Failed to build qt5.5 on windows7 using mingw64

[leeguevara]

Hello everyone,

I built qt5.5 on windows7 using mingw64 in windows cmd-shell.
Configuration is OK, the configure code is :

cd c:\msys64\home\lim\qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.5.0
set INCLUDE=C:\msys64\home\lim\icu\dist\include
set LIB=C:\msys64\home\lim\icu\dist\lib

Info: creating super cache file C:\msys64\home\lim\qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.5.0.qmake.super

Qt is now configured for building. Just run mingw32-make.
To reconfigure, run mingw32-make confclean and configure.
There are some errors in building progress.

Then I started "mingw32-make -j4"
The error message is:

The error message show some macros are defined in the qzip.cpp are conflicted with the same macros defined in c:/msys64/mingw64/x86_64-w64-mingw32/include/sys/stat.h

PS: The build is in the windows cmd-shell
PS: I use ICU lib built in msys2 environment.

Please help me, thanks a lot.

Hi and welcome to devnet

I have added code tags to the listing of errors. This avoids the interpretation of the fence signs as formatting tags.

Hi and welcome to devnet,

Not necessarily the answer you are looking but the guys here are providing 64 bit MinGW builds of Qt.

Hope it helps
