Can't build sub-src on win in latest 4.7-stable pull

rickbkis

I don't want to build the whole wide world - I'd like to be able to use it before the next release.

I used to be able to configure and then 'nmake sub-src'.

Now, that doesn't seem to work. How do I just make the Qt libs, now?

Looks like something called QT_BUILD_PARTS has to be set somewhere?

ok, I'm guessing that I need to invoke configure as follows:

configure QT_BUILD_PARTS="tools libs docs" <other flags>

if those are the only things I want. Is that correct?

I leave out the stuff this way:

@
configure -nomake "tools examples demos docs translations" .. other options
@

rickbkis

ok. I'll give it a try. Does that work on win, too?

Ok, -nomake has traditionally not worked on windows. Has something changed and it is working, now? It doesn't seem to...

I find that if I start the build (after configure), let it proceed a little ways and then kill it, I can then do 'nmake sub-src' like before.

Sure wish they'd make this easier - at least consistent.
