It's been a while since I've built avogadro on windows, but the
instructions point to MSVC:

Hope this helps,

I have been building Avogadro 1.1.x on Windows with MSVC 2008, and I
think 2010 more recently, using the latest Qt 4.8 binaries at the
time. That should work, my hard drive failed on that machine so I need
to get this spun up again. For Avogadro 2 I use Qt (5.3 I think last
time, want to try with 5.5) using MSVC 2010.

They both have superbuilds that can make it easier to get all of the
dependencies, or you can get them for yourself.

Hope that helps.

[Avogadro-devel] Build Avogadro in Windows from source. MinGW or MSVC?

[Carlos Salgado]

Dear all,

I am trying to build the developer version of Avogadro in Windows, but I am
not sure if I have to use MSVC or MinGW, and the corresponding version of
Qt. I have build it in UNIX with ccmake-2.8.11 and it works like a charm. I
have introduced modifications to the Gaussian calculation interface, for
example. Avogadro is a very nice project.

Could sombody, please, tell me which version of Qt in windows to use, and
if I need to build it using MinGW or MSVC? I would really appreciate it.

Thank you everybody.
