Qt driver for PostgreSQL compilation error

Question

When compiling psql with following command:

cd %QTDIR%\src\plugins\sqldrivers\psql
qmake "INCLUDEPATH+=D:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\include" "LIBS+=D:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\lib\libpq.lib" psql.pro
make

I got following message:

... g++: Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\lib -Lc:\Qt\2010.05\qt\lib tmp\obj\debug_shared\qsqlpsqld_resource_res.o D:\Progra~1\PostgreSQL\8.3\lib\libpq.lib -lQtSqld4 -lQtCored4 : Invalid argument  
make[1]: *** [..\..\..\..\plugins\sqldrivers\qsqlpsqld4.dll] Error 1  
make[1]: Leaving directory `C:/Qt/2010.05/qt/src/plugins/sqldrivers/psql'  
make: *** [debug-all] Error 2

Replacement D:\Program Files -> D:\Progra~1 doesn't change anything. How to solve that problem?

Try using single quotes instead of double quotes in the qmake invocation. If that fails, try using forward slashes instead of backslashes in the path.

Commands should be:

cd %QTDIR%\src\plugins\sqldrivers\psql
qmake "INCLUDEPATH+=D:\Progra~1\PostgreSQL\8.3\include" "LIBS+=D:\Progra~1\PostgreSQL\8.3\lib\libpq.lib" psql.pro

then it is needed to manually fix Makefiles (Debug and Release) to exclude all occurencies of space in dirname, then run

make
