Hi! i just want to build project from github - https://github.com/DreamSworK/UDP-Logger.
I have installed VS2015 and QT creator (5.10.0) also i install cmake (3.10.2) utility.
But if i load project in creator i got errors: The CXX compiler identification is unknown
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:2 (project):
The CMAKE_C_COMPILER:

cl

is not a full path and was not found in the PATH.

i run vcvarsall.bat but this not resolve the problem. I did not see CC or CL in environment variables.

Hi and welcome to devnet,

When installing Visual Studio, did you select the C++ components ?

@SGaist First time i have not install this components (Only c#) . And i have install it after installation QT creator but this does not resolve the problem.

Which version of Qt did you install ?
Did you check the Kit in the settings ?
Did you do a full rebuild of your project ?

@SGaist Did you mean QT creator version ? 5.10.0
Does QT need to be installed separately from QT CREATOR?

No, I did mean Qt. Qt Creator is the IDE, and the current version is 4.5.

Yes it does, Qt and Qt Creator are independent projects.

When using Qt's online/offline installers, both are proposed together.

@pistoletov In your Kit Qt version is not set. Did you install the correct Qt version (for VS2015).

@jsulm now i instal QT version 5.5.1 from qt-unified-windows instaler. Where i can find which qt version suitable for vs2015. Does 5.5.1 ok for vs2015?

When you select the Qt version you want to install, the name of the compiler it supports is indicated.

@SGaist i just need add only this component for win7 x 64 and VS2015 (in red)

Yes, if you want to build for 64bit, otherwise you will need then one just above.

@SGaist Hmm... the same errors with installed qt...The CXX compiler identification is unknown
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:2 (project):
The CMAKE_C_COMPILER:

cl

is not a full path and was not found in the PATH.
what i need to do next? May be you advice to install another lightweight bundle ( Mingw?) for build simple project. It s really hard to build first project with QT-))

What warning do you get if you hover the yellow triangle ?

Can you build a default qmake application ?
