How do i contribute to this project?

Using Microsoft Visual Studio 2010.

Visual Studio 2010 ist the common Windows development platform. Also for this project. You need several things to setup.

Install Visual Studio with C++ Support

The visual studio C++ Express Version is free of costs and can be downloaded here.

Install Git Extensions

Because on windows systems noone uses the console it is common to use Git Extensions. It is a nice gui for git with a good integration in visual studio.

Download Qt Sourcecode and compile it.

Following this tutorial you should:

  1. Download the source-code. Qt 4.8.0 has introduced several bugs in combination with visual studio. So we have to use the most recent 4.7.X version.
  2. Set some environment variables
  3. Compile the source code as shared libraries.

Download the sourcecode
