Subject: [Interest] Can I mix Qt VS Tools with Visual Studio's "Linux
development with C++" to build a Qt app on Linux?
Hi,
I originally posted this question on the Qt Forum:
https://forum.qt.io/topic/110620/can-i-mix-qt-vs-tools-with-visual-studio-s-linux-development-with-c-to-build-a-qt-app-on-linux
One of the moderators, JKSH, suggested asking here if I didn't get any
responses, which I have not.
In my searching, I haven't found anything directly on topic about this. So, I
thought I'd post here. Full disclosure: I am quite new and green with respect
to Qt.
I've tinkered enough to be able to use the Qt VS Tools to create a Qt project
that builds for Windows using Visual Studio 2017.
And I've created a C++ project using the "Linux development with C++" that
builds on Linux using Visual Studio 2017.
Now I'd like to mix the two in order to build my Qt app on both Windows and
Linux using Visual Studio 2017 to perform both builds.
The Qt VS Tools documentation talks about creating a .pro file and exporting
the project in order to build on other platforms. This would seem to indicate
that it is not possible to do what I'd like. But, I'm not sure whether this is
a hard requirement or just reflects the state of things when the documentation
was written.
So, is it possible to mix the two and build a Qt app from Visual Studio for
both Windows and Linux platforms? If so, can someone give me an outline of the
steps to follow to achieve this?
Many Thanks
