qwt 5.2.0 msvc2008 build Qt 4.6.0

[hml]

Hello

I am trying to build 5.2.0 for msvc2008 with Qt 4.6.0 (vs2008)

I did the workaround that generated the errors with Qt4.6.0 and built with nmake.
The .dll and .lib are generated correctly, however I think it only built in release.

As I don't know how to choose debug target for nmake (i'm sure it's trivial), I looked at generating the vs2008 .vcproj or .sln.

There's no admin directory in qwt 5.2.0

The INSTALL file should probably be updated,

Regards,

The admin directory apparently holds the qmake-msvc.bat file that allows to generate project files for vs2008

There looks to be an error in qwtconfig.pri for debug/release

release_and_release is probably wrong and should be debug_and_release.

this has worked now.
I have both release and debug lib/dlls
and will try to use it in my application.

I think a separate include directory would be better than have the header files in the 'src' dir.
