I think that this misses the point.
I am using an IDE i am using Qt-Creator. I don't want to use qmake cmake or
make ( I do this when I compile Octave etc.)
I was looking for a system that works like M$ visual studio but in open
source and Ubuntu.

So if Qt-Creator can't handle KDE stuff then why does it show it as an
option?
