Trouble with Qt and Visual Studio setup

[Chronos]

I think I've figured out my problem. I am not aware of how to create a .pro file. Does the qmake -project command automatically create a .pro file in some specific directory or do I need to specify further information like the name I want the file to have ? If so, how would I tell the VC++ command prompt my specified name ? Do I need to create a .cpp file first in order to create the .pro file ? In what directory would the .pro file be in ? Please, could someone just list out the steps I must go through to create a Qt project ?

Correct me if I'm doing this wrong:
(In VC++ command prompt)

1) qmake -project "I hit enter"
2) qmake -t vcapp "I hit enter"

Is that really all I am required to do ?

Please, could someone list the steps that they go through when creating a Qt project on Windows ?

I receive a warning message in the prompt that more than one version of Visual Studio was found and that It's falling back to my oldest version, the current release. I trust this is no problem ? Could it be that this appears because I installed the 2008 windows SDK ?

Looks fine. I suggest reading the qmake manual

Hi,

qmake -project only -->going to create .pro file based on current directory. If it is a small application then no problem. For larger application(which consists many folders and sub folders of code) manual editing of .pro file is better.


qmake -vcapp will create .dsp file. opening that file in Visual studio will create .dsw file.
.dsw is similar to "project file " for visual studio.
