Error on installing qt sdk on mac 10.6.2

goetz

Before going to macports, I recommend to either install the SDK parts manually. That's mainly Qt Creator and the framework libs itself, both are available as precompiled binaries on the download pages. Optionally one can go with building the framework libs manually, that's not a hard task. Macports brings in a big bunch of unnecessary stuff which you do not need to develop using Qt. XCode is a prerequisite for all three options (SDK, single binaries, macports).

Yeah, you are right, Volker! :-)

(That's why I underlined that it is very time consuming and a lot of effort.)

Looks like kitten got Qt Creator already up and running, from what I saw in another post.

kitten

dear how can i do that?

mkae

Do as Volker said above: install everything manually. Avoid MacPorts. :-)

BUT, I'd recommend to upgrade Xcode to something more up-to-date. Your version 2 seems to be ancient. Xcode4 just came out, but version 3.2.6 should be fine too.

i was download libs and debug and qt creator seperately but i can't set toolchain and other options
how can i run a successfull qt to compile my code?

mkae

I am sorry, but my knowledge of setting up QT manually is zero, since I just use it via MacPorts. I hope that Volker can give you further advice.

kitten

i wad download and install these but i can't configure it
qt creator mac opensource 2.2
qt mac carbon open source (both )

kitten

is there anyone can help me?
it's urgent

goetz

Calling something "urgent" is most likely to slow down answers (cf. to http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html please).

Qt Creator automatically detects the toolchain for you. So it seems you do not have set up XCode properly. Please check this. Open a command line window (Terminal.app), type in "gcc -v" and look if that works. If not, your XCode setup is messed up.

hi i'm sorry for my bad english,because i am not an english man
i think the xcode install correctly my gcc works well i can compile a rough c++ code by gcc
i think it is because the gcc is old i can't run qt creator correctly

mkae

As I've written above: If you can, consider upgrading your Xcode!
(Sorry, that I can't be more helpful in this matter.)

Upgrade to the most recent version of the XCode 3.x series.
