Hi,

I was able to configure Qt statically on my Win XP machine by compiling from source. But does anyone know it is possible to build a static and UNIVERSAL Qt for Win XP? I'd like to be able to compile programs statically for Mac using Windows.
I'm very thankful for any help you could provide. Sorry for posting this is in the general forum.
Sincerely, Eric.

Thank you!

The confusing thing is that "Universal Qt" is possible with Mac. Why is that?

"Universal" in Mac world means that the binary will work on both flavours of Mac (PowerPC and Intel). It doesn't mean that it will work on non-Macs.

Thanks for explaining it. I guess pretty much my only way to compile my program for a Mac is to get a Mac. I have not yet found a way how Windows could do it for Mac?

Either you will have to find a cross-compiler or use virtualization as Radagast has suggested.
