[Qt-creator] Intel Compiler and C++0x?

[Coda Highland]

No, I mean your chosen Qt mkspec. The default is usually something
like linux-g++ or macx-g++ or win32-msvc or something; there's also
linux-icc, macx-icc, and win32-icc that will use icc as the C/C++
compiler. I will note that these aren't "officially" supported as far
as I know so you're sort of operating at your own risk.

Unfortunately I don't know how to select a different makespec in
Creator (though if you poke around in the Qt Versions preferences pane
or the Project view you can see the makespec it's using). It should
work, though, if you build Qt using that spec as default (that is,
pass "-spec macx-icc" to Qt's configure). Building your Qt project at
the command line you can try "qmake -spec macx-icc" -- do note that
I'm not sure that icc and gcc are binary-compatible so this may or may
not work with a standard Qt build.
