We will need scons/qt4.py changes, and maybe use scons svn. I can
manage to get a copy of VC (I am not sure) so this may be doable.
However, what will be the benefit of this approach? Will we be able to
use of VC IDE/debugger?
Yes.
Will VC++ compiles faster or get faster lyx?
Much faster. Even if lyx/qt4 compilation is pretty much OK with Scons
nowadays...
Plus I am pretty sure that the resulting binary will be much faster too.
Abdel.
