is anybody working (worked) with Qt 3.3.7 in Windows?

Message 1 in thread
I just found Qt 3.3.7 ported to Windows. Looks like it is not clearly
developed port but there are several other versions of Qt3 on this server.
I tried install this Qt to same comp where Qt4 already exists. They do not
conflict in any SET variables or program path. But I cannot configure
package, getting error message from make:
---
C:\Qt\3.3.7\misc\link_includes>mingw32-make -f Makefile.win32-g++
/bin/sh: -c: line 2: syntax error: unexpected end of file
mingw32-make: *** [tmp\moc\release-shared-mt] Error 258
---
can anybody help with this? May be this is same stupid error like another I
found in configure.bat. But may be somebody came this way and can help me
quickly, ha?

Huh? What do you mean by "ported to windows"? Qt-3.3.7 is distributed
windows-ready from Trolltech - no need to port anything ...

I have 'em both running in perfect unity here :-) Thank goodness Qt4 does
not depend on any Environment Variables (besides QMAKESPECS maybe) :-))

IIRC Qt-3.3.7 still comes with an installer for the windows version - no
need to run mingw32-make manually ...

When working with Qt3+mingw32 you should _NOT_ have any executable called
"sh" in your path to force mingw32-make to use cmd.exe...
All said above is based on commercial version of Qt - I don't know about
OpenSource version ...

looks like this is a port, not native build
I downloaded it not from TT server, there are no Qt3 there...
but may be I'm wrong

Where I can get this OpenSourced?

I just took a quick look. I fear there were no opensource qt3-windows
versions at ftp://ftp.trolltech.com/qt/source/ :-( They start with qt4.0.0
...
Sorry - I didn't know that ...

Hope that helped you a bit ;-) Maybe you can get your port running :-))

Does that mean that if I develop an open source under 3.3.x, nobody can
use it on windows?

AFAIK, that means that if you develop under 3.3.x, you will have to try to
compile Linux's version in windows. I suggest you better develop under Qt 4.x

Pretty much.
Q../Free (sf.net/projects/qtfree) is an attempt to port the X11 Qt to
Windows. It's OK for basic stuff but not something I'd want to rely on.
I very strongly suggest you just use Qt4. Developing against qt3 now is
shackling yourself to a dependency that'll be obsoleted and phased out
at some point. Qt4 is also not just a new version for the fun of it ; it
has some significant cleanups and improvements.

Qt3 hit official end-of-life a month ago (7/1/2007) - see

but I've got project developed for Qt3 Linux and I've port it to Windows
I've already started redesign this project using Qt4 (see my prev thread
about porting) but this takes time
I need fast solution... Thus I found this port of 3.3.7
Now it builds libraries and executables, thanx to Malte Witt's help
What if all samples will work good, what if my application will work
good?...

I *really* wonder why people can't read...
From the project site: "Please keep in mind that we have *nothing* to do with the official Qt/win from Trolltech and don't ask question about problems compiling and using our sources on official Trolltech lists."

Well,
people here probably don't know much about the specialities of that port.
Anyways - the problem mentioned is a problem that arises with the official
(commercial) windows release as well ... so why not ask for help?
Besides - it's not always easy to find the right place for those kind of
questions ...

The poster did not even made a single attempt to ask for help there (and did not read anything on the page) - there's a bugtracker + mailing list... also he used an old outdated version. I really don't think they should bother official tt lists with questions regarding installing and using this port...

1. this is another port from another site
2. there is no message "don't ask question about problems compiling and
using our sources on official Trolltech lists" on the site
2. there IS message on the site: "The Q... for windows edition (The name
Q... is choosen because of trademark issues) is a *NATIVE win32 port of the
gpl'ed Qt/x11 sources*."
3. nobody told it is prohibited to discuss this port here
4. nobody told outdated version questions are prohibited here
5. don't fantasy what didn't happen
6. ready carefully question asked - it sounds like "is anybody working..."

Don't bother, that port is unfinished and always will be. AFAIK only
parts of the gui stuff work and sql, network and all that don't work at
all. I'd suggest to use Qt4 instead thats opensource for windows
already, much easier to setup and you don't have a hard time figuring
out wether a bug comes from your application or a bug in the port.

IANAL nor a trolltech official, but I think that's pretty much true :-( If
you are free of choice, you should defenitely use Qt4 for following
reasons (besides others):
1.) Qt4 is available as open source version on all supported platforms,
including windows
2.) Qt3 has reached its end-of-life :-(
3.) Way better design of the Qt4 library :-)
4.) I love it ;-)

Malte
