Visual C++ versus QT Creator [closed]

Question

I usually code in Java and C#, but there is a project that I have to use C++. My question is what is the advantage and disadvantages of using QT Creator over Visual Studio Express or the other way for me, I know there are similar questions like this but they date back to at least 2 years ago.

I have to note that I am writing my system only for windows and I am not intending to make it multi-platform.

Answer 1

Visual Studio is the better IDE but Qt Creater does for free what VS will not (processing MOC files, UI files, QRC files, tr calls, etc...) Those have to be done manually in VS in pre and post build steps. Creater also has the advantage of being the same on all platforms.
