Compilation error in qdatetime

[GrahamL]

Hi
I amusing Qt5 with Visual Studio and one of my projects is giving the following error
@
c:\qt\qt5.1.1\5.1.1\msvc2012\include\qtcore\qdatetime.h(121): error C2589: '(' : illegal token on right side of '::'
1>c:\qt\qt5.1.1\5.1.1\msvc2012\include\qtcore\qdatetime.h(121): error C2059: syntax error : '::'
1> moc_EventSimulator.cpp
@

I can get a successful compilation by adding 'NOMINMAX' to the list of pre processor macros

I would be grateful if someone could explain why this error occurs

Thanks

Hi,

Do you have any functions that are named min/max ?
