Hello world,
I'm on Windows 7 (yes, still
) running a freshly installed CB 17.12. Console applications can be compiled flawlessly. The QT 5.12.0 is also freshly installed. Now I want to write a Qt application.
When creating a QT 5 project, I'm being asked
"Please select the location of Trolltech QT5. This is the top-level folder where Qt5 is installed. To help you, this folder must contain the subfolders "include" and "lib"." The default folder is to E:\MyProgrammingDir\Qt\5.12.0\mingw73_64 . This is contradictory, because that's not Qt5's top level folder. But indeed, there are "include" and "lib" folders contained.
Question: why is there obviously a complete MinGW 64 bit compiler in Qt5 (the mingw73_64), while at the same time my CodeBlocks compiler is the 32 bit GCC 5.1.0? My compiler toolchain executable points to E:\MyProgrammingDir\CodeBlocks\MinGW . Shouldn't CodeBlocks and Qt5 use the same compiler?
If I try to compile a Qt5 project, the compile process stops giving "This file requires compiler and library support for the ISO C++ 2011 standard."
How can I fix that?
Do I have to ask in a Qt forum? I do think that the problem is getting CB and Qt work together, that's why I start in this forum.
Thanks guys.
Harald
