How to compile for older versions of qt

People will probably need specifics. If you're using a feature only introduced after 5.6 then it's SOL, don't that feature or don't use that v framework.
Is there a message you're receiving to know it's an issue whereby it "requires version 5.9"? I often have different Qt versions installed side by side and usually only lose them when I either need space or if I'm happy the latest is performing 100%

@totallykvothe said in How to compile for older versions of qt:
it still requires version 5.9
What exactly "requires" version 5.9? Is it during compiling? Is it when you start the app? You really need to be more specific. You could for example post errors you get.
-
It compiles just fine, but at runtime it says that it requires Qt version 5.9, which is not installed.
-
@totallykvothe How about a screenshot showing the error message?
The exact text is actually helpful, when you translate what is wrong for us - we lose important context. That puts us down to probing questions and while we could guess all day, I won't.
-
@totallykvothe I don't see how it can require 5.9 if you built it with 5.6.
Are you sure you only copied source files and not any binaries built with 5.9?
