[vtk-developers] Antialiasing broken in Qt5

[Kilgus, Thomas]

I am not sure if I get this right. I should remove the Qt dependency from the initialization of the QVTKWidget? But this is widget is Qt dependent per definition? I guess I would not really know what I am doing, since I have no experience with X11. But I could start to make the code compile and check if there is any Qt5 migration guide for these interfaces and defs, if that helps.

Regards,
Thomas

Hi Marcus and David,

I would love to make this run with Qt5 for a demo application. Is there any (straightforward) job I can take care of to help tracking down the issue?

The issue is that the QVTKWidget has some platform specific code to initialize the render window. Trouble is, it goes through a convenience API provided by Qt (Q_WS_X11, QX11Info, etc) to detect and handle the X11 backend, and these interfaces/preprocessor defs are not available in Qt5.

At a minimum, the Qt/X11 code would need to be rewritten to use pure X11 APIs to get this working. I don't think anyone has started on this if you wanted to make a pass at it.

Best,
Dave
