      Qt Creator 2.5.82 (2.6.0-beta) - have tested with 2.4.1 as well
      From revision 66a19cc457 (binary package qt-creator-windows-2.5.82-233-2012-09-11_00-02-15)

    Description

      Following on from this, Qt Creator can't seem to find cl.exe, even with the appropriate initialisation script. See attached screenshots for more Creator environment info.

      Steps to reproduce:

      1. File > New File or Project... > Non-Qt Project > Plain C++ Project
      2. Build Project

      The build fails:

      Build environment in Creator:

      C:\Dev\qtbase-debug\bin;C:\Dev\qt-creator-windows-2.5.82-233-2012-09-11_00-02-15\bin;C:\Dev\Perl\site\bin;C:\Dev\Perl\bin;C:\Dev\MinGW\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn\;C:\Program Files\jEdit;C:\Program Files\doxygen\bin;C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\Cg\bin;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Program Files\TortoiseGit\bin;C:\Program Files\Notepad++;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Dev\Python27

      The initialisation script used for msvc2008 (as a kit in Creator) adds the correct path to PATH when run manually from the command line:

      c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE;c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\BIN;c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Tools;c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5;c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727;c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\VCPackages;C:\Program Files\\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin;C:\Dev\qt-creator-windows-2.5.82-233-2012-09-11_00-02-15\bin;C:\Dev\Perl\site\bin;C:\Dev\Perl\bin;C:\Dev\MinGW\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn\;C:\Program Files\jEdit;C:\Program Files\doxygen\bin;C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\Cg\bin;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Program Files\TortoiseGit\bin;C:\Program Files\Notepad++;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Dev\Python27

      When using the Visual Studio 2008 Command Prompt (from which I can build the same project without problems), the path is identical:

      c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE;c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\BIN;c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\Tools;c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v3.5;c:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727;c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\VCPackages;C:\Program Files\\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin;C:\Dev\qt-creator-windows-2.5.82-233-2012-09-11_00-02-15\bin;C:\Dev\Perl\site\bin;C:\Dev\Perl\bin;C:\Dev\MinGW\bin;C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;c:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn\;C:\Program Files\jEdit;C:\Program Files\doxygen\bin;C:\Program Files\NVIDIA Corporation\Cg\bin;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\DTS\Binn\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\PrivateAssemblies\;C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0;C:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Program Files\TortoiseGit\bin;C:\Program Files\Notepad++;C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin;C:\Dev\Python27

      I can verify that the TMP and TEMP environment variables are writable from within Creator.
