Hello, andrew

Recently, I try to add some functions with the source code. But I don't know how to release the QCAD. Can you tell me how to release the QCAD? :)

Look forward your reply.

There is no automated release process built into the open source QCAD sources.

You can download our trial packages from the qcad.org web site to see what they contain and where.

Note: if your changes are of interest to the wider public, please consider issuing push requests on github to contribute them back to the QCAD community.

Hello, andrew

I just try to compile the example that the source code give and generate the qcadexample.dll file. I put the qcadexample.dll file to the plugin folder that location in the qcad install folder from the qcad.org website download. But there is an error shown in the Help->Plugin page. (Sorry I don't know how to upload the picture, so I type it in the follows.)

Plugin: No information available
Version: Unknown
Qt Version: 5.5.1
License: Unknown
File: qcadexample.dll
Error: The plugin "D:/program/QCAD/plugins/qcadexample.dll" uses incompatible Qt library.(5.6.1)[release]


And I use the Qt5.6.1 with MSVC2013. Should I use QT5.5.1 or other error caused?

Look forward your reply.
