Installing Qt for Linux

Qt is cross-platform application framework for Graphics User Interface (GUI) development. This application framework is implemented as a set of related libraries. The Qt libraries are used within Tonatiuh to implement the program's GUI, the plug-in architecture, the parallel processing functionality, and the scripting capabilities, among other things.

Here you will find instructions to install the Qt libraries in your computer and make those libraries available for the development of Tonatiuh.

Details

In the Tonatiuh development, the las Qt version, Qt-5, is used. Donwload and install it from the SO software management tool.

• First, ensure that your package list is up to date before installing any new libraries:

sudo apt-get update

• Install develepment libraries of the base system:

$ sudo apt-get install qt*5-dev

• Install extension libraries required by Toantiuh:

$sudo apt-get install qt5-default libqt5svg5* libqt5webkit5* qt3d-gltfsceneio-plugin qt3d-scene2d-plugin qt3d-defaultgeometryloader-plugin qt3d-assimpsceneimport-plugin 

Once the Qt libraries and development tools are installed, the next step is to install the Coin3D library.
