It'll be hard as Qt4 Open Source (and I assume this is the one you are interested in) doesn't support Borland Compiler, so you have to use MinGW. I don't think building Borland enabled installation is possible as it would require a running borland-oriented qmake.

well you see i have the online book "C++ gui programming with Qt3" and it says that the demo CD along with it has Qt3 (open source) which can be installed with borland IDE...and was just curious....

A trivial query though: will it help if i set the include paths to the Qtdir???

I have never tried it myself and don't have much of an idea.. hope that it might help you..

Qt3 and Qt4 differ. There was no Open Source version of Qt3 for Windows, so surely no Qt3 Open Source version for Borland compilers. Qt4 open source is only supported by MinGW. It can also be used with MSVC but you have to hack the installation and use illegal components. A list of supported platforms (http://www.trolltech.com/developer/platforms/supported.html) is present at Trolltech site, take a look at it yourself.

Qt 4 does not support the Borland compiler, whether you have the open source or commercial edition.

It's not only a question of build system, as far as I can recall the Borland C++ compiler is unable to compile part of the Qt 4 source code.
