Hi there, I tried emerging KDE today and had some trouble compiling. I hope this has not been brought up before:
On msvc80 (2005) kdewin's own manifest tool mt.exe clashes with the one supplied by the compiler. With the standard environment cmake always detected the one in %KDEROOT%\bin first but assumed it was the Microsoft one. Thus it tried to compile like this: ----------------- D:/kderoot/bin/mt.exe /nologo /out:automoc4.exe.embed.manifest /notify_update /manifest automoc4.exe.intermediate.manifest ----------------- Obviously this won't work because the mt.exe called doesn't understand command-line options given with / as a prefix (I tried changing to "-" and it worked). Instead you end up with an empty manifest and binaries which don't find their runtime library. Now I'm wondering if there's a reason why the mt build is only excluded when using msvc90? I checked and both PSDK 2003 R2 and MSVC2005 seem to ship it (and it seems to work as well).
