Qt4 with VS2003

[loladiro]

Ok, sorry, I thought you were trying to build configure yourself (looked like it from the errors you posted).
Do you have perl in your PATH?

[JediSpam]

This is what i currently have in PATH under system variables
@
%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\QT Lite\QTSystem;C:\Program Files\Shoreline Communications\ShoreWare Client;C:\QtSDK\mingw\bin;C:\QtSDK\QtCreator\bin;C:\QtSDK\Desktop\Qt\4.7.3\msvc2008\bin;

Here is a screen of my "Qt4" and "Tool Chains". I have only VS2003 installed at the moment

what do i need perl for?

[loladiro]

Qt uses it within configure:
http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/requirements-win.html

[giesbert]

if you download the SDK, you can't build qt from there. To build your own qt, you must download the source zip file from "here":http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.3.zip and then build it.

[JediSpam]

Alright let me try this out and i'll let you know! thanks again

[JediSpam]

just ran configure and it works like a champ! my next instruction was to "Just run mingw32-make" and now i'm seeing tons of errors after trying to run that. I have perl installed and qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.3

Why do you run mingw-make if you want to build with MSVS 2003?
MSVS 2003 uses nmake, not mingw-make

[JediSpam]

Yep thats true! I re-ran configure and now it prompted me to use "nmake". It's currently running without errors we'll see what happens when it's done *crosses fingers

[JediSpam]

Alright nmake built correctly! Took a few hours but no errors. Tried to run one of the examples in QT and this is what I'm getting:

[giesbert]

So, did you add the newly build Qt to the Qt versions of QtCreator? If yes, did you add it for the project (or just delete the pro.user file and reopen the pro project in creator)?

[JediSpam]

I just added it to the "Qt Versions" and that's all i've done.

Do i need to do the second thing you mentioned?

[giesbert]

if you had your qt project before in creator, it uses another qt build.
So I suggest, close creator, delete teh .pro.user file (or some similar names) and reopen it. Then you are asked, which Qt version to use. Select your msvs 2003 build....

[JediSpam]

Got it working! Thank you very much. I realized I have multiple instances of QT and had a lot of confusion going on.
