Thank you all! Good to know that Visual Studio Express won't do the job,
that already saved me some trouble. I might think about switching to
mingw before getting Visual Studio though...
Best regards,
Christian

Do you have Visual Studio? If so then the only thing you need is the
source:
http://get.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-4.6.2.zip
Extract that and the open a 64-bit Visual Studio Command Prompt
Start -> Programs -> Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 -> Visual Studio
Tools -> Visual Studio 2008 x64
Then cd into the directory where you extracted the source and run the
following
configure <insert any options you might want>
nmake
I don't think namke install works on Windows.
You should have a fully built Qt that you can build ParaView with.

Ah, great, thanks. What I just wondered: do I need the whole SDK
or just the runtime environment? It just turned out that if you
want to download the complete SDK you need to compile with mingw
anyway...

Hey Christian,
I recently had to compile PV for Windows7 64-bit, and it
didn't end up being that bad.
I used Qt 4.6.2 open source (everywhere). I ran these commands
from the 64-bit Visual Studio Pro command prompt (I can't
remember if I was running as Administrator) in the Qt source
directory:
configure.exe -release -plugin-sql-sqlite
nmake
nmake install
nmake took about 3 hours. (The sqlite plugin was for another
project.)
Not sure that the "nmake install" did anything. The last few
messages kept were saying something about not being able to do
a cyclic copy.
You can tell I'm not an expert in this, but I _did_ work just
fine.

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
