QT Installation problem
-
I have been developing an application on Mac and Windows for some time. I have been developing updates on Mac for the past few months. I compiled the application on my Win7 installation (virtual machine running through Parallels) and got the following error:
C:\Qt\Tools\mingw530_32\i686-w64-mingw32\include\iphlpapi.h:38: error: 'PMIB_TCPTABLE2' was not declared in this scope ULONG WINAPI GetTcpTable2 (PMIB_TCPTABLE2 TcpTable, PULONG SizePointer, WINBOOL Order); ^
This is a MinGW source file which I haven't touched. I figured my installation got corrupted so I uninstalled QT entirely and re-installed it. However, I still get the same error.
PMIB_TCPTABLE2 is declared in include\tcpmib.h inside the the precompiled define
#if (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0600) ...PMIB_TCPTABLE2 definition... #endif
I put poor syntax inside the #if and no error was generated so it seems that _WIN32_WINNT is < 0x0600. My target is Desktop PC, I want Win7 & Win10 support.
Any ideas on what could be wrong in my set up? I did upgrade parallels recently but not the windows image, which I have used in the past for this purpose.

@mgreenish What exact Qt version do you use?

Hi, MinGW sets _WIN32_WINNT to 0x0502 (Windows 2003 Server and later) in it's header file _mingw.h. (Means a hello world.c compiled with MinGW should be able to run on Windows 2003 Server and later.)
PMIB_TCPTABLE2 perhaps does not work on Windows Server 2003, could be the reason for #if (_WIN32_WINNT >= 0x0600) i.e. requires Vista or later.
Try #define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0600 at the top of your program, then MinGW will not change it.

_WIN32_WINNT 0x0600
Good idea. I set the following at the top of my main:
#ifdef Q_OS_WIN #define _WIN32_WINNT 0x0600 #endif
But that didn't work. But I found the definition for _WIN32_WINNT in include_mingw.h and changed it from 0x502 to 0x600 and that worked.
Just odd that I have never run into that in the past...
Thanks for clarifying what the default means !!

Just as note: this is QtCreator version not Qt. They are not the same.
