[Qt-interest] Major issues with QT4 on Windows

[Malyushytsky, Alex]

As I said it has problem with MSVC ( to be precise VC 2005, service pack 1, Windows XP 64 ).

I have not tested it with other compilers on Windows.
Problem was reported ( [Issue N243530] Qt4 built with static CRT ).

I did manage to build QT and my application,  and it visually worked (no crashing if I abort the heap corruption message, so the problem might be just in message. But you can't deploy application in this state.


I was able to reproduce problems in small example. If anybody wants, I can send by e-mail whole testing project, but the problem demonstration is pretty simple:

I created dialog based application, added combo-box and button to the dialog, filled combo-box in designer with a few strings, added 1 slot and connected button click to the custom slot:

void staticTest::onPushButtonClicked()
{
// to fail Item0 should exist in combobox
        QString dataSet = tr("Item0");
        int index = ui.comboBox->findText( dataSet ); // fails here
        if( index>-1 )
                ui.comboBox->setCurrentIndex( index ); }
}

If I am not mistaken I had another failure somewhere too,  but this is enough to demonstarate the problem.

Regards,
    Alex

I have had no problem building static Qt applications on Windows with
Qt 4.x

I use the MinGW installation.
