Hi, There is Wine IDL compiler (http://www.winehq.org/docs/widl) which can be used with MinGW.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Cross_Compile_Mozilla_for_Mingw32 has a reference about it. Cheers, Cristian. ________________________________________ From: development-bounces+cristian.adam=nokia....@qt-project.org [development-bounces+cristian.adam=nokia....@qt-project.org] on behalf of ext Koehne Kai [kai.koe...@digia.com] Sent: Thursday, October 10, 2013 11:24 AM To: development@qt-project.org Subject: [Development] Proposal: Disable ActiveQt from MinGW Hi, I'm wondering whether we should remove ActiveQt from the MinGW binary packages, and skip it by default if we build for MinGW. I'm not an expert on ActiveQt, but my understanding is that it's of minor use without an IDL compiler. MinGW doesn't offer one, which is why all examples except the 'webbrowser' one are skipped for MinGW ... and that one crashes: https://bugreports.qt-project.org/browse/QTBUG-32140 So, any thoughts on this? Surely the bug above mentioned can be fixed, but is there any use of shipping ActiveQt for MinGW if there is no idl compiler? I understood you can't just use the Microsoft midl one ...
