[Qt-interest] Best way to clean up Qt directory after compilation on Windows?

[Sven Grunewaldt]

Thanks for the quick answer Thiago and sorry for my veeery late response...

I rebuilt my Qt (4.7.0-beta2) today and tried "nmake clean".
It reduced the size a LOT and it only removed the tmp folders and so on.

What I noticed:
- all the *.pdb files in the lib folder were removed too - don't I need
them for debugging? I guess this is only needed when the release build
crashes and I only get a crash report from Windows.
- in /src/3rdparty/webkit/JavaScriptCore/debug|release/ is a file called
"jscore(d).lib"

Apart from that - can I safely remove the examples and demos folders?

Thanks for your help,
Sven Grunewaldt
