QT application unable to compile

Post by Ants473 »

I just installed codelite on a new machine and am wondering what else I need to do to enable codelite to compile qt applications as I am being stung with the following when I try to compile any QT application in Ubuntu 12.10:

Debugger exited with the following error string:
"No executable file specified.
Use the "file" or "exec-file" command."

in the build tab I am receiving the following message:

make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.

Sorry about that. Please consider the following:

Your codelite version: 5.1
Is it a self compiled version of codelite: No
Your OS: Ubuntu 12.10
Compiler version: GNU makefile for g++/gcc
Your GDB version: GNU gdb (GDB) 7.5-ubuntu

2) If it is a Build problem (link error, compilation error, can't find include files etc.):
The *full* 'Build' window output - do not paste portion of the build window output. Its better posting the entire build window output rather than what YOU think is the problem:

MESSAGE: Entering directory `/home/USER/Downloads/test/dklj/'
/bin/sh -c 'make'
----------Building project:[ dklj - ]----------
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
0 errors, 0 warnings

How did you create your sources? I mean, do you have a .pro file? are you using codelite's QT plugin?
