How are QGIS plugins used in QGIS application?
QGIS uses dynamically loaded Libraries (DL) to implement and manage plugins. Please not I use the term dynamically loaded, not shared. There is a small difference between dynamically loaded and shared libraries. The first type – DL – is what we use in QGIS as plugins.
Can a QGIS installation be carried on a flash drive?
QGIS allows you to define a –configpath option that overrides the default path for user configuration (e.g., ~/.qgis2 under Linux) and forces QSettings to use this directory, too. This allows you to, for instance, carry a QGIS installation on a flash drive together with all plugins and settings.
How to start a project in QGIS command line?
Command line option –project. Starting QGIS with an existing project file is also possible. Just add the command line option –project followed by your project name and QGIS will open with all layers in the given file loaded.
Where can I find Bug Tracker for QGIS plugins?
A plugin’s bug tracking system can be found on the information page for that plugin. If no information is available, please report it to the Developer mailing-list. The pyQGIS cookbook contains a section on developing plugins and is an ongoing effort to collect tips and tricks about QGIS python programming generaly.
Why is QGIS not launching in Windows 2008?
Usually the reason for this is a missing Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable Package (x86). Install and try again. (In conjunction with the answers above) Check for the existence of the file qgis.bat
How to debug QGIS plugins using KDevelop?
KDevelop includes such a frontend, so when you run debugging session from KDevelop, most likely, you are using gdb (you can also use third-party debuggers from KDevelop, but that’s not subject of this document). So, I will discuss debugging with gdb – using its console based interface, then I will discuss KDevelop usage.
