    I ran a qt example project and an error appeared :-1: error: You cannot build examples inside the Qt source tree, except as part of a proper Qt build. What does it mean?

      Hi @Freebirds,

      it means you should copy the example to a proper writeable folder (e.g. below your home folder) and compile & run it from there.

      That is, e.g. what Qt Creator does when you select an example from the welcome screen.

      Regards

      Qt has to stay free or it will die.
