Building DeepSkyStacker:

You will need to install Visual Studio 2019 (16.7.1), Qt 5.15.0 and Qt VS Tools 2.5.2 for VS2019.

You will need to use QT VS Tools Options dialog to set up two named Qt Installations:

1. Called 5.15.0x86 pointing to msvc2019 sub-directory of your Qt install
	for example C:\Qt\5.15.0\msvc2019
2. Called 5.15.0x64 pointing to the msvc2019_64 sub-directory of your Qt install
	for example C:\Qt\5.15.0\msvc2019_64

In addition you will need to set an environment variable called QtInstDir set to the value C:\Qt\5.15.0\msvc2019_64 (assuming you are running on 64-bit Windows).
