@Hamed
well just use older qt then.
let me check.
there is version that match 2008.

https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/4.8/4.8.6/
is for 2008.

Sorry for asking this, it's off topic, Qt4 is stable?

So if you let me, I don't make question solved yet, maybe there is some other issue.

@Hamed
yes qt ~~4.8.6~~ 4.8.7 is very stable but very old.
but still valid.

but
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5.6/requirements-wince.html
says active perl is needed. u have it ?

It should work with 5.6
Sorry wince is a bit unknown to me :)

Yes I installed active perl and active pyton and ruby at latest version, still nothing changed.
As I said README file says vs12 or later, but docs says vs08 is valid. :-?

mrjj

@Hamed
well 2005/2008 seems the supported version. wince is pretty old so that makes sense.
let me see if google can help.

mrjj

oh btw did u install service packs for 2008 ?

mrjj

oh, also , it seems to be a commercial options.
So it must mean you have a license.
So you can get dedicated direct help if you contact them. \o/

I don't know, I installed vs08 professional and there was wince standard sdk and I installed that too, I wrote some code for wince in vs08 and they worked fine, but I like to use qt for that.

if you tell me what service pack I should install more I will find that.

mrjj

@Hamed
SP 1 at least.

It's commercial option? really? I have opensource one.
The docs doesn't say this is for commercial version only!

mrjj

@Hamed
no, sorry. it just seems like that. It seems optional :)

I checked and yes, SP1 installed.

mrjj

@Hamed
then i guess 5.6 is better to use.
I assume that 5.8 uses type_traits and vs 2008 didnt have back then.

OK I will download Qt5.6.
If that didn't work I will use Qt4.8.
If none of them work I will continue posting state here.
Thank you for your time and help.

mrjj

@Hamed
np. i did read the docs a bit more careful and it seems that 5.6 is the version for wince and
it must be 2008 as wince died in later versions.

And yes by all means do come back if it wont compile.
There might be other users that use wince still.
Such a cute little windows :)

Hamed

And another thing I remembered to say, I already installed and have qt5.7 on my device.
Could this be the source of problem? Should I delete this one or I can have them both?

mrjj

@Hamed
You can have as many as u want.
Just make sure u use the correct one.
Normally its not an issue or source of problem but im old school so if you dont need it. delete it :)

Hamed

@mrjj I'm need it but not more than this one, for the last solution I will do that.
Thank you again.

Hamed

@mrjj I downloaded Qt5.6 source (low speed internet) and the README file is different and it meets my requirements (C++ compiler supporting the C++98 standard) , but the strange part is I'm getting the following output :

+ cd qtbase
+ C:\Qt2\Qt5.6.0\qtbase\configure.bat -top-level -platform -xplatform wincewm70customsdk-msvc2008
Unknown option wincewm70customsdk-msvc2008
Invalid option "-xplatform" for -platform.
See the README file for a list of supported operating systems and compilers.
Invalid option "wincewm70customsdk-msvc2008" for -xplatform.

Any Idea?
