Before trying msvc, I did try the online QT installer and it neverfinished installing for me. I have found an offline installer now, will try with QTcreator and report back. In the meanwhile can you share your build ?
Thanks for helping.

Feel free to ask for any source/build files if I can provide. I've tried to run my exe files on other PCs rather than the one it is built on, but it always fails to work, possibly too much info. about the underlying Win10 system is baked into the generated binary code.

Hey,
- I Installed QT 5.9.9 (and whatever qt creator that came with it).
- I then cloned the entire drm-code from sourceforge using:
svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/drm/code/ drm-code
- I am building from this folder drm-code\tags\dream-2.1.1 => dream.pro
- Then i click Build => Build All to get below error
Project ERROR: Unknown module(s) in QT: webkitwidgets
In your "dream.pro" file, comment out the "webkitwidgets" by adding "#"tag ahead of it as followed. Save and execute qmake, and rebuild. See if it works?
qt5 {
QT += network xml widgets #webkitwidgets
....
}

I am not sure how, but I got rid of that error and fixed many other build errors. I fixed them all, and while Ijust thought it will build, I got thrown 700 more errors at me like these:
Please note whenever it cribbed about missing headers or libraries, I just downloaded the related packages from the project sites and copied the .h or .lib files to include or lib folders of my project. for example, I downloaded qwt and speex projects, and copied their .h files to include folder like this:
Not sure if thats the right way or that is the reason if I am seeing these errors. Do enlighten me if you get my issue.
Looks like missing QWT files or QWT lib not properly built. If you can, PM me via email. I'll send you my source/build. You can cross compare the difference between them and get the idea of what went wrong.
It is no mean feat to get all things running smoothly, considering all the lib/sources scattered all over the places and you have to cobble together one piece after anther.

The compiling instructions for windows is too vague and not comprehensive enough for the average person. The deeper I get into it the worse it gets. I give up. Life's too short and I'm getting older.

Ok. Ihave sent you a PM on sourceforge for this.
My mail has been bounced back?
Not sure. I havent received anything. May be please email me directly outside sourceforge on personal email ID.
