Building on Windows

[Taco H. in den Bosch]

Hi Boudewijn,

If you have read my mail carefully then you know that I have only created 
my own project files because the official build instructions do not seem to 
work for me. At least one issue that I encountered is verified by Ivan 
Miraglia as a known issue, so others may be too.

I would prefer having a working official build procedure, but as a 
workaround I am working on my own solution. For all components but the 
'words' component this was relatively straightforward. The 'words' 
component is giving me more problems.

I may indeed have added source files that should be excluded. If so, I 
would like to know which. It is not the only problem, though. For example 
the meta object compiler result for KWFrameLayout does not compile, giving 
the error below. And excluding this file is not an option because other 
code in the project depends upon it.

With kind regards,

Taco.

 Error	1	error C2079: 'QHashNode<Key,T>::key' uses undefined class 
'KWPageStyle'	C:\oss\KDE\include\QtCore\qhash.h	220	1	words

Well, actually, Words compiles fine on Windows, and hasn't been broken for 
months now. The problem is that Taco manually recreated the build system 
and added code that currently is never compiled (intentionally) to his set 
of solutions.

He shouldn't do that.
