static building qt, error: declaration of c function conflicts

[BlueWizard]

Hello,

I'm trying to build Qt statically with the latest version of mingw (in windows), I followed the Qt help section "Deploying an Application on Qt/Windows"
to build Qt staically, but the process is stopped by few errors.

The 'configure -static' worked but mingw32-make fails with these errors, can you help please? Thanks in advance.

For info: I'm using the latest version of MinGW packages
(updated to december/08):

C:\dev\qt\4.4.3>configure -static

Reading C:/dev/qt/4.4.3/demos/browser/browser.pro
Reading C:/dev/qt/4.4.3/tools/qdoc3/qdoc3.pro

Qt is now configured for building. Just run mingw32-make.
To reconfigure, run mingw32-make confclean and configure.

After that, I tried to build Qt using this "mingw32-make -B -i sub-src" (i.e.
ignoring those errors) and waiting about 3 hours, then I opened eclipse environement and tried to
compile a simple project. I have these 2 errors
(..\mingw32\bin\ld.exe: cannot find -lQtGuid collect2:
ld returned 1 exit status)

[BlueWizard]

ok, I have solved this problem.

The solution consists in modifying the winbase.h, parts that contain the 'volatile' type modifier near the formal parameter declaration in a few functions.

Kind Regards

Hello.

I have the some problem, could you explain more how modify the winbase.h?, because I don't have any volatile type in my winbase.h.

Thank you.

[nnnazareno]

I also have the same problem.
I found the winbase.h in MinGW but I don't know how to configure it.
Please explain how to configure it?

Hi
From yesterday I begin to have the problem with building Qt projects with mingw32-make in WinXP
my conf is OK
Before yesterday all was OK
I have the next error:
