[Interest] Qt5.4 VS2008 Win7 DirectX SDK (June 2010) build fails.

Hi,


You are trying to build angle with MSVC 2008 and DirectX which is no longer supported. For details check the reference platforms:


http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/qt5-5.4/supported-platforms.html#reference-configurations


Angle with DirectX requires a fairly up-to-date MS compiler. Chances are you may not even be able to build it with 2010 either. You could try to build angle with OpenGL.


MSVC2008 only really exists to support Windows CE only and Win CE does not use Angle.

Hi everyone,

I am having no joy building Qt 5.4 for Windows 7 using Visual Studio 2008 and DirectX 9 (June 2010) (these are required).

1.  I downloaded the zip from here:  http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/#

2.  My VS2008 DirectX settings are correct:

3.  DirectX is installed correctly (other projects using it build fine with VS2008):

4.  My qtvars.bat contains:

CALL "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat"
set PATH=C:\Qt\Qt5Build\qtbase\bin;C:\Qt\Qt5Build\qtrepotools\bin;C:\Qt\Qt5Build\gnuwin32\bin;%PATH%
set QMAKESPEC=C:\Qt\Qt5Build\qtbase\mkspecs\win32-msvc2008

and is run by calling:

%SystemRoot%\system32\cmd.exe /E:ON /V:ON  /k C:\Qt\qtvars.bat


5.  Using the console fired up by through (4), I configured Qt with:

configure.bat -opensource -nomake tests -no-compile-examples -confirm-license -mp

(the complete configuration output is attached)


6.  Compiling with "jom" fails with:

7.  Not surprisingly, simply running "nmake" fails in pretty much the same way (I had to try just to make 100% sure it wasn't "jom" related)

8.  My environment is set up correctly according to:

http://doc-snapshot.qt-project.org/qt5-5.4/windows-requirements.html


9.  I previously built Qt 5.3.2 on the exact same machine, with the exact same configuration settings and the exact same qtvars.bat, VS2008 etc configurations with success.

It is obvious that, for some or other reason, the D3D headers cannot be found with the current setup.

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated!

Regards,
William
