I'd like to use Qt but can't because...
1. I can't use Visual Studio 2010 with it.
2. Windows 7 is not supported.
When will these things change?
I don't use visual studio to develop Qt applications.
I can't believe compiled code does not work on windows 7 even if it's not explicitly 'supported'
Unfortunately or otherwise, VS 2010 is our development environment and I am required to use it.
An while it's true that apps written with Qt will "run" on Windows 7, they do not look like native apps because they still use Windows XP fonts and styles. We need true Windows 7 compatibility.
The Nokia
Supported Platforms link stipulates that the Windows 7 platform along with MSVC 2010 are Tier 2 supported.
True the windows style hasn't been incorporated yet, but should only be a matter of later on making the updates to reflect that style update.
TIer 2 support is not good enough for a serious developer and I don't believe there is a workable plugin for VS 2010 yet anyway.
Yes, perhaps it is only a matter of time before Qt apps developed for Windows 7 actually *look* like Windows 7 applications but how long has Win 7 been out now? Windows 8 is due in 2012
