Trying to Install Qt 4.5 on Vista32 with MSVC++ 2008 Express: and Failing

[GregMalick]

Aloha and thanks Boron.

Took forever to compile the environment - but it's working.

At least I have the helloWorld example to work.
Now I can seriously start to learn how to use Qt.

Next step for me is to learn how to incorporate QtDesigner UI files with MSVC++
That and really start looking at the docs.

I sincerely appreciate your help in getting me started.

Aloha

You must create rule for uic.exe tool :
- in Solution Explorer push RMB on root
- from menu select Custom Build Rules
- create rule and attach them to UI files

hi,
"configure -debug-and-release -no-qt3support -no-webkit" helped me pass the configuration and nmake steps without fatal errors, but now i get the same error (u1077) when i try to build a project, even though its preview seems fine. what should i do now?

thanks

What is the FIRST error? Can you paste the exact compiler command and the resulting error, please?

[meozeren]

i was having the fatal error u1077 message during the configuration, but i overcame it with your configuration command. now when i try to build a project i get the message that i posted below, but before reading that, you should know that i can build projects from visual studio's comman line using "qmake -o Makefile hello.pro" then i type "nmake". so it's ok if you dont post a solution. here is the error message:

Configuration unchanged, skipping QMake step.
