Fresh QT 471 won’t compile example projects

 

Hi Forum,
I’m new to QT since a few weeks back now. After installation of the windows SDK on a Win Vista using only default options I’m still not able to get the build of the included examples to build. My goal is to design for Android mobiles and if feasible also for UIQ.

After launching QT Creator I open the appchooser example, select the Edit view and starts Build Project “appchooser” from the Build menu. This results in error message stating “no main.moc”. At other forums I found this should be fixed by running Clean All, qmake and thereafter Build, but I still get the following Compiler Output:

XXXX Clean All: Several read remarks but at the end a reasuring “exited normally” XXXXX

So Forum friends, what am I missing? No doubt a common green be error but I still like to learn and most likely others will also learn from your advices.
