Hi,

is it just me or this is heading into the wrong way, or at least into the 
opposite direction of the market. Most IDE are now free, even the embedded 
world start giving IDE away:
 xCode is free
vs code is free
Atollic is free
STM32 TrueStudio is free
...

People are leaving pricy IDE behind, Keil anyone? less and less used. Starting 
to pay for an IDE like QtCreator, seem like you will only get less users toward 
Qt or people might be temped more and more to use VisualStudio as an IDE of 
choice.

This is my personnal point of view on the subject,
My 2 cents,

developers


Hi,

Correct. All users need to have commercial license. It is not allowed for part 
of the team to use commercial and part use open-source. Even though Qt Creator 
is great, it can feel odd to pay for full Qt license and only use the Creator 
IDE. 

We have been thinking about selling Qt Creator separately, but so far no 
decisions made on this. 

Yours,

        Tuukka

    Hi,
    
    Situation.
    
    A company has a few developers with Qt Commercial subscription who
    write applications in Qt for iOS.
    There are many other developers, who work on other projects and don't
    use Qt libraries.
    They talk to each other and sometimes even work on the same code.
    
    Is it still possible for the developers who don't use Qt libraries in
    any way, use Qt Creator IDE for editing and debugging?
    To be on the safe side, company plans to prohibit usage of Qt Creator
    IDE for all employees.
    I reckon this is a popular solution.
    If I understand correctly, Qt even sells a special option to ban all
    company IP addresses for open-source installer.
    
    But is it really so?
    
    Regards,
    Vyacheslav
