[SailfishDevel] Follow up on "Warnings shown as errors"

Tue May 27 05:44:08 UTC 2014

I've managed to isolate the problem. If I use the qmake.cmd which is the
default (proposed) command file for build/clean then warnings and errors
have the same icon and cannot double click on the icon so that the IDE can
take me directly to problematic line.

This happens in all cases and all templates.

On the other hand if I choose to use make.cmd for build/clean then
everything works. The errors have different icon from the warnings and I
can switch displaying all or only errors. Also double clicking on the icon
takes me directly on the problematic line.

I am not using any extra options.

What it doesn't work is debugging on the device, I haven't yet managed to
find which executable the IDE wants.
