How did u try to run ur application ?
I mean from the steps of qmake -project ....

[pallavi Boyapat]

i write my application by opening visual studio in that i opened a new project in that new projects i go for qt projects and in that one i selected a Qt application.I entered a new name for that project and I opened a .ui file using solution explorer. and I added some controls from tool box and I am trying to run this application, i am getting this error message.

I guess you are using commercial edition, since you are getting option of Qt Application.

The normal approach I follow is -
1. Go to the directory containing code.
2. qmake -project (this will generate a .pro file)
3. edit the .pro file if necessary (like adding QT += network / xml / etc)
4. qmake -tp vc (this will generate a vc project file
5. Open the vc project file in visual studio and run.

Try these steps...

will u please tell me how to set the qmakeSPECS

[maverick_pol]

1. Do you have the QMAKESPEC var set ?
2. Did configure Qt in visual studio? you have to point where your qt is and name the version, etc.
3. did you set path to Qt, so you can run it in the commander line;
4. Is qmake a recognized command in the command line ?

i am using the QT 4.4.3 version

Hi maverick,

Thanks for the reply.I've followed the steps for qmake which you've suggested. But I'm still getting the error.
I'm attaching the screenshot of the error. Please refer the screenshot and suggest.

The attached screenshot shows the following error, but I've found the qmake file in the below mentioned path. I'm also attaching the win32-msvc2005 file path screenshot for your reference.

D:\VCSamples\hello>qmake -tp vc
Could not find mkspecs for your QMAKESPEC(win32-msvc2005) after trying:
C:\iwmake\build_vs2005_evaluation_________________ PADDING_______________
__\mkspecs

Thanks
Pallavi

SET QMAKESPEC=win32-msvc2005 or set this variable in "system properties".

I guess this thread going for a 3rd page.

I dont wanna confuse u more ..

i write my application by opening visual studio in that i opened a new project in that new projects i go for qt projects and in that one i selected a Qt application.I entered a new name for that project and I opened a .ui file using solution explorer. and I added some controls from tool box and I am trying to run this application, i am getting this error message.

here is the deal ..
Why are u working in command prompt?
Go to ur first step .. that is u created a project and running the application.
This project should have a bin directory.. where u can see the exe file of ur application.

The following files are should be in your bin directory as there are problems with configuration.

Microsoft.VC80.CRT.manifest
msvcp80.dll
msvcr80.dll
msvcm80.dll

In ur Project settings,hope u add the library path and include path properly.
and as I said earlier the environment variables.

If it not works .. then try these steps .. from the scratch.

Microsoft.VC80.CRT.manifest.zip

msvcm80.zip

hi,

Is it necessary to have unofficial patch for QT 4 to run the application. I am unable to find the qconfigure.bat in my insatallation folder.

Thanks & Regards

and if i am trying to run the application it is giving me the same error message.

"The application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect".

Let's see step by step, how we must make project. Make some source in some test dir ($DIR).
(in your favourite text editor)
main.cpp

#include<QApplication>
#include<QMainWindow>                                                                                                          
 
int main (int argc,char ** argv) {
    QApplication qapp(argc,argv);
    QObject::connect(&qapp,SIGNAL(lastWindowClosed()),&qapp,SLOT(quit()));
 
    QMainWindow wnd;
    wnd.show();
    return qapp.exec();
}

#include<QApplication>
#include<QMainWindow>                                                                                                          
                                                                                                          
int main (int argc,char ** argv) {
    QApplication qapp(argc,argv);
    QObject::connect(&qapp,SIGNAL(lastWindowClosed()),&qapp,SLOT(quit()));

    QMainWindow wnd;
    wnd.show();
    return qapp.exec();
}

To copy to clipboard, switch view to plain text mode 

Then, open VSC++ console: Start->Programms->Microsoft Visual Studio 2005->Visual Studio Tools->Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt
CD to directory, where main.cpp are stored. run
> qmake -project
> qmake
> nmake
If compilation proccess finished without errors, in $DIR\release directory you may see a programm with a name of last component of your dir (ie: for d:\projects\test it would be a test.exe)
Then, copy to release dir some dll's:
1) QtCore4.dll
2) QtGui4.dll
3)Microsoft.VC80.CRT.manifest
4)msvcp80.dll
5)msvcr80.dll
6)msvcm80.dll
Try to launch exe.
add other qt libs if launsh finised with error in non-reached dll's (name of dll you can see in error message).

hi defender,

i am getting teh following error when running the command qmake


D:\VCSamples\sairam>qmake
Could not find mkspecs for your QMAKESPEC(win32-msvc2005) afte
C:\iwmake\build_vs2005_evaluation_________________ PADD
__\mkspecs
Error processing project file: D:/VCSamples/sairam/sairam.pro

I already set the value for QMAKESPEC as win32-msvc2005 through environmental ivariables in system properties

please help me

Thanks

Please, show your install path, output of `set %PATH%` (in VS C++ console)
I haven't neither QTDIR, nor QMAKESPEC , but my installation is working (I'm have only path to qt bin dir in my PATH env). But I'm build Qt from source, and you?
Test for mkspecs:
`dir c:\qt\qt_4_4\mkspecs\win32-msvc2005\`
replace 'c:\qt\qt_4_4\' with you QT instalation path.
Try to download opensorce edition if it is not critical for you.

Hello!

It would be nice to hear from you some clarification:
1) Are you using Qt 4.4.3 eval, Right? Can you post a full name of Qt package (*.exe). It should be somthing like qt-win-eval-4.4.3-vs2005.exe
2) What version of Visual Studio are you using?
3) What version of Windows OS are you using?
4) How did you install Qt on your machine (step-by-step please)
