[Qt-interest] Changing the toolchain in Qt Creator

[Tim Beaulen]

Hello,

I'm currently writing a program to help me build specification books.
These specification books are made with Ms Word.
Setting up Qt to work with Word has so far been a problem (Nokia could
make this a lot easier out of the box). But the biggest problem I'm
facing now is that the mingw compiler is not able to compile the code
generated by dumpcpp (problems with forwarded enumerations)
Reading through the documentation and mailinglists, I understand that
I need to use the Microsoft compiler.

I have installed Visual Studio C++ express 2008 now, but I don't see
how I can change the toolchain In Qt Creator.
When I go to the project settings, the combobox to change the
toolchain remains unavailable (greyed out) with only mingw available.

My questions are:
1. Do I need to compile the entire Qt library and Qt Creator with the
microsoft compiler to be able to use it? I've downloaded the Qt SDK
exe installer from the website.
2. If so, why? Why can't I choose another compiler from within Qt Creator?
3. If not, how do I change the toolchain.

Thanks
