Compiling QT program with Wiiyourself error help

Hey Team,

I am trying to write a program that interfaces with the Wii balance board using the wiiyourself library (http://wiiyourself.gl.tter.org/). When I include the files into my project as it states in the readme, it throws up tonnes of compile error messages, mainly :

error: cannot convert 'const char*' to 'const TCHAR* {aka const wchar_t*}' in initialization

There is about 100 of these errors in the wiimote.cpp which came from the wiiyourself library.

Some of the other errors include:

error: '_vsnprintf' was not declared in this scope
error: cannot convert 'const char*' to 'LPCWSTR {aka const wchar_t*}' for argument '1' to 'HINSTANCE__* LoadLibraryW(LPCWSTR)'
etc etc

Can this library be compiled with MINGW, if so what am I missing? (I have written my program and chosen other libraries based on MINGW so don't want to change if possible).

Thanks in advance.
