qtgui4.dll error in visual c++ 2005

[Comptrol]

All the tools are built from Qt's sources, so if you compiled the sources, the tools are there as well.

Thanks again, I have found the binary files. However, clearly, regretfully, unfortunately... I only have linguist and assistant ; designer isn't here! can i cry for this??



So, what am I supposed to do now? remaking whole source file , which took approximately 15 hours!!!

[wysota]

I don't know what you exactly did, so it's hard to provide a solution You might cd into tools/ and then call nmake sub-designer but it's a long shot - you must have done something unusual that designer wasn't built, so there is a good chance there is a reason for that

all i did was to first wrote
"configure"

and then

"nmake" as it is stated here

Ok, I stop trying to use tools on MSVC, can I use them on MINGW at the same time? so that i will just carry the source code MSVC afterwards? btw, I really appreciate your effort to help me.

[wysota]

Did you pass any options to configure? Did it tell you what are the final features it is going to build into Qt? Did you get any error messages after calling nmake? Please provide details.

now i run nmake again and I got this result with error

Good... now we are getting somewhere. You are missing the libraries for sure. I guess you'll have to recompile at least some of the code... Start by running configure -help, read what options you can pass to configure and rerun configure with those options. At some point you'll get a list of enabled and disabled features. Please paste that list here.

before running configure -help i copied the missing file,qtdesignerd4.dll, from BIN to LIB since other similar files sizes are equal. however this time i get similar error and that file i copied to BIN got deleted.

I know what configure -help returns I told you to read it and rerun configure with the switches of your choice and then after some time, you'd get a list of features Qt will be compiled with.

I know what configure -help returns I told you to read it and rerun configure with the switches of your choice and then after some time, you'd get a list of features Qt will be compiled with.

1)why, why am i supposed to make a selection out of that list. I mean why not just "configure " enough on its own? and how do we know the selection i would make have my program work without error? and i am newbie to qt, what kind of choices can i have? any ideas? :S

2) will i just run configure or nmake -distclean before that as it is stated in manual?

"Note: If you later need to reconfigure and rebuild Qt from the same location, ensure that all traces of the previous configuration are removed by entering the build directory and typing nmake distclean before running configure again."

wow i think I don't have some SDK but I have microsoft platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2, and I am using windows XZp/sp2. could this be the reason of the error :S and today is sunday and sunny!!!

[wysota]

This is the SDK for DirectX, not some general SDK. It's perfectly fine that you don't have it. The configuration process seems fine, although you might want to use a switch or two - disabling webkit or patternist will reduce compilation time greatly and if you don't need those modules, disabling them would be a good idea.

Now I suggest you recompile Qt from scratch - unarchive the source bundle again, run configure with the switches of your choice and then call nmake. Watch out for errors and if any occur, paste them here - but the first error only, not the whole compilation log please

Hi again, I will do you tell me to do definitely but I installed MinGW as well. does that make any problem for installing source code of MSVC?

ps: i couldn't make it work in mingw either!

[wysota]

Please do as I said - you'll save the time of us both. Remove everything, unzip the source, run configure <your options go here> and then nmake.

In doubt please consult our wiki, there is an article there describing how to make things work.

[QUOTE=Comptrol;73318]Hi wysota, as i told you before, i appreciated your help a lot. So I have tried to minimize my posts in order not to keep you busy; you didn't need to emphasize our posts could be burden for you; I am aware of this. And honestly, I really prefer not to ask for help[there are other documentations anyway, such as wiki and forum pages]. however , since I spent a few days of mine installing QT, I thought it was high time to demand a help from a pro. Although I still appreciate your help, warning people as if they were kinda burden to you is really rude of you. So, I would rather not take your precious time anymore. you can keep it for other things as you stated above. Thanks one more time for your great help

Although I still appreciate your help, warning people as if they were kinda burden to you is really rude of you.

I never meant anything like that. Let me rephrase the statement - "you'll save your time and our diskspace". If I didn't want to use my time by answering such questions, I simply wouldn't answer. Moreover I wouldn't be here and there is a good chance so wouldn't that site, at least in its current form.

Looks like your compilation was successful. You'll be probably having problems because of white spaces in the installation path ("Documents and Files"), but here it shouldn't be an issue. Please check what resides in the bin and lib directories. You should have all the tools and all the libs there (dll files in bin and lib files in lib). I think you built Qt in debug mode only (because you didn't pass -release or -debug-and-release switches to configure), so all the libraries should have names ending with "d". Is that correct?
