. The steps for a successful integration of Qt in Visual Studio IDE. By default the open-source Qt does not come with integration with Visual Studio IDE (which is only available in the commercial editions of Qt). Follow the steps in the document for a successful integration.

vs express can't install plugins ,does it?
I have updated the pdf document to cater for the visual studio express editions where the plugin cannot be installed...
cheers :)
Thank you very much for your tutorial :)
It works perfectly for me, I already have a Qt app running.
BTW, I see examples and demos are not compiled, is that normal? If I compile them, they work fine.
Just a suggestion, you could add some information about "configure" parameters.
For instance, I only want to create an opengl app, so I used:
configure -no-sql-sqlite -no-qt3support -platform win32-msvc2005 -no-libtiff -no-dbus -no-phonon -no-phonon-backend -no-webkit
Thanks for help.
I got a complant. Why bother downloading the QtSDK if you're just going to recompile it again. Just download the source. And why not just use Qt-Creator if you can't install plugins since the express editions don't support plugins. Qt-Creator is far better than that broke piece of shit VS.
yes u can compile from the source also. As for using with express editions, i have updated the way to overcome installing the plugin.Quote:

like i am using Qt with my Ogre Project. Since my ogre project is already established there in VS, i need to bring Qt over there.
You do know that you can do that also in Qt-Creator ;). At least you get code complete in Qt-Creator unlike Visual Studio ;)
I must use VS cause some of my libs only work with microsoft compiler, but not mingw, so, I can't use Qt Creator.
Thanks.
You do know that depending on your platform specs set when you compiled Qt. Qt-Creator "reads" that and actually uses visual studios compiler in Qt-Creator. And I've read they are even working on getting visual studio's debugger working in Qt-Creator
I don't understand you very well. Do you mean you can use vs compiler with Qt creator?Quote:

After the release before the releaseQuote:
Indeed, time does fly. Today we released Qt Creator 1.1.0 together with Qt 4.5.1, VS Add-in 1.0, and an updated Qt SDK 2009.02 that contains the new Qt and Qt Creator. Get it from the downloads page!
I wrote a lot about the upcoming QtCreator 1.1 already in this blog post on the release candidate, but since you might not be inclined to actually read that as well, I’ll just take the chance to repeat myself ;). These are some of the highlights:
- Completely reworked editor split mechanism
- Improved function argument hint (since a lot of you reported problems with that one!)
- Improved open documents view (sorted, single-click, close buttons)
- Added experimental support for generic Makefile based projects
- Added signal/slot editor to the form editor
A lot of things are not mentioned above, please have a look at the more complete list of interesting changes.
Thank you all for the last minute feedback. If we didn’t manage to put your favorite feature in, don’t despair (and please don’t get your flame-thrower out), the next release will not be far away. For example we are working full-steam on the cdb (VS debugger) integration. If you want to check out what is going on, have a look at the snapshots (we are in the process of getting them up again. edit: available now), or at the source repository.
