Greetings,

I'm compiling in Windows Vista and I use these instructions:
http://www.mip.sdu.dk/robwork/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=61:compiling-robwork-and-robworkstudio-on-visual-studio-2005&catid=43:installation&Itemid=67
I tried both Visual Studio 2005 and 2008. Compiling RobWork is OK, the
problem is with installing QT. Everything works fine until I do step
5: call nmake. Then it takes veeery long time and this error is
result: http://img159.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=86323_error_122_207lo.jpg

I also tried compiling with Eclipse:
http://www.mip.sdu.dk/robwork/joomla/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=64:installation-and-compiling-on-windows-with-mingw&catid=43:installation&Itemid=67
Again, RobWork is copiled fine, but compilation of RobWorkStudio
doesn't start at all and the console shows this message:

make all
make: *** No rule to make target `all'. Stop.

That's all I can say about it. I know I'm not the only one with
problems, actually I don't know anyone with Windows who succeeded
compiling RobWorkStudio.

Best regards

Petr

Hi
The problem you have with QT has appeared to be a quite common problem. The stuff it complain about is in a package not used by QT. The easiest fix is therefore to disable the webkit. I recently updated the QT installation tutorial on the webpage to include the argument "-no-webkit", which will fix the problem. Unfortunately this mean you will have to reconfigure and recompile QT, which is somewhat time consuming.

If you still have problems you can consult the homepage
http://dcsoft.com/community_server/blogs/dcsoft/archive/2009/03/06/how-to-setup-qt-4-5-visual-studio-integration.aspx
on which there are quite a few hints to where things might go wrong.

Hi,

I tried "-no-webkit", but that didn't help, only the error looks
different: http://img126.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=44497_error3_122_23lo.jpg

I also looked on the webpage you posted, but I didn't find there
anything which would now help.

Hey Petr,

Seems like your compiling in debug. Could you check how much actually did
get compiled. (screenshot of the qt\bin dir)

Unfortunately repeating nmake didn't work, the error is still there.
As for the qt\bin dir, there are two possible: C:\Qt\2009.04\bin or C:
\Qt\2009.04\qt\bin. Which one would you like to see?

Its the \Qt\2009.04\qt\bin dir

Here you go:

http://img202.imagevenue.com/img.php?image=76586_2_122_133lo.jpg

But I'm not sure this is going to help, because all these files are
there before running nmake. The only thing different is theirs size,
which is smaller in some files after nmake (with error) then before
it.

Heureka! I finally compiled QT! Don't even ask what was the
problem...disable antivirus, that's all. But my victory was very short:
( When I try to build RobWorkStudio with Visual Studio 2005, I get
this error:

Error 30 error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "Rcc'ing
rwstudio_resources.qrc..." RobWorkStudio

Any advice here?

Hi, this is a nown error and a robwork one... sorry.

Bøgild wrote this earlier:

RWS:
In RobWorkStudio/src/main.cpp line 48 : change 'plugins' to 'sandbox/
plugins'
In RobWorkStudio/src/rws/rwstudio_resources.qrc line 28 : change 'plugins'
to 'sandbox/plugins'

Even with these changes it was still imposible to successfully compile a
plugin. Compiling went fine but in the final linking the build system tries
to link librwstudio_components which does not exist anywhere.

I ended up checking out and exporting a fresh SVN version of RW/RWS/ RWHW to
replace the ones from the RobWork installer which solved the problem.

YES YES YES YES YES! I'm sorry but finally it's working, so I'm really
happy:) Thank you Jimmy for your patience and for all help you gave
me!
I wish you all the best!
