Here are a few reasons YOU should use QtEZ: Development Controls. QtEZ now will now give the programmer control over almost every aspect of the source code it will write for you, down to the finest of details. It also will save the environment as you leave it - so QtEZ will save itself to make the next run of QtEZ as personal as possible. Parent Child Hierarchy. QtEZ has the ability to allow you to make any widget's parent any other widget. This gives you the power given by Qt to have a clear and concise parent-child relationship. KDE Option. You are by no means forced to use KDE, but if you are a KDE developer there is an option in the environment to turn your project into a KDE application. If you are a KDE supporter, and want QtEZ to respect your KDE settings that too is possible, simply turn on a config option before compiling! Dynamic Allocation of Components. QtEZ can now have third parties creating components for QtEZ, without having to compile it over again. Only thing required is to inherit an abstract class, and define some virtual functions, couldn't be simpler! Non-Blocking Compilation/Target Spawning. This means without leaving QtEZ you can compile and run your program, and as this is non-blocking, you'll be able to work while these occur. Compile-Time Debugger. With this you can effortlessly debug your source code because QtEZ will tell you when there's troubles, and by selecting the problem that your compiler told you of, QtEZ will automatically take you to the object and member with problems. Front End to Favourite Run-Time Debugger. QtEZ will not only assist you in successfully compiling your program, but once it is compiled, any problems you've created can easily be debugged in your favourite debugger. This allows faster access to the debugger, while creating the most familiar environment to you, so you can proceed with your project rather then learning new debugger commands. Smart Attributes Editor. This is one of the simplest, yet best tools of QtEZ. This makes it so that a user familiar with only one widget on the QtEZ environment, can easily navigate the others, because attributes are on a very simple list, all on the same dialog, and in alphabetical order. , making for a very uniform experience. Flag Configuration. This allows you quite a bit of control over the Makefile that QtEZ will write for you, but it also allows you to make your main focus of your project, the program, allowing QtEZ to be flexible, as well as clever enough to aid in program completion. Signal and Slot Mechanism. With the click of your mouse button, you can connect Qt's ingenious Signals and Slots. These connections allow you to have a signal notify several functions of it's emition easily. Fully Integrated Dialog Editor / Source Editor. Within a few moments a user can both layout the dialogs of a program and write the source code behind the events. QtEZ will automatically decide whether you need a new class, or if you can just use the generic object given by Qt. Two Saving Methods. You can save your project in a serialization format for QtEZ, so you can continue your work inside of QtEZ at a later time, or you can tell QtEZ to dump your project in language specific format. Doing this will have QtEZ interactivly create class declarations, as well as other member definitions. QtEZ will then also create your main(), do all Qt class includes, and write your Makefile for you. Robust Database. The database that QtEZ will create of your project has many features not found in other IDE's it also supports the ability to mold around new changes, so even if the file format changes your old projects will still load fine.
