Easily configure and build Qt with QtBuilder!
Message 1 in thread
Dear Qt fans,
Qt 4.3.3 was released few days ago. You may want to test it, but before you have
to compile it, which is a boring task. But wait, I have some good news:
QtBuilder just released!
QtBuilder is a free software making it easier to configure and to compile Qt 4
(Open Source ot Commercial edition). It consists in a wizard which
automatically detects the available compilers and configures the build
environment to compile Qt with the selected one.
QtBuilder also allows to set advanced compiler specific options which are
normally only available to people who have a strong knowledge of the Qt build
system and of the used compiler as well.
For example, with Visual C++ 2005, it is possible to compile a special version
of Qt which better exploits the optimizating capabilities of this compiler, or
to obtain standalone binaries which require no dll installation on the target
machine (like msvcr80.dll or msvcp80.dll).
QtBuilder 0.6.0 only supports Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express, but the support
of others compilers is planned, as well as the port on other platforms, or the
association to .pro files to make QtBuilder becomes a graphical front-end for
qmake. This way, it will be possible to compile every project based on qmake in
only one click!
Just give it a try, it is completely free!

hmm, interesting, in the screenshots area I see on windows some actions
happening.
does it work on other platforms too ?
can I configure QT to build only with specific modules from there - like
core, network, sql, xml, no gui ?

Hello Yong,
For now QtBuilder is only available on Windows. I plan to port it later, but to
support other compiler first (g++). The possibility to select specific modules
to compile is also planed, when I will have the time to work on it again, since
I just started to travel for several months :D
Cheers,
