    This makes a lot of sense now, I'll start working with Qt creator (and a different API when I'm not using Qt) and see how I do with that.

      [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.

      Vote the answer(s) that helped you to solve your issue(s)

        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..

          Why did they add prepared libraries for VC2005 and VC2008 to the QtSDK-Installer and not VC2010?
          Any reason?
