I'm new to Qt and I'm trying to implement a simple shared library for use in another application. I've read the wiki and other docs, but even after carefully following the steps, the compiler will always throw an error saying it can't find my header files.
I'm using Qt MinGW on Windows 10. Here's what I did:
The wiki is not helpful here at all. It tells me, "MinGW compiled linking libraries are in .a, but you will need to add it manually (as of Qt Creator 2.7). You could also try simply linking the .dll directly cause it would probably work." I'm like WHAT?
hello's .pro file
QT += core gui
greaterThan(QT_MAJOR_VERSION, 4): QT += widgets
TARGET = hello
TEMPLATE = app
SOURCES += main.cpp\
mainwindow.cpp\
C:/Users/sagar.JARVISAIO/Documents/libgx/libgx.cpp
HEADERS += mainwindow.h\
C:/Users/sagar.JARVISAIO/Documents/libgx/libgx.h
FORMS += mainwindow.ui
win32:CONFIG(release, debug|release): LIBS += -L$$PWD/../build-libgx-Desktop_Qt_5_5_0_MinGW_32bit-Release/release/ -llibgx
else:win32:CONFIG(debug, debug|release): LIBS += -L$$PWD/../build-libgx-Desktop_Qt_5_5_0_MinGW_32bit-Release/debug/ -llibgx
else:unix: LIBS += -L$$PWD/../build-libgx-Desktop_Qt_5_5_0_MinGW_32bit-Release/ -llibgx
INCLUDEPATH += $$PWD/../build-libgx-Desktop_Qt_5_5_0_MinGW_32bit-Release/release
DEPENDPATH += $$PWD/../build-libgx-Desktop_Qt_5_5_0_MinGW_32bit-Release/release
I manually added the headers and the library files in the .pro file using the procedure here . Never going to bother with that "wizard" again. It was unnecessarily adding a $$PWD variable in all my paths which I think was causing my problem.
