compilation err in qt test program

hi All,
I am beginner to qt and trying to run the below progam. however i am getting below err.qobject.h:117:5: error: expected parameter declarator main.cpp:1:1: note: in file included from C:\Qt-Workspace\untitled1\main.cpp:1: main.cpp:1:10: note: in file included from C:\Qt-Workspace\untitled1\main.cpp:1: QApplication:1:10: note: in file included from C:\win-builds\include\qt5\QtWidgets\QApplication:1: qapplication.h:45:10: note: in file included from C:\win-builds\include\qt5\QtWidgets/qapplication.h:45: qcoreapplication.h:48:10: note: in file included from C:\win-builds\include\qt5\QtCore/qcoreapplication.h:48: ---------------------------------- 15:44:21: Running steps for project untitled1... 15:44:21: Configuration unchanged, skipping qmake step. 15:44:21: Starting: "C:\win-builds\bin\mingw32-make.exe" -j4 C:/win-builds/bin/mingw32-make -f Makefile.Debug mingw32-make[1]: Entering directory 'C:/Qt-Workspace/build-untitled1-Desktop-Debug' x86_64-w64-mingw32-g++ -Wl,-subsystem,windows -mthreads -o debug\name_of_the_app.exe debug/main.o -lglu32 -lopengl32 -lgdi32 -luser32 -lmingw32 -LC:/win-builds/lib -lqtmaind -lQt5Widgetsd -lQt5Guid -lQt5Cored c:/win-builds/bin/../lib64/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.8.3/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lqtmaind c:/win-builds/bin/../lib64/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.8.3/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lQt5Widgetsd c:/win-builds/bin/../lib64/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.8.3/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lQt5Guid c:/win-builds/bin/../lib64/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.8.3/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lQt5Cored collect2.exe: error: ld returned 1 exit status mingw32-make[1]: *** [debug\name_of_the_app.exe] Error 1 Makefile.Debug:77: recipe for target 'debug\name_of_the_app.exe' failed mingw32-make[1]: Leaving directory 'C:/Qt-Workspace/build-untitled1-Desktop-Debug' Makefile:34: recipe for target 'debug' failed mingw32-make: *** [debug] Error 2 15:44:22: The process "C:\win-builds\bin\mingw32-make.exe" exited with code 2.

Is this because the sample code is valid for qt4 and I am running qt 5 ?
Please help me to fix the issue. so that I can continue my learning.thanks in advance.

@ravi2k18 This code builds perfectly fine for me with Qt 5.12 MinGW.
What Qt version do you use?"c:/win-builds/bin/../lib64/gcc/x86_64-w64-mingw32/4.8.3/../../../../x86_64-w64-mingw32/bin/ld.exe: cannot find -lqtmaind

Why do you use MinGW x86_64 4.8.3? Supported version is 7.3. -
i used offline installer to install qt5 qt-opensource-windows-x86-5.12.0.exe
looks like my qt creator is taking some other mingw installation dir. why so ?? when i have installed qt with dedicated mingw for this.my QTdir is C:\win-dir while mingw 7 is installed in C:\Qt\Qt5.12.0\Tools\mingw730_64\bin
do i need specifically set the environment variables?thanks

i furthur update my build setting to refer mingw 7 but no luck

@ravi2k18 Why don't you just install Qt using online installer (Qt Maintenance Too if you already installed MinGW using online installer)? This is usually working out of the box (Qt + MinGW).
If you installed Qt in C:\win-dir then why do you call C:\win-builds\bin\qmake.exe ?!
Also - is your Qt for MinGW 64bit? -
Looks like u r using different qmake than what is coming with qt install. According to ur installed qt qmake shud be from c:/Qt\Qt5.12.0\Tools\mingw730_64\bin\qmake
But I see a different directory. Can you show your build settings ? Do you see directory :\win-builds\lib with all the qt DLLs ? Looks like your mingw is 64 bit. So you have corresponding libraries ? Do you see any red mark for your kit in buld & run configuration ?
