Installing QT 4.7.x for VS2010
had some issues installing QT on windows with vs2010 so I thought I’ll share the solution that worked for me.
I’m using win7 64 bit , vs2010, qt 4.7.1
What do I need ?
qt add on for visual studio (qt-vs-addin-1.1.7.exe)
qt open source distribution (qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.1.zip)
Installation Process
- download and install qt add on for visual studio
- download qt open source distribution
- create qt directory (i used C:\Qt\4.7.1×32\)
- extract the zip contents into previously created folder (extract files & folders not the root directory named qt-everywhere-opensource)
- open visual studio command prompt named Visual Studio Command Prompt (2010) use the command prompt with this explicit name, there are other command prompts for 64 bit using them eventually will fail the process.
- run the following commands
enjoy,
d.

After following this procedure with 4.7.2 source, when I then try to set the Qt version (VS2010 menu Qt>”Qt Options”) I get the following error:
This Qt version is not compatible to your current Visual Studio (Qt builds VS version: 1500, current version: 1600)
I then tried compiling everything from a 64-bit command prompt with the same configuration, and I got the same error.
What’s wrong?

HUGE thanks for this. While there’s plenty of forum posts out there with people saying “build it with VS2010″, this is the only one I found that helps give a “no-brainer” walkthrough for someone who is inexperienced with such building processes.
