    gcc issue

    Hello,


    I have a strange, but common question. How to compile Qt4 apps using gcc?

    I know that Qt uses g++ compiler by default, but I'd like to do a compilation with gcc. Could I just re-edit a qmake generated makefile and replacing g++ with gcc?

    I wanna do this because I'm mixing my C program with Qt4.

    No, I don't think using gcc (for C language) to link to QT3/4/whatever is possible.
    QT is natively C++ - so a C compiler (linker to be precise) cannot handle the name-mangling and linking.

    However, g++ can compile normal C code - afterall C++ is a superset of C

    well, I managed with that.
    Qmake makes a mekafile for comiling C code too.
