How to install <QtCharts> on windows
I have a hard time getting QtCharts to work on my computer. I think I am missing the concept. I have Qt 5.8 installed on my computer. I am using visual studio for all my development. After googling for a while I have noticed people say that you need to import the QtChart module but I do not understand:
1) Why QtCharts is not a part of my Qt installation in the first place?
2) And if I do have to install it, how do I do it on windows with VS 2017?
If someone could please clear this up for me I would really appreciate it.
Thank you.
Solution
The question is old but I had the same question. To install the QtCharts Module (or any other module) here is what you want to do:
- go to your Qt Installation Folder, find and open the MaintenanceTool.exe
- skip the first page
- press "settings" and open the "repository" tab
- select "user defined repositories" and press "add"
- now in the new line check the "use" Checkbox and copy an URL to a Qt repo (see this stackoverflow question No default repositories in Qt Maintenance Tool) into the "Repository" column (leave the rest blank)
- press "ok"
- select "add or remove component" and press next
- now under Qt->Qt 5.8 you see all installed addons, check the boxes you Need
