    Hello,
    I've downloaded Qt5 but have problems with crashes in creator(bug report submitted). I've not had problems with crashes in the stand-alone 2.6.2 version of Creator. But I've not been able to properly set it up.
    here's what I've done so far, I've only edited the default entry.
    Are there any guides for this?
    Thanks

      The setup looks good to me. Which problems do you have with it?

        I get an error that says ":-1: error: Qt Creator needs a compiler set up to build. Configure a compiler in the kit options."

                Apart from setting up kits in the IDE settings you need to have one of them selected in your project ( Project tab -> build&run -> Add kit).

                There are tons of docs and guides on this. The starting point would be "here":http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/qtcreator-2.6/index.html and "here":http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/qtcreator-2.6/creator-configuring-projects.html

                  Seems Qt Creator detected the ABI of the mingw compiler wrongly. Change it manually to 32 bit.

                    Thanks, I tried this and i didn't have all the required things installed. For some reason, i feel more comfortable making cross-platform apps with mingw though, so i went back to trying that build.

                        I'm glad you solved the issue :) Created https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTCREATORBUG-8789 to make it more trackable ...
