[Interest] Qt5.5, VS2013 chain, compile warnings and linking errors

[Gunnar Roth]

I hardy believe Windows v7.1A sdk is going to work with VS2013.
AFAIK VS 2013 RTM includes the Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) forWindows 8.1

Why don’t you just remove the old sdks patches from your .pro file and retry?


regards,
Gunnar Roth
