Don,

My setup is different than yours. But, I'll describe my experiences in case any of them are helpful to you.

I started with Qt 5, but discovered that the Windows J qtide was put together with Qt 4.8.4, so I dropped back to that version.

I am running the Win7 MS SDK compilers and I do not have the full MS Visual Studio, only MSVS 2010 Express, so I was initially concerned that I would not get anywhere, since some of the doc stated Express was not supported.

But, I followed the steps here:

Windows:          http://qt-project.org/doc/qt-4.8/install-win.html

and I was able to run the Qt install process successfully, which built Qt and all of the Qt examples. The full Qt 4.8.4 build ran for about 18 hours.

Most of the Qt examples worked fine, except for a few that complained that I did not have a fancy enough video card.

I manually added the Qt bin directory to my path and I am able to manually build Qt apps using qmake and nmake.

Good luck,
David Mitchell

I'm stumped. I have QT, GIT and GCC64 installed. When I try to run a QT
example I get the error message, "QT Creator needs a compiler set up to
build. Configure a compiler in the kit options." I go to options and put
GCC in for the compiler including the path to the C++ exe (running in
Windows 7). But I still get the same error.

What am I missing?
