And you need Qt 5.8 or later for that. QMake defines in its “mkspecs” which compiler to use. That’s why the mkspec is important. Qt Creator tries to set the correct mkspec automatically for some common cases based on the compiler you set in the kit, but it can’t do it for all cases. Qt 5.6 doesn’t have a mkspec for clang-cl, so you need to either create one yourself, copy one from somewhere else (they are usually not self-contained though), or use a Qt version which has one. > Br, Eike > > -- > Eike Ziller > Principal Software Engineer > > The Qt Company GmbH > Rudower Chaussee 13 > D-12489 Berlin > eike.zil...@qt.io > http://qt.io > Geschäftsführer: Mika Pälsi, > Juha Varelius, Mika Harjuaho > Sitz der Gesellschaft: Berlin, Registergericht: Amtsgericht Charlottenburg, > HRB 144331 B > > _______________________________________________ > Qt-creator mailing list > Qt-creator@qt-project.org > http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator -- Eike Ziller Principal Software Engineer The Qt Company GmbH Rudower Chaussee 13 D-12489 Berlin eike.zil...@qt.io http://qt.io Geschäftsführer: Mika Pälsi, Juha Varelius, Mika Harjuaho Sitz der Gesellschaft: Berlin, Registergericht: Amtsgericht Charlottenburg, HRB 144331 B _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list Qt-creator@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
