[solved] Build Qt3 app in Qt Creator 2.5

[alan73]

Hello!

I'm trying to compile my Qt3-based app in Qt Creator 2.5. I succeded in adding Qt3 qmake in "Build&Run" settings, but got this error while trying to build project:

@Starting: "/usr/share/qt3/bin/qmake" /home/user/my_project.pro -r
***Unknown option -r@

This option "- r" didn't exist in Qt3. And I can't change "Effective qmake call" introduced in "Projects->Build Steps":

@qmake my_project.pro -r@

Is there a way to repair this and in common build Qt3 app in Qt Creator 2.5?

Hi,

Qt Creator was not meant to handle Qt 3. What you can do however is to remove the qmake step and a custom step calling qmake with the correct list of arguments.

Hope it helps

On a side note, if possible you should really port that application to at least Qt 4.8.6
