Qt4 development environment

[paufp]

Hello, all.
I would like to start developing with Qt4 on Fedora 16 VirtualBox guest system, but I am not a linux guru.
Is it any difference to install Qt from .run (downloaded from qt-project.org) or using yum? As for me - it is better to install using yum, but ...
Is there any package (or group) to install Qt4 using yum?

I think the following packages should be installed (see attachement, it is not allowed to paste here).
Am I right?

Thank you in advance for answering

Qt4 development package is qt-devel.
I'm no programmer so I can't help further than that.

You could maybe use Fedora 17 with KDE that will come with many Qt stuff already.
There's also a group called 'KDE Software Development' that includes other KDE related things besides Qt.

Hello @paufp,

QT4 is available as a package on F17 (and I believe F16 as well as many previous versions) and I have had no need to install any (obvious) KDE aspects except any dependencies it may require. I used the add/remove software package manager in Gnome and it worked slick. I have both the RPM that came with the distro installed, and a modified QT Creator (for BlackBerry development) and both seem to work fine. I would add that I am more of a Java developer, so QT was not much of a priority to me until I got into trying some coding for the BB10 OS in native, and too I have not tried to get the simulation going for any of the BB OS10 devices, so the ultimate test has not been done yet. As far as QT4, I did go through the tutorials a bit, everything I have tried with it so far has worked.

I have been using Qt with Eclipse and autotools - its been interesting

I like to use autotools whenever I am developing something that might have an extended life, just in case I need to support multiple environments.

Eclipse is widely available, and I can usually install it at work as well as on my own system. I think its main advantage is its ability to provide easy access and autocomplete to complex libraries (like Qt).

Qt because its C++ and cross platform.

I put the following guides together a few years ago: Qt and Eclipse

All the software has been installed from Fedora's package management applications.

Thank you all very much.

yum -y install qt qt-devel qt-assistant qt-assistant-adp qt-assistant-adp-devel qt-config qt-demos qt-doc qt-examples qt-x11 qt-creator

Everything is working fine, except QtCreator does not see my proxy setting :-\
