QtCreator on Vista

[jsulm]

@_PIB You could try to build QtCreator on Vista.

[_PIB]

@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.

[_PIB]

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.

[_PIB]

@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.

[SGaist]

Might be unrelated but where did you install Qt ?

[_PIB]

@SGaist no spaces in path. :D

[SGaist]

Can you build a default application from Qt Creator ?

[_PIB]

@SGaist I cannot run QtCreator, that's where it started.

[SGaist]

What errors are you getting when starting Qt Creator ?

[_PIB]

@SGaist only one fatal error: "could not find or load the qt platform plugin windows in "" "

[SGaist]

Can you check the plugin with Dependency Walker ?

[_PIB]

@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.

[_PIB]

I will now try to install optional updates because I found out that there might be updates which affect those DLLs.
