Support Qt Creators's install plugin feature

Open jesperkdab opened this issue 4 years ago • 2 comments

In you documentation you tell us to install by unzipping to the root of Qt Creator. This works fine, and from that dir I get: ./bin/libhunspell.dll ./lib/qtcreator/plugins/SpellChecker4.dll

However, if I do Help -> About Plugins, and choose the button "Install Plugin", then it dump the files in: ./lib/qtcreator/plugins/lib/qtcreator/plugins/SpellChecker4.dll ./lib/qtcreator/plugins/bin/libhunspell.dll

And then the plugin doesn't work (likely because it fails to find libhunspell.dll

Cheers Jesper.

Hi @jesperkdab

Thanks for bringing this to my attention. I was not aware of the following option in Qt Creator

Help -> About Plugins, and choose the button "Install Plugin"

This would surely simplify the process to install and I will make this a priority to see if there is something I can do to support this way of installing the plugin.

Is this relatively new in Qt Creator? I unfortunately don't use Qt Creator in my da-to-day (since a year ago) and as a result don't keep up with changes in the IDE anymore as much as I used to. I am forced to use a much lesser IDE 👎

Actually I don't know. It only came to my attention after I had recorded the Qt Widgets and More video on your plugin.
