The Qt Creator 4.2 release has been announced for general availability. This version comes with a host of bug fixes, improvements and bug fixes.<\/p>\n
Qt Creator is a free and open source C++<\/a> Integrated Development Environment (IDE<\/a>) designed for developing applications using the Qt Framework. This framework has a set of library and tools that are used to develop applications in C++, JavaScript<\/a>, and QML<\/a>. It is also popular to develop in Python<\/a> to a lesser extent.<\/p>\n It is part of the Qt 5.7.1 update<\/a> released concurrently with this version.<\/p>\n The new projects mode now makes changes in the UI how projects are selected from the settings tree and a set of drop downs rather than nested tabs. This promises to give better experience when dealing with projects.<\/p>\n There are new features in the Qt<\/a> Quick Designer. Even though changes appear across the board, most significant changes are in the managing the imports and property definitions areas.<\/p>\n There are now several fixes and improvements with CMake <\/a>support which now includes the server-mode feature. The QML profiler now supports views of memory usage and allocations as flame graphs.<\/p>\n This version now supplements the Qt SCXML module by offering an experimental graphical editor for SCXML. Qt SCXML is expected to be full-fledged in Qt 5.8. It is a new module in Qt that allows you to create state machines from State Chart XML and embed them into Qt C++ and Qt Quick<\/a> applications.<\/p>\n For those developers using the online installer, Qt Creator 4.2 can be updated using the maintenance tool. Offline packages are also available for commercial users via the Qt Account portal<\/a> and at the official download page<\/a> for the open-source users.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The Qt Creator 4.2 release has been announced for general availability.
