QT5.0.1 from GIT configure fails for Window8

[Allan]

Here is my build.bat:
REM start of batch file…
PATH=%PATH%;C:\QT5\qtbase\gnuwin32\bin;C:\QT5\qtbase\bin
REM This is for OpenGL (The openGL version 2.1 and above required )
c:\qt5\configure -prefix C:\QT5\qtbase -opensource -make-tool jom -platform win32-msvc2010 -icu -I C:\icu\include -L C:\icu\lib64 -nomake examples -nomake tests
REM Next to call jom command…
REM end of Batch file…

Here is the output of configure:

Use configure.exe on Windows. Also, if you want to run with OpenGL, pass -opengl desktop to configure.

[Chris Kawa]

Actually you don't have to add ".exe". Windows has a bad reputation but it's not THAT stupid ;)

Where is the script run from? Maybe it's a working directory problem? I'm guessing based on the "has no top level .qmake.conf file" message.
Instead of calling c:\Qt5\configure try to cd to C:\Qt5 and then call configure.

btw. It's Qt, QT is Apple QuickTime ;)

I'm facing the same problem.
After I successfully build Qt using

configure -release -opensource -opengl desktop -nomake tests

then configure always failed with these errors ( I tried serveral configure options):

Project WARNING: You should probably load(qt_build_config) first in bootstrap.p
o for QtBootstrap, as the latter also load()s qt_module.
Project MESSAGE: Not doing so may lead to qt_module.prf overriding compiler/lin
er options in your .pro file.

ow what you are doing.
Project ERROR: Project has no top-level .qmake.conf file.
Qmake failed, return code 3

Even though I run
configure -release -opensource -opengl desktop -nomake tests
again, it also fails.

My working directory should be correct. I cd to D:\Qt5 then call configure.

[weiyuemin]

I found that D:\Qt5.qmake.conf doesn't exists, so I copy one from D:\Qt5\qtbae.qmake.conf
Then still the same error

[weiyuemin]

Add -no-vcproj option,

configure -debug-and-release -opensource -opengl desktop -nomake tests -no-vcproj

configure success, but build failed:

mt.exe : general error c101008d: Failed to write the updated manifest to the res

Finally, I successfully build it using jom.
