Unsolved QtCreator on Vista
-
http://doc.qt.io/qtcreator/creator-os-supported-platforms.html
Qt Creator does not support Vista. That said, had anybody manage to get it running on Vista? I am getting "could not find or load the qt platform plugin windows" if I run v4.2.1 , it is probably because of shipped DLLs require W7 but I have not too much clue. -
@_PIB You could try to build QtCreator on Vista.
-
@jsulm can I do it without compiling Qt, using distributed binaries?
https://github.com/qtproject/qt-creator - following this manual now. Running
qmake qt-creator.pro && mingw32-make
gives me:
Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: core core-private network script gui xml
Something is terribly wrong.
-
Same problem with bundled examples: I cannot qmake them because qmake does not know a single module. What's going on?
-
Hi,
What exact version of Qt are you using to compile Qt Creator ?
On an unrelated note, Windows Vista has reached EOL in april this year.
-
@SGaist QT5.8.0 with bundled MinGW.
I mean, I enter some random bundled QT example folder like "chip" and I cannot qmake it because qmake does not know any modules. -
Might be unrelated but where did you install Qt ?
-
@SGaist no spaces in path. :D
-
Can you build a default application from Qt Creator ?
-
@SGaist I cannot run QtCreator, that's where it started.
-
What errors are you getting when starting Qt Creator ?
-
@SGaist only one fatal error: "could not find or load the qt platform plugin windows in "" "
-
Can you check the plugin with Dependency Walker ?
-
@SGaist there were missing exports in IEFRAME and SHLWAPI. After updated IE to IE9 there are missing exports in IEFRAME and MFPLAT and missing whole IESHIMS thingy.
-
I will now try to install optional updates because I found out that there might be updates which affect those DLLs.
