It appears that one needs to use the DirectWrite text rendering
system on Windows.
So, I configured with -directwrite which causes some Qt source
files to #include "dwrite.h", which is good, but the only
dwrite.h I can find appears to be a C# binding (because it uses
the interface keyword.)
Has anyone successfully built Qt on Windows with -directwrite ?
Thanks.
