Thanks, but after doing qmake, this happened:

A couple of warnings - nothing to worry about. What happens after running nmake?

Is your project compiled?

By the way, use preferably directories without spaces for your projects, very important!
Ex.: c:\Dev\Qt_Projects\This_is_a_very_bad_game
Never use spaces, compilator might show you some errors.

Well, it's never compiled succesfully since everything in ths thread's happened... (Not to be rude.)

why not using QtCreator? There is no problems with it, because already configured for qt projects....

The problem is it doesn't seem to be friendly with what I'm trying to do.

Do you have your old vcproj file stored somewhere?
If you want to add a lib in MSVS, use the MSVS way, even for Qt libs:

open project settinbs, go to linker --> input page and add the file

goetz

Open the Visual Studio command shell and run:

@
cd c:\path\to\your\project
qmake -project
@

Then install the Visual Studio add in (link mentioned earlier) and restart VS, if you did not before.

Then open Visual Studio.

Then open menu Qt / Qt Options and check if your Qt version is listed there. If not, add it!

Now create a new solution, open Menu Qt / Open qt project file (.pro) and select the newly created .pro from the first step.

Your setup is basically complete now.

OR

Create a new solution, add a new project and select one of the Qt4 project templates (Qt4 Application most likely) and just add your source, header and ui files.

In both cases, it might help if you start in a fresh new directory, where you copy in just the .h, .cpp, .ui files before calling qmake -project or creating the new Qt4 project.

Well, I made a pro, except it still got the same error after I added the CONFIG += help

However, I noticed that the pro was in place of the vcxproj, a.k.a. the Visual Studio Solution. Also, I noticed that the pro already contained CONFIG += [a bunch of stuff] help [another bunch of stuff] This seems to indicate that the CONFIG += help... was already there...

So, it doesn't seem to be the problem. Any more help? Thanks for all the help so far, BTW. (Not to be rude.)

Thnk you,
M260

If you just change the .pro and do nothing else, the VS project is not changed. What about the steps mentioned in my previous comment?

Well, I've already done all that - unless you really think I should just start a new project & re-add everything... (Not to be rude.)

I would try to start from scratch in a fresh, empty directory. Just copy the sources (h, cpp, ui). Make a directory without spaces in it to eliminate this problem. Then run qmake -project and import the .pro with the VS addin.

Be sure you have setup the Qt versions in the addin!

1st of all, sorry it's taken me months to reply? Anyways, Volker, can I just have the actual files from when you 1st successfully compiled it as described in your 1st posst? I know I won't be able to use Visual Studio.

goetz

Sorry, I did not keep the files for that long.

It's okay, I think I might've found something else I can do. Than you, though!
