Hello folks,

I see very few people have read:

http://www.usatlas.bnl.gov/~fine/QtRoot/QtRoot.html#switch


It says:

" . . . By default your application does NOT use the libQt.dll at all 
To evaluate Qt implementation one needs to set 
             SET QTDIR="any value in here"
env variable manually. . . . "

Best regards,  Valeri
