I want to use Qt Creator as my IDE, not Visual Studio and want to get VTK to work for Qt Creator. The problem is that it CMake doesn't let me select Qt Creator as a compiler in their code and I don't have any other compilers that are compatible. I don't mind rebuilding Qt Creator with Visual Studio - although I'm not exactly sure how to do that. However, if I could use another compiler that would produce compatible code to Qt Creator, then I would prefer that option, even if it meant downloading another compiler just to build VTK - and then I could hopefully get VTK to work in Qt Creator. <br>

The message "It Appears you're Trying to use Visual Studio with Qt built by mingw" is due to the fact that you can not use Qt in visual studio if Qt was built with mingw. If you want to use Qt with Visual Studio, compile Qt with Visual Studio.

I noticed Code Blocks could be used as a generator in CMake. I'm guessing I could download this and use it as the generator and then it (might??) be compatible with Qt Creator. I'd rather find another way around this problem if possible, but if I have to, I can go down this route.
