QT MySql connectivity using Windows XP, Qt Creator 4.5.2(windows 32 bit)

Platform: Windows XP, Qt Creator Ide 4.5.2

MySql is setup here as well.

I want to establish database connection with Qt and mysql. The line

QSqlDatabase db = QSqlDatabase::addDatabase("QMYSQL");

generates error like below: QSqlDatabase: QMYSQL driver not loaded QSqlDatabase: available drivers: QSQLITE QODBC3 QODBC

It seems QMYSQL driver is absent here. What to do ?

I recommend reading the following excellent guide: http://christopher.rasch-olsen.no/2009/04/14/qt-45-and-mysql-plugin-with-mingw-on-windows-xp/ (with comments) - it helped me to solve exactly the same problem.

You need to build the Qt/MySQL driver. See the documentation.

The output in my pc as instructed in the documentation is:

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\n make.exe"' : return code '0x2'*

What might be the problem? Is it the nmake or something else? I did go through the web but I'm stuck here.
