QtProjectTool Reviews

Really useful tool, needs a bit of setup but that's ok.

What bruceoutdoors wrote is mostly true, but: 1) you have to enable TaskList plugin in Qt Creator to see Cppcheck output in the Issues pane; 2) you don't have to add Qt Creator binaries to PATH; 3) you don't have to use outdated versions of applications and libraries - they works with QtProjectTool 1.1, Cppcheck 1.62, Qt Creator 3.0; 4) instructions how to setup Qt Creator are in the QtProjectTool manual. Enjoy analyzing!

I would recommend it, but given the hassle to set things up I'd give 4/5 stars. In addition to the manual, using windows there are couple of things to bear in mind: 1. in the arguments field during setting up, be aware that unless you set cppcheck in your environment paths, "--tool=cppcheck" does not work. You'll need to set the directory: --qtc-plugin --tool="C:/Cppcheck-1.55/cppcheck.exe" %{CurrentProject:FilePath} 2. You'll need to set an environment paths to QtCreator(usually in C:\Qt\Qt5.0.2\Tools\QtCreator\bin). Without this the warning messages from cppcheck does not show up in the issues pane 3. Don't use cppcheck 1.60. In qpt 0.7, It doesn't work. I got things running with cppcheck 1.55. windows 7 32bit, Qt 5.0.2 MinGW, cppcheck 1.55

Thanks for Qtprojecttool, it's excellent!
