[Qt-interest] Qmake and .pro troubles Qt 4.5.0

[Kenneth Beck]

I just installled Qt 4.5.0 for Visual C++2003 IDE, and also installed 
the new Qt Creator, in a separate user environment in Win XP SP3. I then 
compiled a program I have been supporting for years (since Qt 4.2..) 
using the Qt Creator and Mingw compiler. I now want to go back to Visual 
C++. I have added some scoping in the .pro file to be able to switch 
between the two, but things are not working right. The entire .pro file 
is listed at the end of this.

1. The debug and release sections both get called, either calling qmake 
from the command line in a console window, or in the IDE, using Qt/Open 
Solution... In fact, it appears that the entire .pro file gets processed 
3 times, that seems new behavior, I do not recall seeing that before.
Do I have a subtle syntax error in the .pro file that is causeing this?

2. When I set my QMAKESPEC to win32-msvc.net and call qmake from the 
command line, I get this message:
Project MESSAGE: The mkspec/win32-msvc.net is now deprecated, use 
win32-msvc2002 or win32-msvc2003
If I change to win32-msvc2003, then in the IDE I get the opposite, that 
win32-msvc.net is the preferred setting. When I look in the folder 
Qt\4.5.0\mkspecs\win32-msvc2003, I see that the header there just refers 
to the win32-msvc.net header!
Why the message about win32-msvc.net being deprecated??

3. I cant seem to consistently get the IDE to recognize the
LIBS += $(QTDIR)/plugins/designer/XYPlot0d.lib
statement. Sometimes I get the XYPlot0d.lib and sometimes not. So I get 
linker errors when it is not there.

How do I avoid all this. Are there syntax errors in my .pro (see below)?

Here is my environment (WinXP SP3):
QMAKESPEC=win32-msvc.net
QTDIR=C:\Pgms\Qt\4.5.0
QTJAVA=C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_07\lib\ext\QTJava.zip
QT_INSTALL_EXAMPLES=C:\Pgms\Qt\4.5.0\examples

In the IDE I do have Qt set to 4.5.0

Here is my .pro file:
