    Yes the dumpmachine is the armv5tl-montavista-linux-gnueabi.

    My embedded Qt build was not autodetected. Maybe that because it's installed in /opt/qt4.7emb or it's a cross-compile host - can the QtCore lib still be inspected for across architectures?) I've removed and re-added my embedded Qt 4.7.2 build version - it was built with the the toolchain listed above, but still no mapping show up between the 4.7.2 embedded build and the toolchain.

      Just add your Qt version manually and you should be fine with that.

        Tobias: Do you know if the changes for 2.3 will help with the CE problem I was having?

          I do not know yet, but looking into that issue is on my todo list for 2.3.

          I just hope I can get my hands on the wince tool chain for some testing:-)

            If there's anything I can do to help let me know. I should be able to clear a couple of days between now and the end of July to help if needed.

                [quote author="Tobias Hunger" date="1309415562"]Just add your Qt version manually and you should be fine with that.[/quote]

                I had already added the Qt version manually, but I can't build with that version because when build is selected, Qt creator pops up that the version has no toolchain. I've added the toolchain manually too, but there's nothing allowing me to assign that manually added toolchain for that Qt version. Actually there is a field in the project build options to select a toolchain, but when a toolchain is selected, the entry comes back blank. Is there a workaround that would allow me to build?

                    @digikata: I haven't found a work around for this. I just keep an old version of Creator kicking around to do my CE builds.

                      Anyone have a solution for this? I'm experiencing the same issue (Windows CE as well).

                        I'm working on a fix for it, but it's not my day job so the work is going slowly.

                        The current state is that I'm doing changes after a merge request so it might get in soon.

                        If you're interested I can point you to the git repository I'm using and you could build a working version from that. Not ideal, but it might get you started...

                          Thanks Steve. Yes, if you could point me to the git repository you're using that would be great. For the time being I'm stuck using command line to build Windows CE apps. :/

                            Any update on this? We just switched to using Qt for our Windows CE 5 development, and I was hoping to be able to use Qt Creator as our IDE for this, instead of Visual Studio.

                            But Qt Creator (2.3.1 as well as 2.4 beta) fails to find a tool chain for my Qt 4.7.3, built against our Windows CE 5 SDK using Visual Studio 2005.

                              Sorry for no updates lately... The current situation on my fix for the problem is that I've got a version of creator working with WinCE 5 (and 6) tested with Visual Studio 2005. I spoke to Tobias at Dev Days and had an initial code review which I have just finished the updates for.

                              The next step is learning the new Gerrit system to try and get my changes included... I'll try very hard to get this into 2.5.

                                That's great news. If it's possible for you to somehow make a patch available, e.g. by attaching it to your bug report, I'd be happy to try it out.

                                  No problem, @fonzi337 has already been trying some of my earlier attempts. I'll put a link to my Gitorious clone up here when I've got the current version working.

                                  I'll also try and find somewhere to put just the binaries to save you having to compile the whole thing.

                                    My latest changes have been merged into the main branch of QtCreator which should mean that it will be included in 2.5. If you're interested you could try compiling your own version of Creator from the master repo.

                                    Sorry for the delay, but I had real problems trying to get my head around Git / Gerrit etc. so have messed up several times trying to get this in.
