Hi Antal,

Before attempting to build be sure to setup your environment first:

I started with Qt5.4.1  ages ago. :)
An example, follows for those who use the unix bash shell:
Note: PACKAGE_TOP is the location that you installed your packages ==> Qt5.x and qwt 6.1.x
Just replace $PACKAGE_TOP as appropriate with your  "/opt" or "/usr/local"
*********************************************************************************************************
# ==========================================================
# Let's setup for caQtDM: From PSI
# Display Editor and Manager for Control System GUI Development
# Both Editor/Runtime
# Using QT5 and QWT
# ==========================================================
QTDIR=$PACKAGE_TOP/Qt-5.4.1
QTINC=$PACKAGE_TOP/Qt-5.4.1/include
QTLIB=$PACKAGE_TOP/Qt-5.4.1/lib
export QT_PLUGIN_PATH="${QTDIR}/plugins"
export PATH=$QTDIR/bin:$PATH
# ==========================================================

# ==========================================================
# QWT Setup
# ==========================================================
export QWT_ROOT=$PACKAGE_TOP/qwt-6.1.2
export QT_PLUGIN_PATH="${QWT_ROOT}/plugins:$QT_PLUGIN_PATH"

# ==========================================================
# Plugin location for caQtDM and epicsQT
# ==========================================================
export QT_PLUGIN_PATH="${EPICS_EXTENSIONS}/lib/${EPICS_HOST_ARCH}:$QT_PLUGIN_PATH"
# ==========================================================

***********************************************************************************************

Note: you can put the above in a file and source it before building caQtDM

Cheers,
Ernesto

Subject: caQtDM installation help needed

Dear Folks,

I’m in a bit of trouble with the installation of caQtDM-4.1.5 on Ubuntu 16.04.

As the installation notes says the prerequisites are Qt5.x and qwt 6.1.x and Qt Designer (however I’m not sure whether I need Qt Designer if I have Qt Creator installed with Qt5.6.3).

I managed to install Qt5.6.3 to /opt/Qt5.6.3/ and qwt6.1.3 at /usr/local/qwt-6.1.3/.

I extracted the caQtDM archive to /usr/local/epics/extension/src/caqtdm-4.1.5.

However I’m not sure how to set the configuration variables inside caQtDM_Env.

Also a broken qt4 installation can be found on the system and it seems like the caQtDM_Build script tries to use that one
during installation as I get the following error message when I run the script:

qmake: could not exec '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake': No such file or directory

I’m a bit stuck at the moment, so any help regarding to the overall installation of caQtDM with the mentioned prerequisites
would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you in advance!

Yours truly,
