Get the Qt4 source code
Open Source developers: check out qt-copy from http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/qt-copy/ with your favorite svn client.
Download the qtwin patches
Get from unofficial (but legal) Qt4 patches for MSVC>=7.x from http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtwin/. Make sure to use the once for qt-copy! Note that Trolltech does not provide support for these compilers, so do not post any question about this patch to the Trolltech's mailing list. The files are stored in the Sourceforge SVN repository. Unpack the file in the main Qt4 directory.
Apply the KDE patches
Patch the source code with KDE's own patches first: run patches\apply_patches.bat.
Apply the qtwin patches
run installpatch4x.bat
Configure Qt
You will need openssl support - so make sure it's enabled! Also make sure that configure.exe find openssl headers and libs:
qconfigure {PLATFORM} -openssl -I "<path to openssl headers>" \
-L "<path to openssl libs>" -qdbus -I "<path to windbus headers>" \
-L "<path to windbus libs>"
{PLATFORM} can be msvc.net for msvc .NET (2003) or msvc2005 for msvc 2005. This is needed to simplify path names in the future if you did not use the commercial configure.exe GUI installer:
set QTDIR={your qt installation directory}
Note: this (QTDIR) and the subsequent environment variables described below on this page could be set globally in the "System" applet, Advanced->Environment Variables. Optionally, if you want to have multiple configurations (e.g. Qt3 and Qt4) on the same machine and account, you can enter appropriate set commands into a single .bat file, e.g. environment.bat which you can then execute once in a new cmd shell.
