I have downloaded an open source Qt that target on Windows. Since I am using the VS2010 command prompt to do the installation, it automatically set the platform to msvc-2010. When I am trying to build using nmake, it took about 7-8 hours to complete the installation. During the process, I have notice that Qt is compiling the libraries which I don’t need like javascript.
May I know how can I shorten the build process since I am focusing on desktop development?
As @tibur said, you can use
jom, which is a kind of “parallel nmake”. You can also pass several options to Qt’s configure, some of which are:-releaseor-debug: build only release or debug binaries-nomake demos,-nomake examples,-nomake tools: don’t build well, demos, examples or tools.-no-webkit,-no-qt3support,-no-script,-no-scripttools: disable certain Qt modules.There may be more,
configure.exe --helpwill tell you all the options available to you.
