OK.. I guess I am just new to this whole software development thing and computer thing.. those 8 years are just NOT paying off..
I built Qt.. All of Qt.. Every Single Bit of Qt. this INCLUDES the libQt*.dll files. The files are there. I built them. I installed them. I can see them from Windows Explorer. The files are there.. Granted I did not have the naming correct in the first post but now everything except the "/" seems correct. I have NO control over how CMake puts the path separators in.
Let's take a step back from this for a sec. I re-read the "Mastering CMake" book section that deals with this. From what I can gather there are two possibilities here.
I am wrong and I still don't have a clue (Most likely)
CMake doesn't support the copying under mingw makefiles. (Least likely)
Here is the directory listing for my Qt Build. Which was built with MinGW.
Directory: Microsoft.PowerShell.Core\FileSystem::C:\Developer\SDKs\qt-4.2.2\lib

No - there is also no libQtCore4.dll on windows... why don't you use the
cmake vars for this as I asked earlier?
