Requirement: Qt > 4.8 (works in Qt 4.8.2 and in Qt 5.3 as well).

This method will produce a single executable file with integrated project libraries.

Open zodiac/zodiac_bundle.pro in Qt Creator, select a build configuration (Debug or Release) then build (Ctrl+B).

Open all.pro in Qt Creator, and build it as usual. It will produce a main executable (zodiac) with a few dynamic libraries.

This is a variation of 'method 2' that supposes manual building of all subprojects. Open projects in QtCreator and build them manually in the following order:

1. swe/swe.pro
2. astroprocessor/astroprocessor.pro
3. chart/chart.pro
fileeditor/fileeditor.pro
plain/plain.pro
planets/planets.pro
planets/details.pro
4. zodiac/zodiac.pro

To run application on Windows after build, put following Qt libraries into app directory:

imageformats/qgif.dll
imageformats/qico.dll
imageformats/qjpeg.dll
platforms/qwindows.dll

In Qt 5.2, they are located in C:\Qt\5.2.1\mingw48_32\plugins.
