Unsolved Computer falls asleep while Qt Creator is building a large project

Perhaps the first thing would be to lobby for such a method being available from Qt!? :)
Yes, if there isn't one already.

hen Qt Creator is unlikely to make such a call!
Why not? You can still do platform specific calls if available. In this case QtCreator Windows build would call this Windows specific API.

Then that is "semi-sad", because if Qt Creator thinks it's worth doing whatever --- in this case, setting up for no-sleep --- and finds it has to make a platform-specific call, then the devs might think "other people might want to do this, so we'll make sure there is a Qt library support for it so others can utilise it".Of course it's not an absolute requirement. But it's an indication this might be worthwhile. I semi-hope (yes, within reason!) that the whole of Creator can be written using only Qt calls, not platform-specific ones. IMHO.
