I ended up grabbing the qmake and moc from the KDE > distribution to accomplish this. > > I have not proceeded past compilation, because I have not had the time > to create the "glue" libraries between Qt's .lib files and the .a format > of the GNU tools. > > Also, some Windows concepts are not available on cygwin, such as COM/ActiveX. Can anyone tell me if this is still true ? > So, the use of cygwin/gcc as a complete environment may never be possible > for your application. > Ralf -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Bug reporting: http://cygwin.com/bugs.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
