After many experiments with combinations of 4.7,, 5.1, mingw, vs2012, and assorted add-ons and updates, I finally reached the conclusion that the examples were never going to compile consistently, and so there would be little I could learn on the Qt system I had. So I uninstalled everything. I left the mingw and the VS 2012 I put into Win 7 64it thinkpad I have, and I removed everything else. I am now starting again by downloading Qt 5.1 vs2012 (again).
My goal is to be able to mess around with mobile phone apps and widgets that work cross platform, and learn a bit more about programming in the process.
The new install installed, but there is no link to a compiler. The options in Tools—Options-Build and Run—Compilers include miniGW, GCC, Clang, and “Custom” I had been hoping to find Visual Studio 2012. I need to find out what Clang is.
