Martin,
I have modified the script to compile LibreCAD under windows a bit
so it will work with a stock Qt SDK and Stock boost installation.
Is it possible for you to checkout this code later this week and see if
it still works in Visual Studio?
thanks!
Regards,
Ries van Twisk

pull request can not be applied cleanly.
Huh? Are you sure that said request is from me? I did not issue a pull request,
at least not intentionally (my working copy does not know about any other
upstream repositories yet, so this is improbable). Thanks for your patient
Git support, though!

I tend to actively adapt to C++11. The reason: Qt5 will be C++11, and we
have no intention to hold back everything for Windows compiler, as windows
version of Qt-creator can be used for windows.
It seems that Qt 4.8 is already moving into that direction.

If LibreCAD switches to Qt5 and thus doesn't support some compilers, that
would be fine with me. I _do_ know that VC 7.1 is somewhat outdated :-)
That would be a good time and reason to scrap MS and move over to BSD
and gcc (or llvm) ...
Greetings
