[Qt-interest] Eclipse Integration for custom widget plugins

[majo huber]

Hi at all,

I wanted to ask if anybody out there got the eclipse integration with
custom widget plugins working?

I want to use eclipse for designing our GUI since this is our main IDE
and it's pretty easy to switch between different toolchains. That
seems to be not that easy with QTCreator.

In a first step I compiled the thumbwheel widget from QT and
integrated the plugin with QTCreator so that I am able to use it in
its designer like e.g. the normal button widget. That works fine.

Then I was trying to do this also with eclipse. I copied the plugin
library (libthumbwheelplugin.so) to
/home/$USER/.eclipse/org.eclipse.platform_3_5_0_1559651261/plugins/com.trolltech.qtcppdesignerplugins.linux.x86_64/
and restarted eclipse with eclipse -clean. But nothing happend. The
Thumbwheel doesn't appear in the Qt C++ Widget box.

Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thanks,
majo
