gamepad not known in QT

DanAm

I try to run my qt program to connect to the joystick, but QT does not debug "gamepad" where i put Qt+=gamepad in .pro file and I get the error: Unknown modules in QT: gamepad?

Hi,

Which version of Qt would that be ?
On which platform ?
How did you install Qt ?

DanAm

QT version is 5.5.1 and I am working in Linux.

Then you should upgrade your Qt version - QtGamepad was added later: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/whatsnew57.html

Thanks for your reply. My Qt is version 5.5.1, it seems that gamepad has added in version Qt 5.
Do you think that reinstall and install Qt could help?

@DanAm As @Christian-Ehrlicher wrote: QtGamepad was added in Qt 5.7, just see the link he posted!
You will need to use Qt >= 5.7
