Hi Richard: Are you specifying one of -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug or -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Release? It appears from the last few messages in the thread at http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.programming.tools.cmake.user/36994/focus=37032 that you have to be specific this way to get good Qt results with MinGW on Windows. In other words, there appears to be something wrong with the CMake default in this special case (MinGW and Qt on Windows). There is a newly created CMake bug report about this issue at http://public.kitware.com/Bug/view.php?id=12301. But the easy workaround appears to be to specifically set one of the two choices above. As you know, I once got the qt device driver to work on wine, but then lost it again. I ascribed that failure as being due to incompatible MinGW versions. But in future wine/MinGW tests I am always going to set CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE to one of the above to see if that improves reliability. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
