Yes, you're right. It applies to building with VS too.
BTW, is this "no spaces" restriction likely to be fixed in the future ?

Hi,

I don't know. The root of the problem is not necessarily within Qt.

The cause of the problem could be :

* Within Qt and specifically qmake
I seem to recall "space" issues had been fixed, but if you find one 
specifically related to qmake, please send a but report to Trolltech.

* With the shell (if using Makefiles)
It depends on which shell you're using, I think that when using the Visual 
tools it's usually the standard Windows CMD.EXE shell. This can be fixed

* With the compiler itself, and related tools such as nmake
I seem to recall there used to be issues with some Microsoft tools, probably 
version VC++ 6. I don't know about the current status...

You'd have to show us the errors messages with the complete command lines that 
generate it, to help deciding whether it's a bug in Qt, in which case a bug 
report should be sent to Trolltech, or a problem with the shell or the 
compiler, in which case proper escaping might help.
