Compile Errors Building Qt 4.6.3 With VS2008 For Windows x86_64 platforms

[elemings]

Greetings,

I've run into a few compile errors while building Qt 4.6.3 for Windows x86_64 platforms with VS 2008. First, I should mention that I configured the build like this:

@C:/Build/Qt/4.6.3-x86_64-vs2008> C:/Source/Qt/4.6.3/configure -prefix C:/Install/Qt/4.6.3 -debug_and_release -shared ...@

The first errors I ran into were similar to this:

@...
qprocess.cpp
c:/build/qt/4.6.3-x86_64-vs2008/include/qtcore/private/../../../../../../Source/Qt/4.6.3/src/corelib/io/qiodevice_p.h(161) : warning C4267: 'initializing' : conversion from 'size_t' to 'int', possible loss of data
qtextstream.cpp
c:/Install/Qt/4.6.3/src/corelib/io/qtextstream.cpp(3396) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'qtextstream.moc': No such file or directory
qtemporaryfile.cpp
c:/build/qt/4.6.3-x86_64-vs2008/include/qtcore/private/../../../../../../Source/Qt/4.6.3/src/corelib/io/qiodevice_p.h(161) : warning C4267: 'initializing' : conversion from 'size_t' to 'int', possible loss of data
qresource.cpp
qresource_iterator.cpp
...@

I determined that the moc_*.cpp source files were missing dependencies on the related *.moc files and were not therefore being generated. So I did a 'nmake mocables' and continued building until I hit my latest snag:

@...
moc_qanimationgroup.cpp
moc_qsequentialanimationgroup.cpp
tmp/moc/debug_shared/moc_qsequentialanimationgroup.cpp(85) : error C2027: use of undefined type 'QSequentialAnimationGroupPrivate'
c:/build/qt/4.6.3-x86_64-vs2008/src/corelib/tmp/moc/debug_shared/../../../../../../../../Source/Qt/4.6.3/src/corelib/animation/qsequentialanimationgroup.h(56) : see declaration of 'QSequentialAnimationGroupPrivate'
tmp/moc/debug_shared/moc_qsequentialanimationgroup.cpp(85) : error C2227: left of '->_q_uncontrolledAnimationFinished' must point to class/struct/union/generic type
moc_qparallelanimationgroup.cpp
tmp/moc/debug_shared/moc_qparallelanimationgroup.cpp(73) : error C2027: use of undefined type 'QParallelAnimationGroupPrivate'
c:/build/qt/4.6.3-x86_64-vs2008/src/corelib/tmp/moc/debug_shared/../../../../../../../../Source/Qt/4.6.3/src/corelib/animation/qparallelanimationgroup.h(55) : see declaration of 'QParallelAnimationGroupPrivate'

moc_qpauseanimation.cpp
...@

The problem is that the generated moc_*.cpp sources are not including the related private header files. I'm not sure what to do about this one. Anyone have any suggestions (other than "Don't build outside the source directory" or "Don't configure with an install prefix")?

Thanks.

“Don’t build outside the source directory” But why do you build outside?

So multiple developers can build multiple configurations from the same source tree without wrecking your own or one another's builds.

I have almost the same problem. Did somebody find a solution? Thanks!
