Problem with "C++ GUI Programming with Qt4, 2nd Edition"

[LonelyZero]

Hey, folks.

So i'm trying to go over Qt with this book "C++ GUI Programming with Qt4, 2nd Edition". Two first exercises worked well with my Qt Creator 4.5.1 and mingw32 but then i got into first "big" program. Qt went apeshit with like 40 errors or something. What am i doing wrong? I guess it's version compatibility problem.

That's example from the book.

this book was written for with Qt4 and you use Qt5
therefore you have to add to your finddialog.cpp file
the include statements:

#include <QLabel>
#include <QLineEdit>
#include <QCheckBox>
#include <QPushButton>
#include <QHBoxLayout>
#include <QVBoxLayout>

You will likely also have to edit (slightly) code that creates QMainWindow instances to use Qt::WindowFlags instead of whatever was used in Qt 4. That was so long ago I've forgotten.
