miqt-uic

The miqt-uic program compiles Qt Designer .ui files into MIQT .go files.

Usage

For example usage information, see the examples/uidesigner folder.

Usage of ./miqt-uic:
  -InFile string
        Input .ui file
  -OutFile string
        Output .go file, or - for stdout (default "-")
  -Package string
        Custom package name (default "main")
  -Qt6
        Use Qt 6 instead of Qt 5

Architecture design

1. Parse xml type definitions
2. Recursively walk and emit Go code.

When developing miqt-uic, it's useful to run Qt uic side-by-side, and compare the output of each program for missing attributes or assignments.
