Greetings,
I'm new to qt-creator and would like to build from the source on linux
but I am experiencing a curious linker error. I get the same error on
the 4.3, 4.4, 4.5, and master git branches. The error message looks like
this:
.obj/release-shared/projectexplorer.o: In function
`ProjectExplorer::ProjectExplorerPlugin::initialize(QStringList const&,
QString*)':
projectexplorer.cpp:(.text+0x216f): undefined reference to
`ProjectExplorer::Internal::WinDebugInterface::WinDebugInterface(QObject*)'
projectexplorer.cpp:(.text+0x2196): undefined reference to
`ProjectExplorer::Internal::MsvcToolChainFactory::MsvcToolChainFactory()'
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
I would be happy to provide the usual system details like OS, compiler,
Qt version, and so on but I don't think its relevant. The error is quite
easy to understand. The projectexplorer.pro <http://projectexplorer.pro>
file lists cpp files that
are only built on windows but code from the corresponding headers is
referenced on any OS. Here is a change that I made to fix the issue.
But the error could be due to your setup, so tell us about your setup
(OS, compiler), which git hash are you at, local modifications, ...
Did you try a clean rebuild (eg after a git clean -dfx)...
I merely substituted a runtime branch on the OS with a compile time
branch on the OS. After this, it builds and runs fine as far as I can
tell. I probably should just submit a bug report and be done but the
fact that this issue exists for me in all the recent release branches
made me want to post a message on this forum and see what people think.
I must be doing something unusual right? I can't be the only one who
wants to build on linux.
I've built QtC-4.5 from git on Linux very recently and i didn't get this
build errors.

Thanks for the great project!
