Creating Qt Projects

Use the Qt Project creation wizard to create new Qt-based projects based on Qt SDKs integrated into Symbian. The wizard walks you through the process of defining and creating a Qt project.

  1. Launch the New Qt Project Wizard
  2. Select type of Qt project
  3. Enter project name and location
  4. Select SDKs for build targets
  5. Select Qt modules to include in project
  6. Set application UID

NOTE There must be at least one recognized SDK installed before you can create a project. See the Symbian SDKs panel to determine if the installed SDKs are recognized by Carbide.c++ IDE. If the SDK you have is not recognized, you may still be able to add it to the Discovered Symbian OS SDK list.

Enter project name and location

Use the New Qt Symbian OS C++ Project page in the Qt Project Wizard to define the projects name and where it should be saved, then click Next. In Qt projects, the name of the project folder must match the project name.
