For displaying charts in my C++ project, I want to use QWT with Qt. I have downloaded QWT of the last version from sourceforge, and I have downloaded Qt libraries 4.8.1 for MSVC2008 (my compiler) from the official web page. Now I want to install QWT, but I cannot complete the installation. The threads I had found on SO did not resolve my problem.

This is the installation as explained in the documentation to QWT:

F.e Qt >= 3.0, MSVC with nmake:
qmake qwt.pro
nmake
cd examples
qmake examples.pro
nmake

I launch qmake from Qt 4.8.1 Command Prompt, it creates three *Makefile*s. Now I am supposed to start nmake, but nmake fails without being able to find any Qt header file. I call nmake from the Visual Studio command prompt.

c:\program files (x86)\qwt\include\qwt_array.h(25) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'qmemarray.h': No such file or directory
qwt_plot_curve.cpp
c:\program files (x86)\qwt\include\qwt_array.h(25) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'qmemarray.h': No such file or directory
qwt_plot_grid.cpp

qwt_plot_item.cpp
c:\program files (x86)\qwt\include\qwt_array.h(25) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'qmemarray.h': No such file or directory
Generating Code...
Compiling...
qwt_plot_print.cpp
src\qwt_plot_print.cpp(14) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'qpaintdevicemetrics.h': No such file or directory

What do I do wrong? How should I install QWT so that it sees my Qt include files?

Thank you in advance!

OK, I solved my problem by downloading the latest release candidate version of QWT and following the instructions to this version in INSTALL file. But why the old version did not compile - I haven't got any clue!
