MS C++ issue

[sepehr]

I had VS6 installed on my computer,then I installed qt using qt installer package ,and installed mingw too.now I'm trying to compile a plugin and when I enter make command to start compiling,it doesn't use mingw ,it uses MS Visual C++ 6 ! and it fails to compile,some bunch of errors:


g:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/VC98/include/istream:34: instantiated
from `std::basic_istream<_E, _Tr>::sentry::sentry(std::basic_istream<_E, _Tr>&,
bool) [with _E = wchar_t, _Tr = std::char_traits<wchar_t>]'
g:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/VC98/include/istream:564: instantiate
d from here

I don't want qt to use MS C++,I totally want it to use mingw,how can I do that?

Use Visual Studios Express 2008. VC6 is no longer supported since it is 10 years old.

Well, I would be interested in a solution for this one, too. Not because I still use VS6 (which is waaay beyond it's "dead"line ;)), but because I want to know how Qt determines what build environment to use if there are more than one available, which seems to be the case here.

This is detected by the configure script when you build Qt. See "configure -help" for instructions.

Ok, thank you.
