There is no "manifest" file that describes the examples in Qt 5 yet, and that Qt Creator needs to show you the examples. https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-27801 > The code seems to be have the capability to check for any additional Qt's > examples but it also has this > > // There is no good solution for Qt 5 yet > if (version->qtVersion().majorVersion != 4) > continue; That is fixed in 2.6 & master: http://qt.gitorious.org/qt-creator/qt-creator/blobs/2.6/src/plugins/qtsupport/exampleslistmodel.cpp#line303 > Can anyone shed a light on what "no good solution" means in this context? > Any other way (config setting, environment variable)? As it is, you cannot "add" examples, the code basically randomly takes a registered Qt version that has some. You can force Qt Creator to take a specific example manifest by putting a ExampleManifests entry in your settings: http://qt-project.org/wiki/Building-Qt-Creator-Packages Br, Eike > Cheers, > Kevin > > -- > ** Qt Developer Conference: http://qtconference.kdab.com/ ** > > Kevin Krammer | [email protected] | Software Engineer > Klarälvdalens Datakonsult AB, a KDAB Group company > Tel.
