"Go to the download page ":http://qt.nokia.com/downloads

And choose the windows offline installer.

Choose for custom and select the addin and other goodies you want.

No, you should download the "Qt source":http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.7.3.zip

Then compile it using your vs2010, ref to http://doc.qt.nokia.com/4.7/install-win.html

At last, you can download and install QtCreator or Qt Visual Studio Add-in if you like.

Sorry my mistake, i didn't notice the remark :

bq. * Based on MinGW (download sources) tool set. Does not support VS compiler.

If you use the tag "vs2010" on the topright of this window you can find other topics related to this.

Sorry i can't help you further since i'm not using vs2010.

You have a commercial version of Qt. There should be the option to obtain a suitable version through the helpline you have paid for.

Since there are different compilations for each version of visual studio available, I would not expect that they are interchangable as you tried to do. However, I am not completely clear about this yet. Some threads indicate that it might be possible.

You certainly have the option to download the complete source and do a compilation with the vs version you have already. From my personal point of view that seems to be the cleanest option.

Yes.

I am not aware of benefits of evaluation license. To my understanding are the source codes identical, but this might have changed with the new regime for commercial licenses.

I guess you should get the qt source as suggested by

That is probably the cleanest way for you. I have no experience with vs2010. With vs2005 I could do compilation without a problem. Unfortunately, it takes some time depending on speed of your machine.
And do not get shocked by the frequent warning messages ;-) Only errors seem to matter.

HI All

After installing i follwed the following steps

1.)set the path for QT directory in environmental variables
2.)run the configure command

But when i try to build it using nmake command it is giving me following error
fatal error U1064:MAKEFILE not found and no target specified stop.

Hi

I have done everything through vs2010 command prompt only.

Ok??
That puzzles me a bit, I have to admit.

What do you mean with

1.)set the path for QT directory in environmental variables
[/quote] ?

I typically unzip the whole stuff into a directory. I use the base directory with the configure.exe as my working directory. After that there is only to follow what the procedure is telling you.
The only difference I see is that I have a valid installation of Qt, but that should not be an issue to my understanding.

With vs2010, you should use qt 4.8 for Windows - VS2010, here is the link: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/prereleases, and qtvsaddin 1.1.9, here is the link: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/prereleases.
And the guide for Installing Qt for Windows here it is :http://developer.qt.nokia.com/doc/qt-4.7/install-win.html
I wish I can help you. Good luck.
