qtcreator_process_stub.exe additional and unnecessary console window in QtGUI app

[zuko]

Hi

My GUI application compiled in release or/and debug modes start with 'qtcreator_process_stub.exe' additional and unnecessary console window. When I close GUI, then 'Press <RETURN> to close this window...' message appears in console window. When I close console window, then both windows will be closed (GUI and console).

Why this console windows is visible, and what can be a reason for this behavior? Other GUI projects are launched properly (there are no console windows), which means that issue is directly in my project, but maybe some of you had a similar issue?

Compilation: QT 4.8.0/MinGW/Windows XP

My project file:

QT       += core gui sql
#CONFIG += qtestlib
CONFIG -= app_bundle
CONFIG -= console
 
win32 {
TARGET = Project_win
}
unix {
TARGET = Project_unix
}
TEMPLATE = app
win32 {
LIBS += -lodbccp32 -ladvapi32 -luser32
}
unix {
LIBS += -lodbc -lodbcinst
}
 
SOURCES += main.cpp\
        MainWindow.cpp \
....
HEADERS  += MainWindow.h \
...
FORMS    += MainWindow.ui \
    AboutDialog.ui \
....
 
OTHER_FILES += \
    sqleditor/SQLTypes \
    sqleditor/SQLKeywords \
    sqleditor/SQLFunctions
 
RESOURCES += \
    Icons.qrc \
    sqleditor/Tags.qrc \
    drivers/sybase/InternalProcedures.qrc \
    components/stylescomponent/StylesComponent.qrc
 
RC_FILE += \
    res/appIcon.rc

QT       += core gui sql
#CONFIG += qtestlib
CONFIG -= app_bundle

win32 {

win32 {

}

You get this behaviour when you are running your deployed application or only when you run it inside Qt Creator? Qt Creator in the Windows SDK (haven't checked lately) has a habit of enabling "Run in terminal" in the Run Settings of new projects.

Both. But I found reason by comparing *.pro.user files from new project and my old project. (*.pro.user file in new projects have much more tags)

I don't know why, but I observed that "Qt4ProjectManager.Qt4RunConfiguration.UseTerminal " key in new projects is always set to false, but in my old project it was set always to true.

I created new project, import all source files , and it works now:-)

Thanks for your suggestion about enabling "Run in terminal".

SOLVED.

At least for now, I set the UseTerminal property to true. That was really a pain trying to find the cause for that. Generally, I always toss the pro.user file in projects as they are re-created when opening a project or set of projects in creator.

Thanks VERY much
