Qt Creator and other tools

Just create 2 .pro files (you can put options that are shared in a .pri file and use include()) and adjust $$DESTDIR and all directories that will contain intermediate files that are different between the two versions:
@
MOC_DIR
OBJECTS_DIR
RCC_DIR
UI_DIR
QMAKE_MAKEFILE
@

Tnx All for the help!

Have you checked the "documentation":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/qtcreator-2.2/creator-project-generic.html?

Is there something in it that is not clear? How can we improve it?

I would suggest to have a lib dir somewhere in your build tree and specify $DESTDIR for the lib accordingly. Then you can be sure that the lib will be in that directory, regardless of the platform. Also, I case you didn't know, you can use CONFIG += ordered to make sure your the subdirs are built in the order you specify (i.e. you lib is built first).

Good deal! Be sure to change the title of the thread to add [Solved] if everything is working now.

You might be able to do something using "this":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qmake-environment-reference.html#customizing

Well done!

thanks for sharing.

Could you edit your title and add[Solved] in front of it?

Hmmm I have this view enabled but I don't see it :/

Moved to Tools category.

I had the same problem and finally got a solution to it.

I have both commercial and opensource version of Qt 4.7.3 on my PC.
I compiled the commercial version by myself using such the follow command:
configure -debug-and-release -platform win32-msvc2010 -commercial -fast -nomake examples -nomake demos
the opensource version is already compiled.

I tried to build my project but the QT_NO_DYNAMIC_CAST flag in Makefile breaks it. However it works fine when i build it with the opensource version.

At first thought it was a problem of qmake.exe because i copied the qmake.exe from the opensource version into the commercial version and it worked just ok!

I tried to recompile qmake.exe and failed.

finally i compared all the content between the two version and find a file named qconfig.pri in /mkspecs/.
i copied it into the commercial version and the problem's gone.

the file content is as below:

CONFIG+= debug shared stl exceptions rtti mmx sse sse2
QT_ARCH = windows
QT_EDITION = FullFramework
QT_CONFIG += release debug zlib png accessibility qt3support opengl s60 ipv6 script scripttools xmlpatterns multimedia audio-backend declarative native-gestures svg minimal-config small-config medium-config large-config full-config
#versioning
QT_VERSION = 4.7.3
QT_MAJOR_VERSION = 4
QT_MINOR_VERSION = 7
QT_PATCH_VERSION = 3
#Qt for Windows CE c-runtime deployment
QT_CE_C_RUNTIME = no
#Qt for Symbian FPU settings

Hope this will help anyone who has the same problem.

Link boost & curl libraries in your pro file if you already build them on Windows 7.

EDIT: FIXED
I decided to post this in the event that this comes up again. Currently (as of today's date) 4.7 is the stable tree.

Download the Qt 4.7-Stable Source Run qt-qt/configure Select the Open Source version, and agree to the license after reading it. Use configure tool to enable databases. Build with @gmake@ and @gmake install@
*EDIT: Also soft link from your built plugins to $QTDIR/Desktop/Qt/473/gcc/plugins/sqldrivers/

Obviously there isn't the src tree to build the drivers in the first place from the SDK .bin file I originally downloaded. If someone else can chime in that it SHOULD be there and I was right to think the documentation applied to the SDK download from the main website I'll file the proper bug report. If I was wrong and the src download is treated different I'll shush up, but only having a SQLight driver is pretty limited.

Thanks Qt devs for a great product, I think I'll stick to building from sources. I appreciate you making them easily available on gitorious! For people who don't know where to find them, click "Qt 4.7-Stable":http://qt.gitorious.org/qt/qt/trees/4.7-stable

Thanks Tobias :)
I wish I could contribute, unfortunatelly I'm very noob in C++ :(.
Anyway great work and keep it up guys ;)

bq. Windows then searches for the DLLs in the following sequence:

The directory where the executable module for the current process is located. The current directory. The Windows system directory. The GetSystemDirectory function retrieves the path of this directory. The Windows directory. The GetWindowsDirectory function retrieves the path of this directory. The directories listed in the PATH environment variable.

I just found out that the "/" is replaced automatically to corresponding OS' pathseperator; here ""
I just wrote my header1-3.h files into the CMakeList.txt, which is located in path1/project2/ by adding there:

@

list all class files which implement Q_OBJECT

QT4_WRAP_CPP( ${PROJECT_NAME}_MOCS
OldHeader.h
Header1.h
Header2.h
Header3.h
)

@

Forgot to mention one thing. To instruct qmake to not do anything Qt-spcific, you can/should also add:
@
CONFIG -= qt
@
to your .pro file

Thank you very much Vijay, it is a good test.

What it is needed is to define the (theme) property once and apply it in many different loader instances. The alias assignement do the opposite as I have interpreted: you assign a alias for every instance, that is what I avoid. It is possible that I have misunderstood this method ?

The real solution I missed probably is Component.onCompleted { ... } This can be the reason of the parameter is not passed correctly.

Whishes uttered on this forum will probably get lost. If you want to submit a feature request, use "Jira":http://bugreports.qt.nokia.com instead.
