WinMain@16 compiler error in Qt examples

[Tvt204]

Thanks for your suggestions.

I'm not sure what you mean by building from the Qt command prompt (which means the answer is probably no), but I did a clean all on both projects.

The compile output for PaintT is:

Configuration unchanged, skipping QMake step.

The compiler output (all 602 lines of it) for stickman is attached.

The folder name 2009.05_new is because this is my second try at installing qt. (I uninstalled the first but the folder wouldn't delete and qt won't install in an existing directory - the original folder is gone now.) The re-install didn't allow me to compile the examples.

As for the MS compilers, I do have VS 2003, 2005, and 2008 compilers installed. I hesitate to uninstall these as I'm not sure Microsoft allows re-installs of VB 2005 Express now that you can't get it anymore.
