qmake "-spec win32-msvc" for 64 bit?

davecotter

in my build settings for my 64bit app, i see this: -spec win32-msvc. is that... normal? i'm having trouble building and wonder if this is the problem

davecotter

thanks! yes it was mixing some other dll incorrect bit depth!

See https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/windows-building.html#step-3-set-the-environment-variables on how to select the correct architecture.

@davecotter said in qmake "-spec win32-msvc" for 64 bit?:

Yes, it's normal. The win32 spec is for both 32 and 64 bit (and yes, the naming is silly).
The bitness for MSVC toolchain is set up by the right compiler selection in the kit settings and that's x86 for 32bit an amd64 for 64bit (again with the silly naming).

So the problem must be somewhere else. What's the error?
