\title Adding Kits
\QC groups settings used for building and running projects as kits
to make cross-platform and cross-configuration
development easier. Each kit consists of a set of values that define one
environment, such as a device, compiler, Qt version, and debugger command
to use, and some metadata, such as an icon and a name for the kit. Once
you have defined kits, you can select them to build and run projects.
\QC supports development for the desktop and for the following types of
devices:
\list
\li Android Device
\li Bare Metal Device
\li BlackBerry 10 Device
\li Generic Linux Device
\li iOS Device
\li iOS Simulator
\li QNX Device
\endlist
To add kits:
\list 1
\li Select \uicontrol Tools > \uicontrol Options > \uicontrol {Build & Run}
> \uicontrol Kits > \uicontrol Add.
\image qtcreator-kits.png
To clone the selected kit, select \uicontrol Clone.
\li In the \uicontrol Name column, double-click the kit name to change it.
\li In the \uicontrol{Device type} field, select the type of the device.
Double-click the icon next to the field to select the image that is
displayed in the kit selector for this kit. You can use any
image in a supported file format (for example, PNG). The image is
scaled to the size 64x64 pixels. For example, using the compiler
logo as an icon allows you to easily see, which compiler is used to
build the project for the selected kit.
\li In the \uicontrol Device field, select a device.
\li In the \uicontrol Sysroot field, specify the directory where the device
image is located. If you are not cross-compiling, leave this field
empty.
\li In the \uicontrol {Compiler} field, select the compiler required
to build the project. You can add compilers to the list
if they are installed on the development PC, but were not detected
automatically. For more information, see \l{Adding Compilers}.
\li In the \uicontrol Environment field, select \uicontrol Change to modify
environment variable values for build and run environments in
the \uicontrol {Edit Environment Changes} dialog. For more information
about how to add and remove variable values, see \l{Batch Editing}.
\li In the \uicontrol Debugger field, select the debugger to debug the project
on the target platform. \QC automatically detects available
debuggers and displays a suitable debugger in the field. You can
add debuggers to the list. For more information, see
\l{Adding Debuggers}.
\li In the \uicontrol {Qt version} field, select the Qt version to use for
building the project. You can add Qt versions to the list if they
are installed on the development PC, but were not detected
automatically. For more information, see \l{Adding Qt Versions}.
\QC checks the directories listed in the \c{PATH} environment
variable for the qmake executable. If a qmake executable is found,
it is referred to as \b{Qt in PATH} and selected as the Qt
version to use for the \uicontrol Desktop kit that is created by default.
\li In the \uicontrol {Qt mkspec} field, specify the name of the mkspec
configuration that should be used by qmake. If you leave this field
empty, the default mkspec of the selected Qt version is used.
\endlist
