Please help me to solve this error! Here is my packages installed :

qt-opensource-windows-x86-android-5.8.0 
JDK.7.Update.80.x64
apache-ant-1.10.1-bin 
Android-NDK32-r10-windows-x86_64
Android.SDK.Release.v24.4.1.Windowsinstaller_r24.4.1-windows
what is '-fstack-protector-strong' ? I think this prevents Qt Creator from continuing !

Hi and welcome to devnet,

You should try setting the Android gcc to 4.9.

Thanks you for your answer!
How can I set the Android gcc to 4.9?
How can I find out my current gcc version?

Thanks in advance !

AFAIK, in the Kit for Android.
