Qt4 -vs6-w2k

[dKoder]

MinGW installed in "c:\mingw". I put an entry in the autoexec.bat to include it in the path. But whats confusing me is the error states that g++ is not recognized as a command. See below:
What can I do to check that?


Qt" -I"debug" -I"." -I"..\..\..\Qt\4.2.1\mkspecs\win32-g++" -o debug\main.o main
.cpp
'g++' is not recognized as an internal or external command,

[jacek]

What can I do to check that?

Check whether you have g++.exe in C:\MinGW\bin.

[dKoder]

No sir. G++.exe is not there. I check the MinGW site and I didn't see anything that looked like a winders version.

[jacek]

No sir. G++.exe is not there.

What about mingw32-g++.exe? Which file did you download and install from MinGW site?

[dKoder]

This one mingw32-make-3.80.0-3.exe.

[jacek]

This one mingw32-make-3.80.0-3.exe.

That explains everything. This file contains only the make program, not the whole toolchain.

Try this: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/m...inGW-4.1.1.exe

[dKoder]

Well... I installed the right minGW file, corrected the path in the Autoexec.bat file, and I still have the same problem.

The error states that g++ is not recognized... Do I need to rebuild the debug libraries?

[jacek]

I installed the right minGW file

Where did you install it? Did it install g++.exe there?

Do I need to rebuild the debug libraries?

Start from installing the compiler.

[dKoder]

Here we go again...

I uninstalled QT and minGW and then reinstalled the Windows OpenSource version of QT. Then I ran the (Build Debug Libraries) which produced the follow:

Qt is now configured for building. Just run mingw32-make.
To reconfigure, run mingw32-make clean and configure.

What is moc? Do I need to install the as well?

Frustrated to no end!

[jacek]

I uninstalled QT and minGW and then reinstalled the Windows OpenSource version of QT. Then I ran the (Build Debug Libraries) which produced the follow:

I've just installed Qt 4.2.1 Open Source and ran "Build Debug Libraries". It looks like everything works OK on my system, so there must be something on your system that blocks the build. Maybe you have run out of free disk space?

You can always recompile Qt using the configure utility.

What is moc? Do I need to install the as well?

No, moc (meta-object compiler) is an utility that comes with Qt.

[dKoder]

So what are my options now?

It's late in the game do I punt or pass?

[dKoder]

Well I deleted QT & minWG and reinstalled everything. I ran configure (contents of configure.cache are as follows)

-platform
win32-g++
-debug-and-release
-plugin-sql-mysql
-plugin-sql-psql
-plugin-sql-sqlite
-no-qt3support
-qt-style-windows
-saveconfig

Then I ran the (Build Debug Libraries). After 30-45 minutes or so I'm greated with the folowing errors.

I have a Linux server with both MySQL & Postgres running. I use them both daily, almost, and I have a copy of sqlite on my local machine. During the install the only database QT finds is sqlite and therefore it only builds driver for that database. The first question that comes to mind is why in the sam hill should QT can one way or another whether it can find databases before it will build the drivers? That makes absolutely no sense to me! Anyway, I change to the src/plugins/sqldrivers directory and attempt to build the MySql driver and I get the following errors:

Then I try the postgres driver and I get a similar lenghty error.

I have been trying to get QT to install since last Friday and I don't feel I'm any better off that when I started. Will someone show some conpasion and just shoot me?

[gfunk]

Take a timeout! What are your other options? java? wxWidgets?

If you can spare it, and have experience with Visual Studio, get the commercial edition of Qt w/ the VS integration, it'll be wayyyy easier to use.
