For Qt, our wiki recommends 32 bit (mingw) ( http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.4/5.4.0/qt-opensource-windows-x86-mingw491_opengl-5.4.0.exe). Please note the wiki and windows building scripts (the file in LC source folder: scripts/set-windows-env.bat ) need to be updated to Qt-5.4.0 (mingw491) from Qt-5.3.2 (ming482).

The mingw 32bit based builds run on all windows versions (32 or 64 bit).

Thanks a lot dxli, I have a couple of questions:

1
when I go here
http://www.qt.io/download-open-source/#section-6
there are several downloads, do I have to download A or B?
A - Qt 5.4.0 for Windows 64-bit (VS 2013, 720 MB)    (info)
B - Qt 5.4.0 for Windows 64-bit (VS 2013, OpenGL, 709 MB)    (info)
Here in my town it takes me more than 4 hrs to download 500 megs, so I would download the right one.

2
If I create code using an x64 OS and Qt, can people that have an x86 OS and Qt work on it?
Sorry, maybe it be a stupid question, but I don't know so I'm asking

See ya.
