You rejected my merge because it was based off of QTDIR -- which you state is the out-of-date way to build things, even though it's the ONLY instructions around and available for Mac.
Humm. I haven’t seen any merge request for ages, so I haven’t been able to reject any either. Anyway, implementing it with QTDIR is futile, since the building system doesn’t use QTDIR anymore. While you can use it to build, internally it isn’t used, but just converted to real vars. > > I also have another fix in my clone for the Windows side of things where > someone is having MINGW libraries explicitly loaded if the OS is Windows -- > instead of relying on the deployment XML file built at the time of compilation. This breaks things when it's an MSVC compiled version. I have created another merge request (#15) with these two bug fixes included.

It's problematic when we don't have a consistent build environment that everybody (newcomer and old contributor) alike can use. The project's ability to gain new contributors is inversely proportional to the difficulty of setting up a build environment. > > I only JUST now got my Windows build to work.

I could not figure out how to get the build system to behave at that level, so I copied the QtDesigner4.lib to QtDesignerd4.lib -- and it finally built without error. It's definitely not optimal, but it built. > You are really welcome to contribute to documentation and other pieces. Really, I’m trying to keep pieces together, but I can’t handle million different environments, so I’m focusing to those I can use. What you mean with build environment?
