Though that can be done with Qt 5.12 and Qt Creator. Beyond that I
don't know the rationale for any official change of tools. I'm just
trying to use the most normal, median setup, so that I have as few
problems as possible going forward. Depending on my experience over the
next couple of days I might move back to Qt Creator. If editing .ui
files is the only thing I need to do in Qt Creator, then that's not a
big deal, as I rarely do that.
I have experience with VS2017 from a Web Audio project I did a year ago,
so for me it's a consolidation of tools, not a learning of new tools. I
am doing a bunch of different development in different languages, and
while Qt Creator has a great editor for C++, it's not so great for
JavaScript, CSS, and other stuff I'm doing. On the other hand, my
experience using VS2017 as a JavaScript editor has not been positive
during the past day or so, which is disappointing. Regardless, one less
IDE on my PC is a good thing, so I'm still cautiously optimistic about
this move to VS2017.

I am on Windows 10 and plan to continue using mingw & QtCreator until

there was some reason for the change, but I don't recall it ever being
explained.

I already have a reason to edit one of the .ui files, which causes

crash VS2017.
Jojo - are you able to edit .ui files inside VS2017? Or is that
one of the reasons you still use Qt Creator?
For now I'm going to edit this file in Qt Creator and then reopen
VS2017 after I'm done.

To end this thread on a note that might interest the email list:
What configuration are you using personally right now? It sounds
like you're still using mingw, and that MuseScore still supports
building with mingw. Is there a timeline for ending that support
and only supporting MSVC inside Visual Studio?

To make sure I understand - "the former" is VS 2017, which is
the official Windows build method now, so I should switch to it.
OK. I see instructions for that here:
https://musescore.org/en/handbook/developers-handbook/compilation/compile-instructions-windows-visual-studio-2017
Are those up-to-date? Or maybe nothing has changed for those
instructions.
I just finished installing Qt 5.12 ...

So I should stop using Qt and switch to MSVC? I have Visual
Studio 2017 installed for another project. I could switch. Or
is this MSVC inside Qt Creator?

Ah, good to know, maybe just in tile for musescore 3 beta ;-)
Note though that the official way is no longer via MinGW but
via MSVC

I am updating to the final RC right now. It was released
several hours ago.

OK. My deploy steps seem to have gotten toasted in the
process too. I'm having trouble going back to building my
previously committed, unrebased code. I've been hoping for
a real 64 bit version of this to come along, so I think I'll
try 5.12, if that's an approved version for MuseScore. I just
looked at the handbook and there it is, as of 3 weeks ago
5.12 and 64 bit is available. OK. I'll install Qt and
follow instructions again.
Thanks!

Yesterday I was building with off of a master that was a few
months
old. Today with the new master I am getting this error at
the very end
of the build:
CMake Error at mscore/cmake_install.cmake:46
<http://cmake_install.cmake:46> (file):
file INSTALL cannot find
"C:/Qt/Tools/mingw530_32/bin/libgcc_s_seh-1.dll
<http://libgcc_s_seh-1.dll>".
I am running Qt 5.9.5 <tel:5.9.5>, and you can see the mingw
version in the error
message. I have not compiled MuseScore in the past few
months, did I
miss something? Do I need to change my install
configuration, and if
so, how do I do that? Or do I need to find a copy of this
dll file and
copy it into this mingw folder?
Thanks!
