Qt-Qt命令提示符

Question

So I found an excellent video where it teaches me about static compile. But in there it doesn't show where he got the "Qt Command Prompt" from. I searched alot but didn't find it in the directory. What do I do? Can anybody tell me where it's located? I even searched for it in Explorer but didn't find it.

Answer 1

Just add the following paths:

<qtdir>\mingw\bin;
<qtdir>\Desktop\Qt\<qtver>\mingw\bin;
<qtdir>Madde\bin\

to your %PATH% environment variable, and the default command prompt (cmd.exe) will become what you need. Don't forget to restart an already opened cmd.exe after editing %PATH%.

What OS do you use? For exanple, here you can find how to edit %PATH% on win7.

Answer 2

The Qt command prompt is simply a normal cmd.exe session where the paths to the Qt libraries and binaries have been added to the environment.

It depends on how you installed Qt (using the SDK, build from source, etc.). If you used the SDK, a shortcut should have been installed in your Start menu. My Qt command prompt is at:

C:\Qt\4.8.2\bin\qtvars.bat vsvars

That being said, I rarely use the Qt command prompt. If you use the normal Visual Studio command prompt, then navigate to your Qt "bin" folder, you should be able to execute the command you need, like configure .

If you are using Windows 8, just type "Qt 5.4 for Desktop" after pressing the windows button. Actually in windows 8 just typing "qt" in start menu, will give you the suggestion.
