Good Day,

I am trying to compile the QT4 tutorial 1 simple example "Hello World" with the latest MinGW compiler(version 5) but it does not seem to work.Can someone help me or give some advice. suspect it has to be the MinGW compiler.I am new to QT so please forgive my ignorance.

BTW: I am using the open source QT 4

I have attached a screenshot of the error in the zip file, for the best description.

Come on, in a doc?
Anyway, you most likely don't have the debug version of the Qt libs.
The solution is either to compile Qt in debug mode or compile your app in release( remove debug from CONFIG, in the pro file).

Sorry about that i did not mean for the post to come over like that.My computer is acting up.

Anyway the error is

C:\MinGW\bin ................................mingw32\bin\Id.exe : cannot find -iqtmaind

I suspect it MinGW.

Again i do apologize for that last doc post.

I know what the error is and I also suggested a solution.
Is your Qt installation compiled in debug mode too?
