Latest release of Qt does not work with XCode 8.2.1 on macOS Sierra
-
OK. Rolled back and started over.
Re-downloaded the Xcode and CLT installer from the Apple Dev site. Ran the CLT install. Ran the Xcode install. Ran the Sudo xcodebuild -install. Agreed to the license. Use the Qt MaintainanceTool to update. Ran it to get a new MT, then ran the MT again to get the updates. Ran Creator to check version/build. OK. 5.7.1. Run Creator. Open an existing project. Android and Desktop kit available. No iOS. Quit Creator. Run Xcode. Do nothing. Exit Xcode. Run Creator. Now iOS kit are available. ?? Build a desktop version.

Looking…
@PSI_lbc From the error message:
"The API level set for the APK is less than the minimum required by the kit.
The minimum API level required by the kit is 16."
You should set higher API level version. Your Qt Kit requires at least 16.
After this change run qmake and do a complete rebuild. -

Or use Gradle, in any case updating the NDK to r10e would be a good idea.
-
In Creator > Preferences..
JDK Location:
/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/Versions/CurrentJDK/HomeNot a JDK location.
I guess The OS upgrade to Sierra did not include a Java update.. Does Qt require the newest Java version as well?
Just noticed the "Download" icons to the right of the "Devices" screen.. DOH!
-
NDK, there are more recent version that r10e but there's a bug in the gcc from latest 13 series. See here for more details.
For the SDK, use the latest.
OK. I'm a dummy. Where is the latest Android SDK? The Qt link takes you to a page that offers the Android Studio..which I downloaded..but cannot find the SDK.
Is it hidden in the Android Studio app bundle?
Current error preventing moving forward..
Qt Creator needs a compiler set up to build. Configure a compiler in the kit options.Suggestions?
-
Get just the command line toolsunder the Download part of the Android Studio page.The compiler is provided by the ndk so if you pointed it properly it should detect it.

Thx. Deleted the Android Studio bs. Downloaded just the SDK tools..tools_r25.2.3-macosx.zip
Made sure the path to the tools folder was set. WahLah! Android now builds and deploys to device. Only minor bug was a visual StatusBar “style” issue. Easily fixed.
Now working on the iOS part of the equation. I have a Apple Developer Account. I have an active License. I’ve created and downloaded the certs and device provisioning profiles. The app builds but does not deploy to a device..signing issues. Xcode knows the cert and provisioning profile exist. Both are valid. I have tried removing the Cert and Provision from the Mac KeyChain and re-downloading both. In Xcode, I have tried Automatic and Manual provisioning..both give the same error when trying to deploy.

The 5s iPhone that is the “target device” is running OS 9.2. Could this be the issue? I’m stumped.

Tried the fix you mentioned. It helped, but I was still getting:
