Description Leonid Lenyashin 2011-09-09 14:09:43 UTC 
On Linux create a "Hello Qt World" sample project. Make sure that Studio is the selected toolchain. Try to build:

dmake: defaulting to parallel mode.
See the man page dmake(1) for more information on setting up the .dmakerc file.

This is crazy as:
-pipe is not supported by Studio
-Wall is something close to Studio's +w or +w2  
-W (old form of gnu's -Wextra) is part of Studio +w2 I assume.

This is a stopper for any Qt work in Studio on Linux (I've not checked Solaris)
Comment 1 yuriy_lalym 2011-09-09 22:14:35 UTC 
mkspecs/linux-g++ and CC - ? How there can correspond options?

CC not linked Qt.so-files created gcc. It is news?
Comment 2 igor_nikiforov 2011-09-19 10:40:23 UTC 
The Qt support is implemented the following way:
  1. IDE generates the .pro file with some Qt qmake options
  2. IDE executes qmake with the generated Qt file as a parameter.    

qmake uses so-called "specs", to understand what compiler options should be used for different platform compilers in different situations.
Here is the specs list from Ubuntu 8.04 system with Qt 4.3.4 installed (located in /usr/share/qt4/mkspecs)
linux-ecc-64
linux-g++
linux-g++-32
linux-g++-64
linux-icc
linux-icc-32
linux-icc-64
linux-kcc
linux-lsb-g++
linux-pgcc

As you can see this list don't contains spec for OSS on Linux. I've filed Suggestion on Qt to add this spec to the distribution:
Here is the link:
    https://bugreports.qt.nokia.com/browse/QTBUG-21526

On Solaris 10 Qt 4.4.4 from blastwave.org supports the following specs:
solaris-cc
solaris-cc-64
solaris-g++
solaris-g++-64

"solaris-cc" or "solaris-cc-64" are OSS spec to be used.

The minor problem with Qt support on Solaris is the following:
    1. Add OSS to path and start IDE.
    2. Create Qt sample.
    3. Try to build it. The following error message will appear in output:
        QMAKESPEC has not been set, so configuration cannot be deduced.
        Error processing project file: nbproject/qt-Debug.pro

To resolve that user should go to  Project Properties->QT and set spec property to "solaris-cc" or "solaris-cc-64". After that both build and run work will work fine.

So on Solaris if OSS toolchain is used and user haven't set spec Project Property the -spec should be passed to qmake with "solaris-cc" value.

The described Solaris issue fix is here:

Comment 4 Alexander Simon 2011-09-19 13:08:54 UTC 
Fix correct (for solaris+OSS) and safe.
One note:
It would be nice to set default qmakespec in all OSS tool collection flavors.
