Open With -> Mark Down Edit_View doesn't work

[nkh-lab]

Spent a several hours to compile this stuff, due to lack information in README about:

• fetching externals like git submodules;
• required cmake version greater than 3.12;
• used QTCreator should be with plugin dev stuff (not a part of Qt pack).

And after compiling and running QTCreator with given plugin, preview window is not showed (by clicking on *.md file "Open With -> Mark Down Edit_View") and when you try to open preview in "Split Side by Side" mode QTCreator totally crashes with segmentation fault:

Hi nkh-lab,

Sorry for the late response.

fetching externals like git submodules;

In the example commands I have already documented it with git clone --recursive -j8 https://github.com/erdinc09/MarkdownEditView.git

required cmake version greater than 3.12;

I fixed it, sorry. To 3.18.3 version.

used QTCreator should be with plugin dev stuff (not a part of Qt pack).

It is already documented in QtCreator plugin build commands, but I also updated the readme with all commands. Please see the how-to-build section. Does it seem OK now?

And after compiling and running QTCreator with given plugin, preview window is not showed (by clicking on *.md file "Open With -> Mark Down Edit_View") and when you try to open preview in "Split Side by Side" mode QTCreator totally crashes with segmentation fault:

I have published a release for 4.15.2 version. I tested it in MacOS, it works. Have you installed the dependencies which is explained in how-to-install section?

Also, there is a GitHub action which builds the plugin for three major platforms. Please see the build_cmake.yml.

The releases are generated from this GitHub action.

Can you please try the new version 1.5.0? There was a linking problem in linux. I just fixed that.
