rqt plugin development

I'm trying to make my own rqt plugin. I've been through the tutorials and been following this link so far: http://answers.ros.org/question/249395/how-to-turn-existing-qt-widgets-into-rqt-plugin/?comment=251339#post-id-251339

I've met a lot of problems, and most of them has to do with what files to use. I use Qt Creator to create the .ui file. My confusion is what other files do I need since there is a lot of files being produced by Qt. So far I've moved the .ui file into src.

Could someone make a overview or something to help my confusion?

Hey i asked that question.

From my understanding, once you have done the gui in Qtcreator, you have to integrate it to ROS.

I am finding the integration tough too, especially if you cant open the Qtcreator in ROS workspace.

from Qtcreator, there are three types of files: headers(.h) , sources(.cpp) and forms(.ui).

the header files should be put in the include folder.

the source files and forms should be placed in the src folder.

Did you figure out how to integrate it?
