installing widgets for qt

I resently found a very useful set of widgets set for qt from http://www.wysota.eu.org/wwwidgets/ and I downloaded wwWidgets 1.0 installer for MinGW and simply installed it. now I can see those widgets in qt creator, and I can drag and drop them.

but when compiling the project it says that those include files are not found. (ex: qwwled.h not found) but I see that file is in C:\Qt\4.8.3\include\wwWidgets

please if someone can help me in this issue I would be very thankful.

im using qt 4.8.3 with mingw 4.4

You should add to your project file

CONFIG+=wwwidgets

wwWidgets installs its own feature (see file wwwidgets.prf) This feature provides information about library files and headers required for using widgets.

You should fix your include PATH and add C:\Qt\4.8.3\include\wwWidgets to it

Add in your .pro file :

INCLUDEPATH += "C:\\Qt\\4.8.3\\include\\wwWidgets"

But it may not be the best way, because if you share your project, the .pro must be edited. You should use / add a environment variable

So the best solution is this one : 

INCLUDEPATH += $$(WWWIDGETS_INCLUDE_PATH)

And set the environment variable WWWIDGETS_INCLUDE_PATH to C:\Qt\4.8.3\include\wwWidgets

Do not forget to add :

CONFIG(release, debug|release): LIBS += "C:\\Qt\\4.8.3\\lib\\libwwwidgets4.a"
else:CONFIG(debug, debug|release): LIBS += "C:\\Qt\\4.8.3\\lib\\libwwwidgets4d.a"

Or add this, which is better and cleaner :

CONFIG(release, debug|release): LIBS += -lwwwidgets4
else:CONFIG(debug, debug|release): LIBS += -lwwwidgets4d
