Actually, the latest Qt 4.4.x supports the free versions of Visual
Studio so you can compile the OpenSource version of Qt with Visual
Studio Express.
The ParaView devs can answer the rest of the questions with more
authority but if you were to try to compile against the downloaded
version of ParaView you would have to match their version of visual
studio and Qt which is entirely possible.
I have found that compiling Qt 4.4.2 on windows is now straight
forward and the build of ParaView after that is just as straight
forward.. unless you have an older machine then it just takes a
llloooooonnnggg time to compile everything.
On my 2.6Ghz Core 2 Duo with 2GB ram I think Qt 4 is taking a few
hours to compile.
