Description

Qt is a cross-platform application and UI framework. Using Qt, you can write applications once and deploy them across many desktop and embedded operating systems without rewriting the source code.

MinGW command line tools

  • Download QT 4.5 Framework only for MinGW
  • Run the exe and install QT 4.5. Depending on your MinGW version the installer may complain about a wrong w32api.h header file - proceed still.

Set CMake paths

  • set environment variables (for MinGW and Visual C++) and add the bin directory to PATH
set QTDIR=C:\QT\4.5.0
set PATH=%SQTDIR%\bin;%PATH%

If you can run 'qmake' then everything is set up for CMake to find Qt.
