[Qt-interest] Mingw/GCC via QtC for windows - Defines with spaces problem(?)

[Garth Dahlstrom]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to pass an define into my application in Qt Creator for
Windows.  I'm hitting a problem with properly escaping defines that have
spaces in their payload.

I can do this in my .pro file:

DEFINES += SETTINGS_FILE=\\\".mixxx.cfg\\\"

and that works.

However  when I try every escaping combination I can think for this:

DEFINES += SETTINGS_PATH=\\\"Local Settings/Application Data/Mixxx/\\\"

I either end up with

--> missing terminating " char

or something mangled before it gets to gcc  (i.e. -DSETTINGS_PATH=\"Local
-DSettings/Application -DData/Mixxx/\" )

I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this type of situation on
Windows and if so if it is even possible to workaround?

Cheers,

-G
