Sure, I'm using Xming as a XServer.

I do not want to avoid using a X11 library. I know I need a X11
library in windows.

I think after compiling the X11 libraries for windows, I should also
make some additional configurations in qmake.conf or makefiles to make
mingw compiler to build by Qt applicatioın with X11 libraries. Do you
have also such experience?

I know I will not directly use and X11 API if I use Qt framework. I
want to say that I prefer using Qt (and its X11 bindings) instead of
using other X11 ports for windows.
