    You're talking about my previous remark right? I mean the 64 bit MSVC build kit in QT Creator is broken. see here:

    D'oh the screenshot no longer works...I''l have to fix that

      Then also a silly question but, when you installed Visual Studio 2015, did you install the C++ stuff ? It's not selected by default.

        I just did the default install, which didn't install the compilers; I knew because they didn't show up in QT Creator. I followed the instructions as here in comment 3 for question 1 in order to install the compilers. Do you think I need to install more C++ components?

          Did you check in Qt Creator that it detects the compilers ?

              So that part is good. What about the Kits ?

                Here 'tis... I am getting the error message from the compiler so it's obviously running. Just the library linking that's freaking out. I could pass verbose to the compiler to see if it gives more information.

                  Then it looks like you are trying to setup a 32bit debugger on your 64bit Qt.

                    The selected kit for the project is the first (default) one though.

                      I'll try verbose to see if there's any more info. If not I might just witch to Visual Studio. Any major functional trade-offs to using Visual Studio vs QT Creator? I know about the plugin.
                      Thanks!

                        Qt Creator is usually simpler to use and setup.

                          Update: I tried adding line below with success, program compiles now. Any ideas as to why QT Creator is being so ornery? Thanks again for all your help.
