are there any other Qt versions installed on your machine?

[ttvo]

Yes, there are 3 other Qt on my machines, Qt 4.7 beta for 32-bit Windows + Qt 4.4.3 for both 32-bit and 64-bit windows

I have the same problem, only the Qt Version is different (4.6.1).
I followed the instructions given on this side:
http://trac.webkit.org/wiki/BuildingQtOnWindows

Do someone have a hint for me?

Hello there,

I have to solve the problems you mentioned here today and found solution. Here is more than one bug in Webkit.pro and QMake which cause compilation errors.

First problem is in Webkit.pro file where is wrongly used variable QMAKE_HOST.arch instead of QMAKE_TARGET.arch, second problem for me was missing support for VS2010, so I have to update one IF statement in the Webkit.pro. And last problem was in QMake in test if we want to compile 32 or 64 bit version. This decision is made by PATH settings which is tested against incorrectly created string with two \\ chars instead of one \.

More detailed description how to solve all these problems is available on my blog here: http://blog.inventic.eu/2011/01/prob...indows-64-bit/

During my work with Qt I found more than this bugs and I'm interested if there is any step-by-step manual how can I contribute this fixes to Qt source codes. I never contribute to any open-source project, so this is new for me ;-). Thanks.

Ludek
