Need help to install Qt Creator
-
Hello, I'm interested about using Qt products, but I need some help from a professional.
I would like to try the open source version for Qt framework, and I want to install the Qt creator IDE for trying it for free.
https://www.qt.io/download-open-source
First, I have managed to install the Qt installer, and in the installation folder (within the installer), I selected “custom installation”. Then, I selected “Qt 6.5.2” in the select components.
However, when I finished the installation, but instead I have Qt 6.2.4 which opens on a terminal. Also, it installed me Qt linguist and Qt designer.
Can you help me to install qt creator please ?
Thanks in advance,
Paul NOWAK

Not sure what you mean by that. What opens in a terminal.
You should now have QtCreator installed. Start it and go to "Tools/Options.../Kits" and check your Kit - you should see the Qt version there which you installed. -

@Paul_NOWAK Is this on Linux? If yes,
type
which qmake
and then type:
qmake --version -

when I open the terminal, I get this:
Setting up environment for Qt usage...
C:\Qt-framework\6.2.4\mingw_64>
I work on a windows computer, and I want to know if it's possible to install Qt creator for free, and how.
What do you think about my set up during the installation ? Should I need something else ?

Hi and welcome to devnet,
Since you used the online installer Qt Creator should already been installed but it is not under any 6.X.Y folder.
If you can find the executable, then you should start the one named MaintenanceTool and check there if for any reason Qt Creator is not selected.

Are you talking about Qt creator executable ? or the installer's one ?
Because I cannot find any qt creator .exe.
In fact, I followed this tutorial on youtube:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXojtB8vS2E
However, as its my first time trying Qt framework, when I arrive in the "installation folder" step, there is no "Qt 6.4 for desktop development". The video's author advised me to select "custom installation" instead, and then select the latest Qt version as a component.
I already told him my problem, but he hasn't found a solution for me yet.

Strange...
What I would do is to remove everything and start from scratch.For the moment, use the default values suggested by the installer.
When it comes to the selection of packages, double check that Qt Creator is indeed selected.
-
I don't remember that it is possible to deselect Qt Creator from the online installer at all. So, I highly doubt that you don't have Qt Creator installed.
The default location is C:\Qt\Tools\QtCreator\bin\qtcreator.exe. However, it looks like you have changed C:\Qt to C:\Qt-framework.
