title: Compiling google test framework with Mingw compiler
body: <p>I have a Qt project and i wanted to use google tests framework <a href="http://code.google.com/p/googletest/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">GoogleTestFramework</a> in order to do google test. The framework compiled fine on Linux.</p>
  
  <p>I have managed to compile the libraries on windows, using tips provided in the following link: 
  <a href="http://code.google.com/p/tonatiuh/wiki/InstallingGoogleTestForWindows" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Installing Gtest without pthreads</a></p>
  
  <p>The following advice do not let me compile the libraries, because of errors due to pthreads:

  <p>I have :</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>GNU Make 3.81 for make.exe</li>
  <li>GNU Make 3.82 for mingw32-make </li>
  <li>CMake 2.8.7</li>
  <li>QT 4.7.4</li>
  <li>Qt MingW gcc v 4.4.0</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>When i try to compile my test projet, i get an error saying:
      undefined reference to '__chkstk_ms'
      File not found: gtest-all.cc</p>
  
  <p>Here is my qmake project code (I have semplified the code).</p>
