I am new to QT, I am currently using QT creator 5.7 and QT 4.0.2 . I tried building the Hello world simple application using QT widgets. below is the code in .pro

QT += core gui

QMAKE_CXXFLAGS += -std=c++11

greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION,4):QT += widgets

SOURCES +=
main.cpp

All librarly is getting included while compiling, I am not sure why Undefined error is thrown. Please help to understand this issue

Hi
Can you try a default project?

File -> New Project -> Application -> Qt widget project

and see if that run.

Hi

I tried that, and shows the error "error: [ui_widget.h] Error -1073741515"

Ok
Something wrong with your install.

Qt 4.02 is extremely old. :)

Windows or linux?

Hi

I am currently installed QT5.7 for Windows and the compiler I installed is GCC 4.9.1 for QT. I got this from the QT links

Hi
" currently installed QT5.7 for Windows and the compiler I installed is GCC 4.9.1"

Something NOT right. GCC= mingw ?
Normally Qt comes with mingw compiler (on windows) and no extra installes needed.
This one has all working out of the box
