How to use SDK with Qt Creator

This tutorial will create a Qt project with Qt Creator to start using SDK.

You could find the project demo in <sdk>/samples/simple_demo/qtcreator directory.

Preparation

  • Windows: install the win pack of SDK

  • Linux: build from source and make install

Create Project

Open Qt Creator, then New Project,

../_images/new_project.png

Choose Qt Widgets Application,

../_images/new_project2.png

Set project location and its name,

../_images/new_project3.png

Select the build kits,

../_images/new_project4.png

Then, it will generate the skeleton source files,

Finally, you will see the new project like this,

Config Project

Edit mynteyed_demo.pro to add INCLUDEPATH and LIBS.

win32 {
    SDK_ROOT = "$$(MYNTEYED_SDK_ROOT)"
    isEmpty(SDK_ROOT) {
        error( "MYNTEYED_SDK_ROOT not found, please install SDK firstly" )
    }
    message("SDK_ROOT: $$SDK_ROOT")

    INCLUDEPATH += "$$SDK_ROOT/include"
    LIBS += "$$SDK_ROOT/lib/mynteye_depth.lib"
}

unix {
    INCLUDEPATH += /usr/local/include
    LIBS += -L/usr/local/lib -lmynteye_depth
}

Start using SDK

Include the headers of SDK and start using its APIs, could see the project demo.

Windows

Should select “Release” to run the project.

Then you will see the main window,
