No option to install "Qt For Automation" in the online installer

phreaker

According to the documentation here: http://doc.qt.io/QtForAutomation/qtautomation-install.html, there should be an option to install "Qt For Automation" via the qt online installer. I created an account (this one) and used it for the installer, but the option won't show up. I tried with the MaintenanceTool after installing and with the online installer again after ordinary install without an account. I'm interested in trying thq QMQTT module.

@phreaker
it also says that it's based on "Qt for Device Creation" which is only available commercially.
So my guess is when you don't have a license in for it in your account it will not be displayed either.

Hi @phreaker,

I'm interested in trying thq QMQTT module.

You can build this from source yourself. We had this request several times here in the forum and a search should give you some good results.

The modules that collectively form Qt for Automation are listed at http://doc.qt.io/QtForAutomation/qtautomation-overview.html
