Having trouble trying to configure Qt Mobility when Qt has VS 2008 binaries

TwoGunBerg

Hi All;
Im trying to build the Qt Mobility Api. I'm on Windows 7 and i have the Qt built for VS2008 binaries installed. WHen i go to run the configure step it returns "Cannot find 'nmake', 'mingw32-make' or 'make' in your PATH". i have explicitly called out nmake in the path environment variable and mingw is not present because i'm using the precompiled Qt for VS 2008. I looked around for the answer and found that in an earlier version this issue was caused by a problem in the configure file. However it looks like this has been fixed. What else could be causing this? what can i do to fix this?

Thanks for any help.

If you are on your command line, can you call nmake of cl.exe from MSVS2008?

Do you use "Visual Studio Console" for building? If not, run it from Start menu->Programs->Visual Studio 2008->Visual Studio Tools , all needed environment variables will be set there.

I am using the VS console. here is the dump from the console command line:

C:\qtmobility>configure -prefix C:\qt\4.7.1
C:\qtmobility
Checking available Qt
4.7.1
Checking make
Cannot find 'nmake', 'mingw32-make' or 'make' in your PATH
Aborting.

i tried "configure -vc" with the same result.
I tried from a standard command line and set the path variable with the following command:
C:\qtmobility>set PATH=%PATH%;"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\bin"

same result.
