Is there any actual reason why you can't use the prebuilt MSVC binaries for MSVC 2017? I have had far more issues with MinGW than with MSVC in the past, and MSVC 2017 (version 15.9) is IMHO the far superior compiler, compared to MinGW: Build speed, application performance and system library support are much better in my case, not to forget the "native" pdb debug files which are needed for a few other debugging tools which you don't want to miss (ETW, profilers, post-mortem debugging, ...). IANAL, but the express version https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/de/vs/express/ which still exists for VS2017 should be OK even for commercial use cases? _______________________________________________ Interest mailing list Interest@qt-project.org https://lists.qt-project.org/listinfo/interest
