You will have to be your own hero if you want to build with MSVC.

With the MinGW version of Qt it's pretty simple.

On Windows you will need to add the boost path to librecad/src/custom.pro (or .pri):

BOOST_DIR = C:/boost/boost_1_60_0/
BOOST_LIBDIR = C:/boost/boost_1_60_0/

That's it really... the rest of that other guide has to do with making installers,
which you don't need to do for running from Qt Creator.
