Re: [cdt-dev] UI for setting MinGW location

Preference is easiest to use (UX first). I’ll do one up.

I’ll also add a Category for Toolchains under Build so that we can add settings for other toolchains as well.

Doug.

Subject: Re: [cdt-dev] UI for setting MinGW location

Hi Doug,

There is no UI for that. One way is to add the mingw\bin folder to the PATH environment variable. But a preference would be more straightforward IMO. Alternatively, I use the Cross GCC toolchain to set the path, but then you lose some MinGW-specific things from the toolchain.

Hey gang,

Do we have any UI for setting the MinGW location? I vaguely remember something being there but maybe not.

If not, does anyone mind me adding in a preference where users can set one? I just downloaded Qt which includes MinGW but CDT can’t find it since it’s inside the Qt install.

As a result, the toolchain isn’t listed when I go to create a Qt project.

Thanks.
