Hello I'm new to this list. I'm an academic of the humanities and use Qt now and then via C++ / Python+PyQt in relation with my academic projects. I should not I'm *not* a highly experienced advanced programmer, but am OK with intermediate stuff.
I have a small library which I would like to be used with both Qt and non-Qt programs. Basically I want to use QList if the calling program will be using Qt anyway, else I want to use std::deque (which seems to be the one with most similar API to QList). So I am thinking of using #define-s like: [code] #ifdef QT_VERSION #define MyList QList #else #include <deque> #define MyList std::deque #endif [/code] ... and then use MyList throughout my code. I assumed that it is safe to assume that if QT_VERSION is defined, Qt is being used? Is this OK? I want to know what is the accepted/conventional of testing whether Qt is being used. In relation, if a program uses Qt, does it mean it also uses the STL containers anyway? I'm asking since QList seems to have facilities to convert to and from some STL containers which may not be possible if they are not used somewhere inside Qt? (Note: I am aware that the API of QList is not identical to that of the STL containers -- obviously I'd be using only the identical functionalities.)
