Qt 4 VS addin problems

jwrieden

i have Vs2012, in windows 10, with an admin account. I installed qt-vs-addin-1.2.3-opensource.exe, using admin rights.
when I booted VS2012.

I get an error message:
couldn't register all QT4VS addin commands: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Qt5VSaddin.AddinInit.registerCommands()

and the QT5 menu option is greyed out.

please can someone help me.

What version of Qt did you install ?
Sounds like you use Qt4 but try to use the Qt5 plugin.

Does Creator work ?
I mean, can you make a default project GUI and run it?

hi, it tried, Qt 5.4.1, and 5.5.0

Addin:
qt-vs-addin-1.2.3-opensource.exe
qt-vs-addin-1.2.5.exe

Qt creator:

qt-opensource-windows-x86-msvc2012-5.5.0.exe

qt-opensource-windows-x86-msvc2012_opengl-5.4.1.exe

qt creator opens, builds and runs

this machine is a clone of a another machine, and on that machine,

the only difference in the other machine is windows 7 and this one is windows 10

we have

VS20112, Qt 5.4.1, and Vs addin 1.2.3

@jwrieden
Ok so Qt installations works and
it seems like issue with the Actual plugin.

As far as I can read it seems
1.2.3 should work
https://forum.qt.io/topic/50606/msvc-2012-with-qt-5-add-in-1-2-4-cannot-build-new-projects/2

So I not sure what is the issue.

You must use vs 2012 ?

Why are you using 1.2.3? just download and install 1.2.5 from https://www.qt.io/download-open-source/?hsCtaTracking=f977210e-de67-475f-a32b-65cec207fd03|d62710cd-e1db-46aa-8d4d-2f1c1ffdacea#section-2
