Qt 4 for Windows CE : Visual Studio 2005 integration

**pscheven** · 18th March 2008, 14:15

Hello.

I'm a student in computer sciences and I'm a beginner in Qt programming.

I would like to develop Windows Mobile Pocket PC applications with Qt, so I installed Qt 4 Beta Open Source Edition for Windows CE.

I would like to know if that version can be integrated in Visual Studio 2005 because I can't find a GUI designer or the Qt menu in Visual Studio even if the examples projects are correctly built and run with the emulator under Visual Studio.

I also tried the commercial - preview version but I still don't have any integration with Visual Studio even if I have access to Qt Designer and other tools I didn't have in the open-source version.

Thank you.

Patrick Schevenels.

The Visual Studio integration is part of Qt Commercial Edition. Qt Open Source edition is capable of creating Visual Studio project files since version 4.3.2 but it does not come with Visual Studio integration.

Thank you but I've also tried the commercial-preview version of Qt 4.4.0 for Windows CE and I have the same problem (no integration with Visual Studio : no Qt menu and no designer in Visual Studio even if I have the Qt designer outside Visual Studio in the commercial version).

Don't know if it helps but the VS integration is a separate installation package. Re-check the download link you received by e-mail.

With the 4.4.0 commercial preview version for Windows CE, I didn't receive any mail.

It is not the same as with the 4.3.4 version for Windows (I tried that version and I received a key and could choose Visual Studio integration directly in the installer and it worked but with that version, I can't develop for Windows CE, so I need the 4.4.0 version).
