VLC 0.9.2 compiling problem: problem with qt4

[nicopam]

I've got the same problem cross-compiling with mingw from linux.
I solved (perhaps!) copying usr/include/w32api/* in /usr/i686-mingw32/usr/include/ (where my cross-compiler resides, of course).
I'm shure i'll have big problems runtime, however, because I keep the original libraries!
Does someone know where to get the right win32api for mingw?

Thanks in advance.

[VLC_help]

Use cygwin setup.exe to download latest mingw stuff, if you messed those.

There are many books about programming. If you are interested about GCC, there is The Definitive Guide to GCC. But there are many good internet resources and tutorials, if you want to study online.
