[Clam-devel] clam plugins for QT4 --Ubuntu 9.04 Jaunty

[David García Garzón]

Qt was supposed to look for a folder named 'designer' in any of a set of paths 
on of those paths is the path of the running executable. IIRC, because the 
lack of filesystem standard in windows, NetworkEditor windows installer 
installs its own copy of designer.exe in a given folder and, within that 
folder it creates a 'designer' folder for the plugins. I am not sure whether 
the plugins are included or not on the NetEditor installer.

Of course, if you are compiling it yourself, you could manage in many different 
ways in windows, including setting the QT_PLUGIN_PATH environment or editing 
the qtconfig settings.

Regarding the use of the plugins in non CLAM apps, it should be viable, but we 
didn't tried yet, so it is possible that there is still some coupling.

MSVC is not supported anymore in CLAM. Dirk was willing to eventually bring 
back such support. Until then mingw is the way in windows.
