Transition from Qt 5.2 to 5.4 -- Visual Studio linker errors

[themoob]

Currently I have only one Qt distribution, and I changed the path in Visual Studio Add-in. I don't know if it matters, but QTDIR is also set up correctly.

Best regards,

Well, the only other thing I could question is whether you have MSVC set up to actually do a 64-bit build. Some compiler define I don't remember at the moment switches between 32 and 64 bit modes. These things are obscure with MSVC; you get one project working and you forget exactly which voodoo you used to do that, and then you get to figure it out all over again for the next one.

I found it. There probably was a change in implementation in Qt windows core. In addition to what Qt 5.2 required, the application needs to link shell32.lib. Thanks for your help.
