it is possible to link applications compiled with MinGW to
dll-Files compiled with MS Visual Studio.
So in theory it is possible to link your MinGW/QT-Application to Epics
base compiled with MS Visual C++.
In practice you get a lot of errors from MinGW, when including Epics
include-files and you cant' use modules which don't compile with
MS Visual C++ (e.g. asyn).
I don't know, if the GPLed version of QT can easily be compiled with
the free Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler, but this could be an option too.
The combination of QT and Eclipse with the C/C++-Plugin gives a very
nice cross-platform development tool, which could make it a candidate
for Epics Office.

Hi,
Has anyone done any work with Trolltech's Qt cross-platform classes and EPICS Channel Access?
I am about to begin development of a set of EPICS client applications using Qt so the applications can be compiled and run on workstations running Windows, Linux, and MacOS. I have done some poking around, and so far have failed to turn up any mention of use of the Channel Access libraries with Qt.
Have I overlooked something obvious? Anyone know of any effort on this front? Seems unlike I am the first to work on this.
Thanks in advance for any info.
