Hi!

I am about to install the latest Paraview on a 64-Bit Windows System. When doing this on a 32-bit Windows I made a bad and painful experience when trying to setup everything starting with a self-compiled QT. I finally succeeded when I skipped that QT compiling part and used a QT binary instead that was compiled for VisualStudio (this is important). However, you cannot download a 64Bit binary of QT for Windows in general.

I am shivering in fear when thinking about what will happen if I try to do this QT compiling on the 64-Bit System. I see my self doing this all over and over without success, as it happened before on the 32Bit system. So I wanted to be sure if that 64Bit version of QT is actually needed for 64Bit Paraview. Maybe the binary 32Bit suffices already?

If not, does anyone have experience in this? I stopped trying after at least 3 differently parameterized compilations of QT turned out to not be what Paraview was looking for. If I need to, how would I compile QT to make it work with Paraview64 for Visual Studio?


Best regards,
Christian
