Qt: No android kits found

Question

The kit was there untill I updated Qt due to certain problem.

In option > android I have set everything up, such as the SDK, NDK, Ant and JDK.

Below NDK it says it has found 6 toolchains.

In the kits section it only auto-detected one, which is the desktop...

Answer 1

You have not selected any Qt version. You should select something like Qt 5.3 (Android_ARMV7) for that field.

You can also Goto Tools > Option > Android settings page and make sure Automatically create kits for Android tool chains is checked, and apply it. If you check this option, it will create the kit with an appropriate name.

Now, goto Tools > Option > Build and Run settings page, and click on Kits tab and check if Qt Creator created the Android kits.

Answer 2

I ran into this same problem - it was because I hadn't installed the QT compilers for Android.

To fix it, you need to go back to the installer (may need to uninstall the current version or install in a new directory) and expand the QT version you're using then check the relevant Android packages to be installed. Once the install is complete, set the SDK, NDK, JDK, and Ant and it should show the new kits in the build and run page.
