Qt 5.0.2 how to set kit and compiler
-
hi and thanks for reply...
i just installed qt 5.0.2 ...but when i want to test and run qt default projects or a new project file ,it throws me an error that says : “Qt Creator needs a compiler setup to build.Configure a compiler in the kit options…”.
i understand that must install or manage a compiler or kit for chosen platform but as i try to set it in build and run options , it again throws same error and ... can't manage the compiler!!!
i want a perfect tutorial for compiler management ... -
There actually are instructions on how to set up compilers and kits in the Qt Creator manual. Not sure whether that counts as a perfect tutorial, but definitely as a good manual.
Which compiler do you want to use for your projects? Is it installed already? What is the full name of the Qt package you installed (the compiler needed is part of the name)? Do these two match up exactly?

last week i downloaded MSVC version for windows ...
"Qt 5.0.2 for Windows 64-bit (VS 2012, 500 MB)"but now i want to change my question...
i use win 7 64 bit and want to compile an application for windows and also for android platforms...
and all i want to know is that which version and creator is suitable to download and work... -
Ok, so we get the first useful piece of information: You are indeed using a MSVC Qt flavor.
You need MSVC 2012 from Microsoft to work with that version of Qt. Do you have that installed?

thanks...Tobias Hunger
no i don't but i have installed visual studio.net 2010 ...
as i know , some compilers will install automatically when we install microsoft visual studio.net but
do you mean that i must install microsoft MSVC 2012 and then try to identify it for qt compiler manager and then run my application?
also i am looking for a perfect tutorial for managing compilers and ... in kits,qt versions,compilers tabs to build and run a project...thx -
As I said before: You need the same version of the same compiler that was used to build Qt. So, yes, you will need MSVC 2012 with that version of Qt. You could also download Qt built with MSVC 2010 though.
-
Installing the compiler like downloading visual studio (or whatever else contains the compiler, I don't use windows too often;) and installing it.
Creator will pick up MSVC installations automatically. You might need to check the kits and set the compiler there though.
For android you will need to install the Android NDK and related stuff as well as a Qt version for android. There are howtos in the wiki about how to set it all up.

hi beginners
i have solved my problem...
for solving the compiler trouble and adding it for beginners in Qt field,i must say that by installing microsoft visual studio.net 2012 ,this problem will be solved...and you can export and run your application by qt 5.0.2 64bit msvc 2012 version...so bear in mind that it's better to install visual studio.net beside qt msvc version...because it automatically installs all of compilers and kits that qt needs in 64bit msvc version...good luck.. -
Also make sure to install the Microsoft debugging tools if the debugger does not work. They used to come as a separate package a while back.
Alternatively you can just install Qt built with mingw: That comes with a compiler and debugger as part of the package.

Ubuntu 13.04., QT5.0.2. problems with gcc correct startig up (in Ubuntu the newest vertion gcc 4.7 installed). In "Parameters" -> "compiler" in auto detecting there is not any compiler and there is not possibility to define it, only at next submenu. And as a result after trying to compile usual console c++ application "Hello World" we see the message : g++ error : not find a file... (something about it)
