msysgit sucks.
Here‘s how to get it to work with your ssh key.
UPDATE: CDB (the Qt name for the Windows debugger) sucks – no variable monitoring, etc. Useless. If you can, switch to Visual Studio to build Qt apps under windoze. See these posts instead.
The last time I set up to build my Qt apps under Windoze, I just selected the Mingw option and everything seemed to work just fine. For some reason I fell down the rabbit hole of using Visual Studio this time. I could give two craps about that, I just want it to work and get out of the way. But I had to stumble through these steps first:
- Install Visual Studio 2010
- Install LGPL Qt SDK for Windows
- Also install Visual Studio Add-in from the same page
- Add c:\Qt\4.7.1\bin to the PATH variable.
- Build Qt from a Visual Studio prompt:
cd C:\Qt\2010.05\qt rm /S /Q c:\Qt\2010.05\qt\tmp nmake confclean nmake clean configure -debug-and-release -opensource -shared -no-qt3support -qt-sql-sqlite -phonon -phonon-backend -webkit -platform win32-msvc2003 nmake
- Install Debugging Tools for Windows 32-bit Version. Only install the shit in the red circle:
- Then browse here:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Redist\Debugging Tools for Windows
and run dbg_x86.msi to install the 32-bit stuff…
- Then run QT, select Tools->Options, and select this path in the CDB tab:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Debugging Tools for Windows (x86)
… what bs…
- Write some freakin’ QT code, geesh…
