[Marble-devel] HOWTO (in progress) - build a libmarble application on windows with Qt Creator, MinGW, CMake

Fri May 21 12:23:13 CEST 2010

Hi.

As there is actually no more issue for building marble on windows I just
wrote on howto on the wiki/techbase :
http://techbase.kde.org/Projects/Marble/WindowsCompiling
Simon I took some of your hints.
If anyone has something to say.. let's talk!
CU
Sylvain.
ps: I still can't run ma application...I tried with a deferent version of
mingw but i does not build as qmake was not build to use this version
surely.
I found this<http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/19187-Qwt-Data_Plot-Example-Runtime-Error>.
need to reboot to test it. we will see....
