If you google “QtCreator Visual Studio” there is a link to a QtCreator Wiki article that describes in detail how to setup QtCreator to use the Visual Studio toolchain (compilers, linkers…). It is probably easier to use the Visual Studio tool chain if you are trying to create a program that uses VTK and Qt.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>--<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Mike Jackson<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>On 8/18/18, 5:17 AM, "vtkusers on behalf of Talal Albader" <<a href="mailto:vtkusers-bounces@public.kitware.com">vtkusers-bounces@public.kitware.com</a> on behalf of <a href="mailto:badertalal@gmail.com">badertalal@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>Hi ,<o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>thanks for the informations,<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>actually i am using msys 2 and mingw-64, the workflow i followed is by installing msys2 ,then adding mingw-w64 toolchain followed by qt 64 installation (all inside msys2)<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>then i downloaded vtk-8.1.1<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>the good news that i managed to compile it at the end , by trial and error work and iterations, just remove everything and try to do fresh build everytime.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>the latest error i face was comming from segy module which i disabled and the library compiled and built with only wornings <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>that is for msys and mingw-w64 branch <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>for visualstudio branch i found that qt creator is combiled to be 32 bit and it has only mingw 32 bit compiler so i droped the hole idea <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>last but not least , i think this is a pure VTK issue not related to qt or mingw ,because other libraries are just going smooth and easy, why vtk build system not like other libraries (sorry to say that but really a greate library like this with too many use cases for visualization) it should be easy to install <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>P.S.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>after successfuly compiling VTK i found in msys pacman -Ss vtk that there is vtk library there but no VTK with Qt , if it could be added to msys2 libraries will be great<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>thanks for all and sorry for the too many words <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>regards<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p></div></div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>On Fri, Aug 17, 2018 at 3:36 PM Fcs <<a href="mailto:ftpronk@engits.com">ftpronk@engits.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p></div><blockquote style='border:none;border-left:solid #CCCCCC 1.0pt;padding:0in 0in 0in 6.0pt;margin-left:4.8pt;margin-right:0in'><p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'>Ok.
