Never mind. Forget that thought. You obviously had the dll subdirectory in your PATH because the test of our xfig driver on your platform was fine. So I think two conditions must be met to solve the puzzling issue of why test-dyn-drv fails to load the qt.so plug-in while essentially the equivalent qt.so test (and a lot more) succeeds with "x01c -dev qtwidget" on your platform. These conditions are a developer with access to Qt on Windows needs to (1) replicate this issue and (2) diagnose exactly what the trouble is with the Windows run-time test tools they are aware of. Of course, until we can find a solution continue to work around the issue with -DTEST_DYNDRIVERS=OFF. Alan __________________________ Alan W.
