\omit KEEP THIS FILE SYNCHRONIZED WITH uic.1 \endomit
This page documents the \e{User Interface Compiler} for the Qt GUI
toolkit. The \c uic reads an XML format user interface definition
(\c .ui) file as generated by \l{designer-manual.html}{Qt
Designer} and creates a corresponding C++ header file.
Usage:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_uic.qdoc 0
\section1 Options
The following table lists the command-line options recognized by
\c uic.
\table
\header \o Option \o Description
\row \o \c{-o <file>} \o Write output to \c <file> instead of to standard output.
\row \o \c{-tr <func>} \o Use \c <func> for translating strings instead of \c tr().
\row \o \c{-p} \o Don't generate guards against multiple inclusion (\c #ifndef FOO_H ...).
\row \o \c{-h} \o Display the usage and the list of options.
\row \o \c{-v} \o Display \c{uic}'s version number.
\endtable
\section1 Examples
If you use \c qmake, \c uic will be invoked automatically for
header files.
Here are useful makefile rules if you only use GNU make:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_uic.qdoc 1
If you want to write portably, you can use individual rules of the
following form:
\snippet doc/src/snippets/code/doc_src_uic.qdoc 2
You must also remember to add \c{ui_foo.h} to your \c HEADERS
(substitute your favorite name).
