How solve "Qt: Untested Windows version 10.0 detected!"


I'm trying to use cmake for a project that has a lot of dependencies. I updated to Windows 10 some week ago, starting from Windows 7, and now I get this error.

How can I solve this problem considering I won't downgrade to Windows 7?

Thanks to all


Solution

  • I think you use Qt version that was released before Windows 8 release. It might be Qt 4.8.x. To suspend the warning you need to update your Qt version or simply ignore that warning.

    UPDATE

    If the warning message makes real trouble, you can try to filter it out in the following way:

     #include <qapplication.h>
     #include <stdio.h>
     #include <stdlib.h>
    
     void myMessageOutput(QtMsgType type, const char *msg)
     {
         switch (type) {
         case QtDebugMsg:
             fprintf(stderr, "Debug: %s\n", msg);
             break;
         case QtWarningMsg:
             if (strstr(msg, "Qt: Untested Windows version") == 0) {
                 // Print warning if it is not "Qt: Untested Windows..."
                 fprintf(stderr, "Warning: %s\n", msg);
             }
             break;
         case QtCriticalMsg:
             fprintf(stderr, "Critical: %s\n", msg);
             break;
         case QtFatalMsg:
             fprintf(stderr, "Fatal: %s\n", msg);
             abort();
         }
     }
    
     int main(int argc, char **argv)
     {
         qInstallMsgHandler(myMessageOutput);
         QApplication app(argc, argv);
         ...
         return app.exec();
     }
