Welcome to the Babel wiki!

The Babel project workspace is organized as a standard Qt application with a clear separation of source code, UI definitions, resources, and build outputs. Below is a detailed breakdown of its structure:
Project Root Directory ( d:\Documents\qt\Babel )
Core Project Files :

  • Babel.pro : Qt project configuration file defining build settings, dependencies, and file inclusion.
  • Babel.pro.user : User-specific project settings for Qt Creator.
  • main.cpp : Application entry point containing the main() function.
    Translation Files (for internationalization):

  • Babel_ar_SA.qm / Babel_ar_SA.ts : Arabic (Saudi Arabia) translation files (.ts for editing, .qm for runtime).

  • Babel_es_ES.qm / Babel_es_ES.ts : Spanish (Spain) translation files.
  • Babel_fr_FR.qm / Babel_fr_FR.ts : French (France) translation files.
  • Babel_ru_RU.qm / Babel_ru_RU.ts : Russian (Russia) translation files.
  • Babel_zh_CN.qm / Babel_zh_CN.ts : Chinese (Simplified) translation files.
    Source Code Files :

  • LetterConverter.h / LetterConverter.cpp : Core translation engine implementing alphabet conversion logic between 15 different writing systems.

  • mainwindow.h / mainwindow.cpp : Main application window implementation, handling UI interactions and utilizing LetterConverter .
  • aboutdialog.h / aboutdialog.cpp : About dialog implementation displaying version information and license details.
    UI Definition Files (Qt Designer):

  • mainwindow.ui : Main window UI layout definition.

  • aboutdialog.ui : About dialog UI layout definition.
    Resource Files :

  • res.qrc : Qt resource collection file referencing application assets.

  • app.ico : Application icon.
  • logo.rc : Resource compiler script for Windows icon. Build Directory
    build\Desktop_Qt_6_9_1_llvm_mingw_64_bit-Release :

  • .qmake.stash : QMake build cache file.

  • .qtc_clangd : Clangd language server configuration.
  • Babel.ini : Application configuration file.
  • Makefile , Makefile.Debug , Makefile.Release : Build system files for different configurations.
  • debug\ : Directory containing debug build outputs (empty in this structure).
  • release\ : Directory containing release build outputs (empty in this structure).
  • ui_mainwindow.h , ui_aboutdialog.h : Auto-generated UI header files from .ui files. Key Observations
  • 1.
    The project follows the Model-View-Controller (MVC) pattern with LetterConverter as the core model and MainWindow as the view/controller.
  • 2.
    Internationalization support is comprehensive with 5 languages currently implemented.
  • 3.
    The build system is configured for Qt 6.9.1 with LLVM MinGW 64-bit compiler.
  • 4.
    The application is configured for Windows (evident from .ico and .rc files).
  • 5.
    All UI elements are defined in separate .ui files, allowing for easy design modifications without touching code.
    This well-organized structure facilitates maintainability, internationalization, and cross-platform development typical of Qt applications.
