Cannot create a project in C ++

I am creating a C ++ project that I received from a previous developer. When I try to compile it, I get this eror (I use VS2012 Professional):

\bin\rcc.exe -name resources resources.qrc -o debug\qrc_resources.cpp 1> Moc'ing aboutdialog.h... 1> The system cannot find the path specified. 1> Moc'ing action.h... 1> UIC aboutdialog.ui 1> The system cannot find the path specified. 1> UIC mainwindow.ui 1> The system cannot find the path specified. 1> RCC resources.qrc 1> The system cannot find the path specified. 1>C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\V110\Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(172,5): error MSB6006: "cmd.exe" exited with code 3. 1>Done executing task "CustomBuild" -- FAILED. 1>Done building target "CustomBuild" in project "sv.vcxproj" -- FAILED.

What is the problem and how to fix it?

The project uses custom build scripts, which depend on the Qt library and its tools. You need to at least download and install Qt (most likely version 4.8, Qt 5 has just been released), as well as possibly the Qt add-on available for Visual C ++.

I had the same problem, but my script was a bit different:

  • VS2015 (QT plugin installed)
  • Installed and configured QT SDK

This problem happened to me because I made "git clean -fdx" in my solutions folder and it deleted all the moc files because they were added to gitignore.

To restore MOC files, I had to:

  • close VS2015
  • reopen solution
  • rebuild

After that, the moc files were restored and I can build correctly, but the application does not start.
