Calligra on Windows: QtDBus

Hi Boudewijn,

thanks for your response. I tried building using the emerge tool, and I 
have tried once more after your response. However, in both cases I get 
errors during the build process.

I am not sure if I now get the same errors as before, but at least in the 
current case I get compilation errors in the QtDBus component. I have 
pasted some of the compiler output below.

To me these seem like basic compiler dependent problems, but I am using 
Visual Studio 2010 as suggested in the build instructions.

Do you (or does anyone) have suggestions how to fix this?

Taco.

Hi Taco!

We've short-circuited the base dependency part of calligra by using KDE's 
windows emerge tool. That builds all the base parts, including dbus on 
windows, and that enables the Qt dbus library as well. THere's been some 
talk of making dbus optional or making it use windows' native ipc, but no 
code has been written yet.

You can find instructions on how to build calligra on windows at:

and
