IDC - The Interface Description Compiler (ActiveQt)▲
The IDC tool is part of the ActiveQt build system and makes it possible to turn any Qt binary into a full COM object server with only a few lines of code.
IDC understands the following command line parameters:
Option |
Result |
---|---|
dll -idl idl -version x.y |
Writes the IDL of the server dll to the file idl. The type library wll have version x.y. |
dll -tlb tlb |
Replaces the type library in dll with tlb |
-v |
Print version information |
-regserver dll |
Register the COM server dll |
-unregserver |
Unregister the COM server dll |
It is usually never necessary to invoke IDC manually, as the qmake build system takes care of adding the required post processing steps to the build process.
