\page page_buildinstructions_QMAKE DEPRECATED: Build using QMake

\warning The <a href="https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qmake-manual.html">QMake</a> build system is deprecated and will 
         not get the same love and atttention as the recommended CMake system, see \ref page_buildinstructions_CMAKE !

\section page_buildinstructions_QMAKEINCLUDE DEPRECATED: QMake Include Project

If you want to simply include the JKQTPlotter Source code into your projects, without build a shared or static library and linking against it, you can use one of  these QMake-Include files:
  - <a href="https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/blob/master/lib/jkqtplotter.pri">lib/jkqtplotter.pri</a> includes the complete library (JKQTPlotter, JKQTFastPlotter, JKQTMathText)
  - <a href="https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/blob/master/lib/jkqtmathtext.pri">lib/jkqtmathtext.pri</a> includes only JKQTMathText
  - <a href="https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/blob/master/lib/jkqtfastplotter.pri">lib/jkqtfastplotter.pri</a> includes only JKQTFastPlotter
.

In your <a href="https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qmake-manual.html">QMake</a>-projects it is then sufficient to add a line like:
\code{.qmake}
  include(<PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/lib/jkqtplotter.pri)
\endcode

\section page_buildinstructions_QMAKESTATIC DEPRECATED: QMake Static Library

There are several `.PRO`-files, that can be used to build the full library, or a limited subsets of it as static link library:
  - <a href="https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/blob/master/qmake/staticlib/jkqtplotterlib/jkqtplotterlib.pro">qmake/staticlib/jkqtplotterlib/jkqtplotterlib.pro</a> builds the complete library (JKQTPlotter, JKQTFastPlotter, JKQTMathText) as static link library
  - <a href="https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/blob/master/qmake/staticlib/jkqtmathtextlib/jkqtmathtextlib.pro">qmake/staticlib/jkqtmathtextlib/jkqtmathtextlib.pro</a> builds only JKQTMathText as static link library
  - <a href="https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/blob/master/qmake/staticlib/jkqtfastplotterlib/jkqtfastplotterlib.pro">qmake/staticlib/jkqtfastplotterlib/jkqtfastplotterlib.pro</a> builds only JKQTFastPlotter as static link library
.
They will produce a static link library that you can include into your projects, e.g. with the following QMake-snippet:

\code{.qmake}
# include JKQTPlotter library
DEPENDPATH += \
              <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/lib \
              <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/staticlib/jkqtplotterlib
INCLUDEPATH += <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/lib
CONFIG (debug, debug|release) {
    DEPENDPATH += <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/staticlib/jkqtplotterlib/debug
    LIBS += -L<PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/staticlib/jkqtplotterlib/debug -ljkqtplotterlib_debug
} else {
    DEPENDPATH += <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/staticlib/jkqtplotterlib/release
    LIBS += -L<PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/staticlib/jkqtplotterlib/release -ljkqtplotterlib
}
\endcode

This snippet assumes that you built the libraries with the provided <code>.PRO</code>-files. You can also add a second <code>.PRO</code> -file to your projects, which integrates both as subdirs. Such files are used for all examples in this project. Here is an example:

\code{.qmake}
TEMPLATE = subdirs

# the (static library version) of JKQTPlotter
jkqtplotterlib_static.file = ../../qmake/staticlib/jkqtplotterlib/jkqtplotterlib.pro

# your project file, with declared dependencies on jkqtplotterlib_static
test_styling.file=$$PWD/test_styling.pro
test_styling.depends = jkqtplotterlib_static

# add the two entries to SUBDIRS
SUBDIRS +=  jkqtplotterlib_static test_styling

\endcode



\section page_buildinstructions_QMAKEDYNAMIC DEPRECATED: QMake Dynamic Library

There are several `.PRO`-files, that can be used to build the full library, or a limited subsets of it as shred library:
  - <a href="https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/blob/master/qmake/sharedlib/jkqtplotterlib/jkqtplotterlib.pro">qmake/sharedlib/jkqtplotterlib/jkqtplotterlib.pro</a> builds the complete library (JKQTPlotter, JKQTFastPlotter, JKQTMathText) as shared library
  - <a href="https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/blob/master/qmake/sharedlib/jkqtmathtextlib/jkqtmathtextlib.pro">qmake/sharedlib/jkqtmathtextlib/jkqtmathtextlib.pro</a> builds only JKQTMathText as shared library
  - <a href="https://github.com/jkriege2/JKQtPlotter/blob/master/qmake/sharedlib/jkqtfastplotterlib/jkqtfastplotterlib.pro">qmake/sharedlib/jkqtfastplotterlib/jkqtfastplotterlib.pro</a> builds only JKQTFastPlotter as shared library
.
They will produce a dynamic link library that you can include into your projects, e.g. with the following QMake-snippet:

\code{.qmake}
# include JKQTPlotter library
DEPENDPATH += \
              <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/lib \
              <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/sharedlib/jkqtplotterlib
INCLUDEPATH += <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/lib
DEFINES += JKQTCOMMON_LIB_IN_DLL JKQTFASTPLOTTER_LIB_IN_DLL JKQTMATHTEXT_LIB_IN_DLL JKQTPLOTTER_LIB_IN_DLL
CONFIG (debug, debug|release) {
    # ensure that DLLs are copied to the output directory
    install_jkqtplotter_dll.files = <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/sharedlib/jkqtplotterlib/debug/jkqtplotterlib_debug.*
    install_jkqtplotter_dll.path = $$OUT_PWD
    INSTALLS += install_jkqtplotter_dll
    # link agains DLLs
    DEPENDPATH += <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/sharedlib/jkqtplotterlib/debug
    LIBS += -L<PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/sharedlib/jkqtplotterlib/debug -ljkqtplotterlib_debug
} else {
    # ensure that DLLs are copied to the output directory
    install_jkqtplotter_dll.files = <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/sharedlib/jkqtplotterlib/release/jkqtplotterlib.*
    install_jkqtplotter_dll.path = $$OUT_PWD
    INSTALLS += install_jkqtplotter_dll
    # link agains DLLs
    DEPENDPATH += <PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/sharedlib/jkqtplotterlib/release
    LIBS += -L<PATHTOJKQTPLOTTERDIR>/qmake/sharedlib/jkqtplotterlib/release -ljkqtplotterlib
}
\endcode

This snippet assumes that you built the libraries with the provided `.PRO`-files. You can also add a second `.pro`-file to your projects, which integrates both as subdirs. Such files are used for all examples in this project. Here is an example:
\code{.qmake}
TEMPLATE = subdirs

# the (shared library version) of JKQTPlotter
jkqtplotterlib_shared.file = ../../qmake/sharedlib/jkqtplotterlib.pro

# your project file, with declared dependencies on jkqtplotterlib_shared
test_styling.file=$$PWD/test_styling.pro
test_styling.depends = jkqtplotterlib_shared

# add the two entries to SUBDIRS
SUBDIRS +=  jkqtplotterlib_shared test_styling
\endcode

\note You will have to run a deployment step `make install` before running your executable, so the shared libararies are actually copied to the output directory (see `INSTALLS + ...` above).



\section page_buildinstructions_QMAKEQTCREATOR DEPRECATED: QMake in QTCreator

You can load the file \c JKQtPlotterBuildAllExamples.pro in te base directory of the project directly in QtCreator and use it to build the library and the examples.
