Compile funq-server with MSVC

[alex-sitnikov]

This is addition to #48, I guess my problems with funq-server compilation were due to the fact that I set MSVC version of the compiler in PATH var. Hence the question: I need to automate 3rd-party application that was compiled using MSVC and when compiling funq-server with it, build script spits out tons of "undefined reference" errors. When I try to run simple test on that application with funq-server compiled with MinGW it shows couple of message boxes with errors "Unable to find entrypoint".

So, if I'm correct and these issues caused by use of MinGW, is there any way to use MSVC instead of MinGW? Would really appreciate any help on that :-)

Hello,

I do not have Windows to check this, but maybe @ubruhin can help you with that, he already tried to build for Windows.

BTW @ubruhin thanks! =))

Qt libraries are shipped separately for MSVC and for MinGW, so when installing Qt you have to select the proper variant. Maybe that was the mistake?

But I don't know more about MSVC, I never compiled Qt programs with MSVC ;)
