[Interest] Building the latest Qt 5.X

[Scott Aron Bloom]

I don’t want to build from git ☺

Since we deploy this on multiple developers boxes, we tent to automate the build process, so a prepacked download file (tgz/zip) works best

Scott,

here is an article on how to build Qt 5: http://qt-project.org/wiki/Building_Qt_5_from_Git
PS. It is strange that you have not found it by yourself since it is the first result given by Google on query 'build qt5 from git'.

Regards,
Dmitry.

Why not? Sure it does.

The compiler is binary compatible. You don't have to do anything.

Just use the MinGW that comes with Qt for the 32-bit build. I'm not sure what the state of mingw64 is -- some have had luck, some others haven't. VS 2012, 2013, and 2015 for 64-bit have been working fine.

Fortgot to ask..

What version of OpenSSL does Qt build against on windows?
