!Introduction
This set of instructions will walk you through setting up a QtCreator C++ project from scratch.

When you have finished this tutorial you will be able to compile a working Ogre Application and you will be ready to start the ((Basic Tutorials)).

{maketoc}

!Prerequisites
Get QtCreator from qt-project.org.
Get the [http://qt-project.org/downloads|stable version] that fits your setup.
!New Project
Click New Project in the start screen, and choose Other Project - Empty project.

__Give it a name and a place:__
{img fileId="1910"}

__Add files:__ (__Tip:__ Move your cpp and h-files to inside the Qt project folder before you do this!) 
{img fileId="1911"}

__Files added:__
{img fileId="1907"}

__Options:__
{img fileId="1908"}

__Qt4 Settings:__ (__Tip:__ In Qt 5 this is called "Build & Run". If you have installed Visual Studio before you installed the Visual Studio Qt 5-version, all this should already be correct set up., so you do not have to do anything here.)
{img fileId="1912"}

__Edit project file:__
{img fileId="1913"}
{CODE(wrap="1", colors="qmake")}
TEMPLATE = app
TARGET = OgreQtProject

DEFINES -= UNICODE

    # You may need to change this include directory

__Build All__:
{img fileId="1914"}

__Build Settings:__

__Note:__ In the Release configuration, go to 
"Build Steps -> qmake", press "Details" and add
{CODE(wrap="1", colors="qmake")}
"CONFIG-=debug" "CONFIG+=release"
{CODE}
to the "Additional arguments:"

Then to this:
{img fileId="1918"}

__Custom Process Step settings:__ - do this for both the Debug and Release configuration:
__Note:__ You can also use environment variables here, in %-signs. Like this:
{CODE(wrap="1", colors="qmake")}
C:\Windows\System32\cmd.exe
/c copy debug\OgreQtProjectd.exe %OGRE_HOME%\bin\debug
{CODE}
and you probably want to leave the Working directory to the defaul value of %{buildDir}.
{img fileId="1915"}

__Run Settings__ - must make one for debug, one for release:
{img fileId="1917"}

__New Run Configuration:__
__Note:__ You can also use environment variables here, in %-signs. Like this:
{CODE(wrap="1", colors="qmake")}
Executable: OgreQtProjectd.exe
Working directory: %OGRE_HOME%\bin\debug
{CODE}
