your project you have to include the libqtdropbox.pri project definitions file. This will add all necessary header files to your project and link with the library.

The network module of Qt will automatically be added to your project as it is required to run QtDropbox.

Using with other C++ projects

QtDropbox is not intended to be used with non-Qt projects. If you make it run - tell me :)
