Qt 4.6.2 with VS2005

[Leolander]

Hi,

I am trying to use Qt 4.6.2 with vs2005, I have run configure and nmake, everything seems fine. However, I am not able to use the phonon libraries, it seems that the phonon libraries are not being built. It can't seem to find the phonond4.lib. May I know how to resolve this problem, am I missing out a step here?
Thanks

Did you have Windows platform SDK and DirectX SDK installed ?
Without that the phonon libraries wont be built. Also you will need to set the paths for both sdks... you can find in .bat files from those sdk's.

Hi,

I will get these 2 sdks installed, but how do I set the paths?

Include these before running configure.exe -

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat"
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft DirectX SDK (November 2008)\Utilities\Bin\dx_setenv.cmd"
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\setenv.cmd"

I usually follow the above rule.

Hi,

I am a bit of a newbie, may I know how and where to include these paths.

When you have the directX and platform SDK installed, you will see those paths on your system. I just gave the paths which were on my system.
And I guess you aint a newbie to search your computer for those files

Hi,

I managed to find those files, however, you mentioned to include it before running configure. How do I include it? Is it as an environment variable or as.......?

I guess you run configure from command prompt ?
From command prompt, you need to just call those batch files..
for eg - "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\Tools\vsvars32.bat" and press enter.
These batch files will set the environment accordingly.
Psst : Open those files in notepad and see what they do,,, if you are curious enough

Hi,

Thanks for the help, it finally works. I tried using the windows sdk 2008 at first but it can't work, then I found the one which is the same as the path specified, it works. Thanks again
