I assume you meant configure.bat > echo y | configure ^ > -opensource ^ > -fast ^ > -platform win32-g++ ^ > -dont-process ^ > -opengl desktop ^ > -nomake tests ^ > -nomake tools ^ > -nomake examples ^ > -nomake demos ^ > -nomake translations > There are no separate demos any more, so that's superfluous. Anyway, that doesn't do any harm. Actually you should be fine with just configure -opensource -opengl desktop -nomake tests -nomake examples -nomake translations I haven't used "-fast" and "-dont-process" myself, maybe that one causes problems. >I then run qmake on the qtsdk.pro with the following command ... > > qtbase\bin\qmake.exe ^ > -r ^ > -Wnone ^ > qtsdk.pro ^ > CONFIG*=silent ^ > -after ^ > CONFIG*=warn_off You don't have to run qmake on your own (and you shouldn't).

Anyhow, may I suggest starting with the known and tried process in README before refining it ? Regards Kai PS: jom also works fine with MinGW, so this is a great way to speed up compilation. _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest
