Question

I tried to compile a simple GUI application using Qt5.0.1 in Visual Studio 2012, but the following error occurred:

qtmaind.lib(qtmain_win.obj) : error LNK2038: mismatch detected for '_MSC_VER': value '1600' doesn't match value '1700' in moc_testqt5.obj 

How to solve this problem? thanks!
