I have a Qt application that I can compile in Ubuntu 10.04 64-bit and on Windows. However, I would like to avoid switching to Windows every time I want to compile the Windows version.

Is there a way I can compile a Windows Qt executable in Ubuntu with mingw32 or something?

Further, is there a way to integrate that compiler into Qt Creator?
