[Qt-creator] Building Qt Creator with Qt 4.6.x

2010-06-14 Thread Matt Thompson
From the announcements about the new RC, I thought that the whole reason for
the accelerated release was that Qt 4.7 was not going to be ready in time.
From this, I assumed that Qt Creator 2.0-rc1 would build correctly with Qt
4.6.  I adjusted the qtcreator.pro file to allow building with 4.6 yet I get
compile errors in utils/wizard.cpp which is trying to call setSideWidget
which was added in Qt 4.7.

What did I miss?  For what it's worth, I am trying to build with Qt 4.6.1.

Hi Matt!

Qt Creator 2.0 is based on Qt 4.7 (even if that might not be officially 
released at the time we release Qt Creator).

This is due to us using -- as you noticed -- APIs introduced in Qt 4.7.

Unfortunately we can not just remove those as that will break some 
features we would like to keep and it would for certain introduce new 
bugs: Some changes in Qt 4.7 were done to fix bugs we discovered while 
working on creator;-) We did checked and the changes necessary to roll 
back to Qt 4.6 are just too big.

So unfortunately you can not build Qt Creator 2.0 with Qt versions 4.6.x 
or below.

Best Regards,
Tobias
