Moving a Qt installation

Message 1 in thread

I'm trying to make a "movable" Qt installation on Windows for 
development with Visual Studio 2003 compiler and eclipse. I try to 
achieve this by modifying bin/qt.conf into my Qt folder:


[Paths]
   Prefix = E:/CD/Workspace/QT



This works partialy:
  - Assistant works
  - Designer works
  - qmake works

But I have some problems with moc in the following scenario:

qmake -project: works fine
qmake -win32  : produces a makefile
nmake         : works fine, except of moc


The moc targets are added to the makefile and they show up when 
executing nmake. But no moc_* files are generated (and no errors are 
shown). An Example target:

E:/CD/Workspace/QT/bin\moc.exe $(DEFINES) $(INCPATH) gui\MdiArea.h -o 
debug\moc_MdiArea.cpp

This expands to:

E:/CD/Workspace/QT/bin\moc.exe -DUNICODE -DQT_LARGEFILE_SUPPORT -DWIN32 
-DQT_DLL -DQT_XML_LIB -DQT_GUI_LIB -DQT_CORE_LIB -DQT_THREAD_SUPPORT 
-I"..\QT\include\QtCore" -I"..\QT\include\QtCore" 
-I"..\QT\include\QtGui" -I"..\QT\include\QtGui" -I"..\QT\include\QtXml" 
-I"..\QT\include\QtXml" -I"..\QT\include" -I"..\mp\libs\baselib\include" 
-I"..\mp\libs\Elmien\include" -I"..\mp\libs\Q4JrsMediaPlayer\include" 
-I"..\mp\libs\Q4JrsMediaPlayer\GeneratedFiles" 
-I"..\mp\libs\mmdataio\include" -I"." -I"..\QT\include\ActiveQt" 
-I"debug" -I"." -I"..\QT\mkspecs\win32-msvc.net" gui\MdiArea.h -o 
debug\moc_MdiArea.cpp


If I copy the above to a command line, it executes fine (and produces 
moc_MdiArea.cpp).


If I change the forward slashes to backslashes in the path to moc inside 
the makefile, it works too:

E:\CD\Workspace\QT\bin\moc.exe $(DEFINES) $(INCPATH) gui\MdiArea.h -o 
debug\moc_MdiArea.cpp


So it seems that there is a problem with forward slashes in the path to 
moc inside the makefile. For other paths, the forward slashes of qt.conf 
are converted to backslashes:
QMAKE         = e:\CD\Workspace\QT\bin\qmake.exe
IDC           = e:\CD\Workspace\QT\bin\idc.exe


If I enter backward slashes instead of the forward ones into qt.conf, 
nothing works (qmake, assistant, designer).

Does anyone know a solution the problem?

Thank you in advance,

Benjamin

I do not know if this will help your issue, but you might look at
