help - need to build Qt libraries on 64Bit VS2008

[caius9090]

Hi,

I need to build the Qt libraries on a 64Bit system using VS2008. I checked a lot online and couldn't find a definitive guide to do this. I am not an expert programmer and am looking for a easy to understand guide to achieve this. Could somebody please help?

I looked at the following link but it is very cryptic and couldn't understand what I need to do.

Thanks in advance,

Fairly straightforward. Just go through the motions of building it for win32 BUT invoke the win64 tool chain by calling nmake from the "Visual Studio 2008 x64 Win64 Command Prompt".

That's the problem. I don't know how to build in win32. In the past I have used the binaries from the Qt website directly.
