      Hello everyone!!
      Is there any example or link how can I compile Qt 4.8.5 to 64 bits with vs 2010?
      According to: http://www.holoborodko.com/pavel/2011/02/01/how-to-compile-qt-4-7-with-visual-studio-2010/
      when I give the command \jom\jom.exe -j 4 , it gives error saying that no makefile found

        Hi,

        Here is a short version that I used many times:

        clean the system: no QTDIR, no QMAKESPEC, no update to PATH

        Open a Visual Studio 64bit command prompt (not the cross compiling)

        cd to your Qt 4.8.5 sources

        run configure with the options you want (no need to set the platform)

        call jom

        enjoy "insert name of favorite beverage" while it compiles

        Hope it'll get you going

            Forgot to mention; start from a clean source tree, you might have leftovers from your other build tentatives

              Your instructions seem to be working...but I have a question: the README file says to use "configure -prefix

                I never used that option on Windows, either I did in source build when there were no other possibilities and now just out of source builds.
