Examples▲
If you use qmake, uic will be invoked automatically for header files.
Here are useful makefile rules if you only use GNU make:
ui_%.h: %.ui
uic $< -o $@If you want to write portably, you can use individual rules of the following form:
ui_foo.h: foo.ui
uic $< -o $@You must also remember to add ui_foo.h to your HEADERS (substitute your favorite name).
