Using qwt with this package about qt_ros

[stonier]

Can you do a find_package for qwt and then add it to the include directories?

I haven't used qwt before and we don't use qt_ros any longer (shifted to android and qt remocons with regular qt programs) but I've been using qcustomplot for graphing recently in a qt graphical monitor. The basics should still be similar as its all just qt-cmake.

The relevant lines to make use of qcustomplot in my CMakeLists.txt:

find_package(QCustomPlot REQUIRED)
set(QCustomPlot_INCLUDE_DIRS ${QCustomPlot_INCLUDE_DIR})
catkin_package(
    INCLUDE_DIRS include 
    LIBRARIES ${PROJECT_NAME} 
    CATKIN_DEPENDS
        ...
    DEPENDS
        QCustomPlot
        ...
    )
include_directories(
    include
    include/${PROJECT_NAME}  # for convenience
    ${catkin_INCLUDE_DIRS}
    ${QT_INCLUDES}    # list of escaped QtCore, ... subdirs.
    ${QT_INCLUDE_DIR} # the root level qt4 dir
    ${QCustomPlot_INCLUDE_DIR}
)

The package.xml also needs a rosdep build_depends and rosdepends for qcustomplot so you can install dependencies automagically.

Then in the ui I make sure I specify a regular widget which I then promote to a QCustomPlot widget.

Closing since this issue has gone Jurassic and no plan to move on this for now.
