[Qt-creator] GCC 4.32 for Windows

[Patrick Scheller]

I thought it is obvious enough what I mean and I see that some other users also share this desire to be able to work with GCC 4.3 out of the box within Qt-Creator.
To ur question wether or not to support GCC3 or GCC2 or whatever: I really dont mind if Trolltech do or not keep up support for older compilers as long as it is not detrimental to users of newer versions.

In my work I found used projects which were still built with VC6. I immediatly migrated them to VC2005, keeping up the old compiler would proof fatal in the long run.

Since I have already set up mingw-GCC 4.32 on my PC I would very much appreciate:

1. That I can chose which compiler to use within Qt-Creator
2. Have the freedome to just download Qt-Creator without mingw 3.x
3. DebugLibs compiled with GCC 4.3 would be nice too of course :) Or at least to have some working build scripts with a recent compiler suit and not a completely outdated one.

I have to this day not heard of the mingw-64 project but it sounds nice so far but I can't comment on this.
