Qt in Visual Studio 2010 messes up other libs

I installed the Visual Studio 2010 add in for Qt, and I added SPARK to my engine. I went to link my Qt editor project to my engine (which now depends on SPARK) and I get this huge list of errors:

I tried asking on the SPARK forum but no one answered. When I try linking to my engine and SPARK in a normal test project it compiles and runs just fine, but as soon as I try to use Qt it gets totally messed up. Does anyone know why it might doing this?

Based on http://spark.developpez.com/doc/_s_p_k___emitter_8h_source.html it looks like line 226 is:

void emit(Particle& particle) const;

I'm guessing you have a "typedef void Particle;" or similar elsewhere in the code that is conflicting.

I haven't typedef'd anything to have the name Particle. But I think Qt might have a class named Particle. How can I make sure that Qt's is not used?

From what Adam_42 wrote, I assume the problem is the emit keyword of Qt. The Qt documentation suggests this workaround: http://developer.qt.nokia.com/doc/qt-4.8/signalsandslots.html#using-qt-with-3rd-party-signals-and-slots

That's probably it. I'll post back once I try and see. I'm going to have to create a different project file so it will take a little bit. Thanks.

How do you disable the Qt keywords in Visual Studio? I can't find anything aside from .pro file documentation.

It's written in link that brx posted: http://developer.qt....gnals-and-slots Read the section "Using Qt with 3rd Party Signals and Slots" at the bottom of page.
