Qt Integration with Visual C++ 2010 Express Edition, how do I do this correctly?
-
[quote author="DSav" date="1308858917"]Visual Studio support of C++ is not so impressive comparing to C# or VisualBasic.NET. So, even if you’re familiar with Visual Studio, using of Qt Creator for development with Qt is, possibly, better approach.[/quote]
I am certainly not someone trying to defend MS products by all means. However, I am using them for long time now. My experience is limited to C++ there. I have started recently with Qt Creator on Linux. So far, I have not found a very good reason to switch completely. By saying so, I have to admit it is probably a part of laziness behind. The philosopies are different and I struggle quite a bit to get things done in Qt Creator.
However, my personal recommendation is, if you have to get used to both IDEs anyhow, I would choose Qt Creator.

you first should start with Qt documentation. Express versions does not support add ins, you can read the restrictions on the microsoft pages.Qt should be created on command line (you also need da different commandline when using 64 bit), after configure call simply nmake.
To work with express VS 2010, you have a lot of work to configure the pre runs, i.e moc, uic, and so on. It is better to work with the qmake pro-files, and use express as editor.... VcProjX creating by hand is a hard working job...So as koahnig wrote, Qt Creator is better for you. You can still use VS 2010 compiler, for debugging you need to install debugging tools from Microsoft.... And Qt Creator has "VS Addin" included.....
Or buy VS Studio 2010 professional, than you are able to work with VS Addin..
