copied!<p>Here is as far as I'm going to get on this:</p> <p>You can target Windows 98 using MinGW or VC++ 6 SP5 from any Windows version. Cross-compiling from Linux is doable but not easy to <a href="http://lists.trolltech.com/qt-interest/2006-03/thread00351-0.html" rel="noreferrer">set up</a>.</p> <p>Qt 4.4.3 was the last version officially tested on Win98. To run the distributed <a href="ftp://ftp.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-win-opensource-4.4.3-mingw.exe" rel="noreferrer">binaries</a> on Win98, you need to install older versions of glu32.dll and opengl32.dll that are available from <a href="ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/softlib/mslfiles/opengl95.exe" rel="noreferrer">Microsoft</a>. Due to an unresolved bug, Assistant will launch but can't load the help files. The alternate version in the bin directory, assistant_adp.exe, works fine. It seems the only other potential problem is that QtOpenGL may use features not available on older boxes.</p> <p>Qt 4.5.3 appears to be still compatible except for WebKit, OpenGL, and Phonon. QtOpenGL expects OpenGL 1.5, which I don't know is even possible on older boxes. I didn't look into Phonon deeply enough to see exactly what the problems are. QtWebKit now requires Win2K or better. The distributed <a href="ftp://ftp.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-win-opensource-4.5.3-mingw.exe" rel="noreferrer">binaries</a> work mostly OK. Assistant depends on QtWebKit, so will not launch, but assistant_adp.exe still works.</p> <p>Qt 4.6.3 distributed <a href="ftp://ftp.qt.nokia.com/qt/source/qt-win-opensource-4.6.3-mingw.exe" rel="noreferrer">binaries</a> are now completely incompatible with Win98. It may be possible to get some things working with MinGW 4.4 and a lot of hacking.</p> <p>Building Qt Creator requires Qt 4.6.0 and either MinGW 4.4 or VS 2008.</p>
