Why Qt libraries 4.8.4 for Windows (minGW 4.4, 317 MB) not include minwg 4.4?
-
Does this mean that for us who can't or don't want to use the VC++ compiler, we have to compile Qt from source using the latest MingW compiler?
I've searched high and low for somewhere to download MingW 4.4 without success.
If this is so, the MingW packages you have up seem kind of pointless.
Why is the old Qt SDK containing everything not still made available in the interim until a new fully integrated SDK is available?
Is it not possible for MingW 4.4 to be made available as a separate download until such a time?

Nice thanks. I was almost tempted to try my hand at compiling from source. The links on the pages where the instructions should be don't work:
"http://qt-project.org/wiki/Get_The_Source#c5655294df78acbcb9ac6fdb87cbb620":http://qt-project.org/wiki/Get_The_Source#c5655294df78acbcb9ac6fdb87cbb620

I'm in the same situation ...

Download "Qt libraries 4.8.4 for Windows (minGW 4.4, 317 MB)" from http://qt-project.org/downloads , run the installer
Download "Qt Creator 2.6.1 for Windows (52 MB)" from http://qt-project.org/downloads , run the installer
Open Qt Creator, configure it by going to:
Tools -> Options -> Build & Run -> Qt Versions -> Add
Tools -> Options -> Build & Run -> Compilers -> Add
Tools -> Options -> Build & Run -> Kits -> Add
Start writing programs :)

back from work i do it all ;)tkx a lot JKSH[/quote]You're welcome!
The above instructions were for Qt 4.8.4 and MinGW. If you want the latest Qt 5.0.0 (with Visual C++ 2010, not MinGW), do this:
Download and install Windows SDK 7.1 (32-bit) from http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/1/0/F10113F5-B750-4969-A255-274341AC6BCE/GRMSDK_EN_DVD.iso (it's ~570 MB)
Restart your computer
Download and install Qt libraries 5.0.0 for Windows (VS 2010 406 MB) (This already includes Qt Creator 2.6.1)
Start writing programs

[quote author="kenton" date="1357655610"]On Qt , programs source code is different if compiler is different ?
(MingW vs VC)Or it's the same until i remain on the Qt / C++ statement ?
(i don't know if this question have sense...)[/quote]Source code is the same, no matter which compiler you use.But, if you compile your program with MinGW, your Qt library (or your Qt DLLs) must also be compiled using MinGW. That's why they have different library downloads for different compilers.

Hi, i followed the MinGW way and all work fine !!
I specify here the paths setup because i lost a bit of time for it :
Tools -> Options -> Build & Run -> Compilers -> Add -> C:\MinGW\bin\gcc.exe
Tools -> Options -> Build & Run -> Qt Versions -> Add -> C:\Qt\4.8.4\bin\qmake.exe
Tools -> Options -> Build & Run -> Kits -> Add -> autodetectK.

Hopefully I'd saved Tdm MinGW 4.4 installation:

[quote author="kenton" date="1359492100"]I start to develop successfully onto a windows environment .
Now i'm preparing the Mac environment .
Where can i find MinGw 4.4 for Mac Osx ?
Tkx[/quote]
MinGW is for creating Windows programs. Do you want to cross-compile for Windows, or create Mac programs? -
Then you don't want MinGW :) Just use Mac's compiler
-
Tkx qxoz & JKSK ,
i downloaded xcode today but my girlf. denied me to access her Mac :)Anyway i'm at my place on Windows and i tried to give to a friend my release.exe file for a try ...
but the .exe ask for mingwm10.dllHow can i obtain a release indipendent from the environment ?
(linking with static libraries?) -
mingwm10.dll is found in your MinGW's \bin\ folder -- just copy it into your release.exe directory (you'll probably need a few other DLLs from there too)
Yes, linking to static libraries will let you do that, but you'll need to rebuild Qt statically
