Qt 3.3.5 with canvas and xml

[bmahf]

I am working on an old application my company is still supporting, and it uses Qt 3.3.5. I need to recompile this Qt source in order to add both canvas and xml ability. The person who originally compiled this is gone now, and I am not very familiar with Qt 3.x configuration. If someone could help me to configure and build so that I can add canvas and xml, that would be great.

In particular, when I run "configure -debug", the configure output line that starts "OpenGL support" shows that this is not supported.

Later on, I get the following lines:

For C:\MAK\ASOC\TrainerMEM\3p\Qt\examples\canvas\canva s.pro
Project file not generated because all requirements not met:
canvas

For C:\MAK\ASOC\TrainerMEM\3p\Qt\examples\xml\outliner \outliner.pro
Project file not generated because all requirements not met:
xml
For C:\MAK\ASOC\TrainerMEM\3p\Qt\examples\xml\tagreade r\tagreader.pro
Project file not generated because all requirements not met:
xml
For C:\MAK\ASOC\TrainerMEM\3p\Qt\examples\xml\tagreade r-with-features\tagreader-with-features.pro
Project file not generated because all requirements not met:
xml

I changed my configure line to "configure -debug -qconfig full", thinking this might be a requirement, but it didn't help. I got the same output.

The build output was attached in another forum, and I also attached the canvas.pro and outliner.pro files in case they would help. I'm hoping you can just link there using the following links. If you want to see these files and cannot from these links, please let me know and I'll send them to you.

Thanks for any help you can give...

Ok, so I put these files up on PasteBin for a month, so I'm sharing them that way instead. Here are the links:

Hi,

I'm not sure how many people here have experience with Qt 3.

Try subscribing to the Interest mailing list (http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/interest ) and posting there -- you might have more luck there. It's where you can find people who've worked with Qt for many many years.

Hi,

You might have to also get an older system/visual studio combo in order to compile it. If possible you should consider porting your application to Qt 4 since it provides the Qt3Support library. I can't tell how much work it would represent but it might be a good move for future maintenance

Thanks. Porting is not really an option right now, unless this thing just refuses to compile. I'll get on the mailing list.
