Question

I am trying to use QT creator to develop GUI/Console applications using QT framework. I am using windows XP. I installed QT 4.8.3 and mingw. Both are installed without any error.
And then I installed QT creator.
QT Version: Qt 4.8.2 in PATH (4.8.2)
Mingw(manual)
Compiler path: C:\MinGW\bin\g++.exe
Debugger path: C:\MinGW\bin\gdb.exe
mkspec: win32-g++

 EnvironmentVariables:
 QTDIR, PATH, MinGW, 
 PATH includes 4.8.2\bin; mingw\bin 
 INCLUDE : 4.8.2\include

When i try to develop an application using qt creator, it has been built properly and binary is also generated without any error.
But when I try to run the application, It is crashed saying that

The program has unexpectedly finished.
C:\Qt\4.8.2\examples\widgets\analogclock-build-desktop-Qt_4_8_2_in_PATH__4_8_2__Debug\debug\analogclock.exe exited with code -1073741819

This crash came for example application provided by QT library( it is analog clock)

Please try to help me in this, Do I need to set any variables or other

Thank alot.

I had exactly the same problem and solved it yesterday.

If the output of g++ --version doesn’t say something like 4.4, this is binary incompatibility. You’ll have to get MinGW 4.4. It is included in QtSDK, or at least was.
Next, configure your QtCreator settings (“Build & Run > Toolchains”).
