<h1 data-number="1" id="introduction"><span
class="header-section-number">1</span> Introduction</h1>
<p>The <strong>MUtilities</strong> library is a collection of routines
and classes to extend the <a href="http://qt-project.org/"><em>Qt
cross-platform framework</em></a>. It contains various convenience and
utility functions as well as wrappers for OS-specific functionalities.
The library was originally created as a "side product" of the <a
href="http://lamexp.sourceforge.net/"><strong>LameXP</strong></a>
application: Over the years, a lot of code, <strong>not</strong> really
specific to <em>LameXP</em>, had accumulated in the <em>LameXP</em> code
base. Some of that code even had been used in other projects too, in a
"copy &amp; paste" fashion – which had lead to redundancy and much
complicated maintenance. In order to clean-up the LameXP code base, to
eliminate the ugly redundancy and to simplify maintenance, the code in
question has finally been refactored into the
<strong>MUtilities</strong> (aka "MuldeR's Utilities for Qt") library.
This library now forms the foundation of <em>LameXP</em> and <a
href="https://github.com/lordmulder"><em>other OpenSource
projects</em></a>.</p>

<p>Here is a minimal example on how to use the <em>MUtilities</em>
library in your project:</p>
Some documentation updates.

#include &lt;MUtils/Global.h&gt;

<ul>
Re-generated documents.
2022-06-16 16:46:10 +02:00
<li>In order to use the <em>MUtilities</em> library in your project,
your build environment must have already been set up for building
Qt-based projects. Setting up Qt is <em>not</em> covered by this
document.</li>
<li>Additionally, make sure that <em>MUtilities'</em>
<code>include/</code> directory is contained in your "Additional Include
Directories" and that the <em>MUtilities'</em> <code>bin/</code>
directory is contained in your "Additional Library Directories".</li>
<li>Finally, make sure that your project links against the
<code>MUtils32-1.lib</code> library file. For each build configuration,
pick the proper <strong>.lib</strong> file from the corresponding
<code>bin/&lt;platform&gt;/&lt;config&gt;/</code> directory!</li>
<li>If your projects intends to use the <em>MUtilities</em> library as a
<strong>static</strong> library, then the macro
<code>MUTILS_STATIC_LIB</code> <em>must</em> be added to your project's
"Preprocessor Definitions".</li>
