Yes that would definitely speed up things and guess this wouldn't ask too much work.In the future that would be awesome to get closer to Coliru and Godblot; get rid of qmake and just set the cpp compiler in a drop down menu.The issue with QTC is that you can only switch between kits. Being able to just switch the compiler from the editor would be nice allow to both check compiler capability and sometime get better error messages. > Best regards,André > > Am 22.12.18 um 12:12 schrieb Jeandet Alexis: > > Hello, > > > > I was wondering if this would be totally stupid to have a mode in > > QTC > > were we could code in a single source with no Build System setup? > > I always go to websites like coliru, godbolt, wandbox,... to do > > some > > tests(test concepts, see if I can template something,...) because > > this > > is so convenient to just start writing code without any setup.
