Qt 4.3.1 & MinGW 5.1.3 & MSYS 1.0 qmake problem

[mdecandia]

Hi all,
I'm trying to use qmake to generate the makefile for a simple application and compile it using Mingw make.
I have just a .cpp file and qmake has generate this .pro file:


################################################## ####################
# Automatically generated by qmake (2.01a) mer 10. ott 10:41:31 2007
################################################## ####################

TEMPLATE = app
TARGET =
DEPENDPATH += .
INCLUDEPATH += .

# Input
SOURCES += test1.cpp

If I try to generate makefile with qmake, it produces the following Makefile.Debug:
################################################## ###########################
# Makefile for building: testProject
# Generated by qmake (2.01a) (Qt 4.3.1) on: mer 10. ott 10:41:36 2007
# Project: testProject.pro

As you can see it is a wrong Makefile.Debug and MSys make print this error:

/usr/bin/make -f Makefile.Debug
make[1]: Entering directory `/c/DOCUME~1/user/testProject'
Makefile.Debug:62: *** missing separator. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory `/c/DOCUME~1/user/testProject'
make: *** [debug] Error 2

Anybody has this problem?
Any idea?

Thanks,
Michele

1.) why do you need msys? I wouldn't use it asit just makes trouble when compiling qt
2.) your call to qmake creates a makefile for msvc, not for mingw, add '-spec' option to qmake call and select the correct one for mingw.

So what should I put after "qmake -spec"?
