Adding Qxt plugin to Designer - qt

I'm having a problem with adding the Qxt library to Qt Designer. The error it gives is:
Cannot load library C:/Qt/4.6.2/plugins/designer/QxtDesignerPlugins.dll; The specified module cannot be found.
Any ideas on what the problem is?

Try setting the QT_DEBUG_PLUGINS environment variable to 1 and then try again. This should give you some additional debug output that will help isolate the problem.

Did you check that this file is actually there?
Usually, the problem with designer plugins is that they're installed in the wrong directory, or linked against a different Qt (esp. debug vs. release).

Check that the plugin itself can find all the dlls it depends on. Use depends.exe (Dependency Checker) or maybe FileMon.exe to find out.
The error message can be a bit misleading, as it is the same if any of the primary dlls dependencies are missing too.

Cannot find feature windows_vulkan_sdk in qt

I have newly installed Qt and when I tried to open my projects and have not even tried to compile, I got this mysterious cannot find feature windows_vulkan.
My QT has been working earlier but I had to reinstall it because it complained I had missing libicuun65.dll and libicuuc65.dll and recommended reinstallation. I have removed everything and installed qt from scratch.
Below is my error
I went into the directory it specified and clearly see the file. I am just not sure the content of the file is complete as it only contains 2 lines below:
load(windows_vulkan_sdk)
QMAKE_LIBS_VULKAN =
Maybe there are lib that are missing like libicuun65.dll and libicuuc65.dll and/or others?
Also, please note the uncompleted "Prepare C++ code Model" status bar. It has never completed as I saw it there for hours...it should not take that long.
What should I do to rectify this issue? Please help.
Update: My paths are set up too...
I think I understand why this happens for you, you install your Qt in Drive D but install Vulkan SDK in Drive C.
These should be on the same Drive.
Maybe Qt can't find your Vulkan SDK because of that please reinstall Vulkan SDK in Drive D.
another thing is this link in bugreports.qt.io
and also this GitHub issue.
They have problems like you and their compiler was MSYS2.
In
\msys64\mingw32\qt5-static\share\qt5\mkspecs\common\windows-vulkan.conf
changed:
From: load(windows_vulkan_sdk)
To: load(win32/windows_vulkan_sdk)

dependency qt.core not found for product

I get a lot of same errors when try to compile my project using qbs.
Like this:
Dependency "Qt.core" not found for product "dist".
Please create a Qt profile using the qbs-setup-qt tool if you haven't already done so.
Product 'dist' had errors and was disabled.
I use QtCreator. Should I "create a new Qt profile using the qbs-setup-qt tool"?
Please, can you explain what does it mean?
No, Qt Creator sets up the profiles automatically. The most common cause for this message is that the Kit you are using does not have a (valid) Qt version set. Please verify this first. If everything looks okay in that regard, please file an issue at bugreports.qt.io, and we will take it from there.

Cannot load sqlite.dll with QSQLITE2 Qt plugin

I use QtCreator + mingw.
I have compiled QSQLITE2 plugin. I simply entered plugin directory in Qt source code:
c:\Qt\Qt5.2.0\5.2.0\Src\qtbase\src\plugins\sqldrivers\sqlite
and I built it with my sqlite 2.8.17 that I have locally (as dll and header):
qmake "LIBS+=-Lc:\projects\lib -lsqlite" "INCLUDEPATH+=c:\projects\include"
make
make install
Everything builds okay.
Now, I have another DLL (also implemented as Qt plugin, a custom one), which makes use of QSQLITE2 Qt plugin. My own dll is also linked to sqlite.dll. So it looks like this:
my.dll depends on sqlite.dll
%QT_PLUGINS%\qsqlite2d.dll depends on sqlite.dll
my.dll uses qsqlite2d.dll through Qt's plugin engine
myApp.exe loads my.dll
Problem is that my application cannot load my.dll, because of invalid location access or something like that. I don't know any details and that's the problem.
The sqlite.dll is in the application directory when running it.
When I run application in debug mode, it crashes in some assembly file, but in stack trace I can see that it's somewhere inside sqlite.dll, in sqlite_step symbol. That's all I know.
Note 1) I have another plugin dll, the my3.dll, which uses QSQLITE plugin (it's for sqlite3) and is linked with sqlite3.dll and this one loads just fine. I have compiled QSQLITE plugin myself as well (even there was the one provided with Qt, that's because Qt linked statically to sqlite3 and I wanted it to link dynamically to sqlite3.dll).
Note 2) Both plugins work just fine under Linux.
Any hints what might be wrong? What else can I check?
EDIT:
I've just performed a test: I deleted my.dll from plugins to avoid loading it at all. Then I added code to main.cpp:
QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QSQLITE2", ":memory:");
Thing is, that it also crashed, with the very same stack trace (at this very line, I debugged it). Thus I think there's something wrong with sqlite2 Qt plugin, but I'm still unable to tell what. I looked up for other sqlite.dll, I just downloaded the one from sqlite.org: http://www.sqlite.org/sqlitedll-2_8_17.zip - so it's official build, but it's the exactly the same file I had and it also fails the same way.
It turned out that qsqlite2d.dll cannot be linked sqlite.dll, because sqlite.dll is not compiled in debug mode. After recompiling application in release mode (thus using qsqlite2.dll, not qsqlite2d.dll), the plugin loads correctly and works.
This makes sense, but just one more thing that bugs me - qsqlited.dll (for sqlite3) had no problem linking with sqlite3.dll. No matter if I compiled debug or release - the single sqlite3.dll worked with both debug and release plugins. Anyone has an idea how is that possible? Please comment if you do, I'd appreciate it.

Error building QtCore

I am trying to build QtCore.lib and I get this weird error.
PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "MOC kernel\qtimer.cpp"
I am able to build qtmain.lib but not able tp go any further.
moc.exe is available in bin folder and the path is added to my PATH.
kernel\qtimer.cpp file is also present in corelib folder.
Any help in this regard will be appreciated. I am building with Qt-4.5.2 source.
In Qt 4.5.2 moc.exe has some issues. An email I sent to Qt Support mentions it moc'ing files that were not modified. It could have further issues, which could be related to what you are experiencing.
Sorry I can't recall the exact details. To make things worse the link Qt Support had sent me at the time is broken.
They had suggested using 4.5.3. I think we ended up staying on 4.5.1, which we are still using today, although the move to 4.7.x. is occurring as I write this. :)

Problem installing QT on Vista

I have downloaded QT SDK LGLP (Creator + libraries) 4.6 and I am having problems compiling projects. After install I have added C:\Qt\2010.02\qt;C:\Qt\2010.02\qt\bin to PATH and added QTDIR env varaible containing C:\Qt\2010.02\qt, the I run "configure -platform win32-g++" to compile it. Everything went good.
I the tried to use QT Creator to create and compile a project.
The problem is everytime I try to compile I get the following error message:
No valid Qt version set. Set one in Tools/Options
Error while building project GUITest
When executing build step 'QMake'
Canceled build.
When I go to Tools/Options the manual version is set to v4.6.2, Location c:\qt\2010.02\qt\bin\qmake.exe. The auto detected version is set to even though I have added the dirs in Path. Is there something I am doing wrong here? Has anyone encountered this problem in Vista.
I have been working on this for 2 days, change configurations, reinstalled etc...
The QtDir value is compiled into the
qmake-binary. You can only change this
by recompiling qmake and passing on a
different value to qt-configure (I'm
not sure which setting or variable is
passed on to qmake) When using
precompiled, downloaded binaries,
you'll have to keep the QtDir at
c:\Qt\4.6.2
EDIT:
What I said was incorrect. The locations of qmake, moc,... are located in the file:
<Qt>/4.x.x/.qmake.cache
Try uninstalling/reinstalling qt creator
But i highly suspect you didnt compile qt properly as this problem seems really odd. I had alot of problems compiling so i know myself from the past mistakes.
Make sure you carefully reread install instructions for your environment, also if you have visual studio you need to follow procedure to install it in compliance with it. Same if you use another c compiler
If nothing goes right, the easiest way to install qt imo is directy from their git hub, chec installin qt from git, on their git site there is wiki that explains how to do it
its really easy and after that all you need to do is add the qt to creator
Hey, it QT emulators have lot of problems in vista, i have tried several times,it didnt work for me.. it works well with windows XP. though ill tell you in brief what you need to do
1)install latest perl
2)install carbide c++ editor
3)install Qt SDK
4)install s60 or N97 emulators
make sure that except perl all the items which are mentioned above will be in same drive,and also
make sure that folder names which you give while installation should not have spaces at all..
i.e suppose if you are going to place any of the above items in a folder whose name is having spaces it will not work.
if you have any doubts feel free to ask.
